\"Endgame<\/p>\n

* SPOILERS BELOW *<\/strong><\/p>\n

People deal with grief in different ways, and many of them are not healthy. Marvel’s<\/a> “Avengers: Endgame<\/a>” starts Thor off in a bad mental place, where he is stewing in his failure to properly behead the mad Titan. He’s off in the corner of the room, not saying a word, and when it comes time to face Thanos again he decapitates him before the rest of the team is ready. He flies off and that’s the last we see of the thunder god until five years later – five years that were less than kind to him.<\/p>\n

The ending of “Avengers: Infinity War<\/a>” is the biggest tragedy in the history of the universe. Billions of organisms (remember, it’s all life; not just people) are turned to dust. The Avengers failed to save the day. The bad guy succeeded in his plan, and then he got away. They didn’t even get to ‘avenge’ the fallen properly. It’s a crippling blow for our heroes’ morale, and for Thor, it was even worse since, at least in his mind, he’s the only one who might have been able to stop Thanos (“should’ve gone for the head”). It was a particularly bad time for the Asgardian to fail once again. We’re shown a candid perspective of Thor’s mental place before he forges Stormbreaker during a conversation with Rocket. Even as far back as then, the poor guy really needed some therapy:<\/p>\n
