Her helmet is also longer than Thor's, with the whole face and the jaw covered. Her helmet has an Asgardian pattern on the front and has wing-like structures on both sides, with a forming curve tower-like structure at the top.
Personality[]
Jane Foster is an extremely intelligent scientist, who has a strong dedication towards uncovering scientific truths, mainly in astrophysics. Foster has devoted her life to science, having built most of her equipment herself, and is willing to do anything for her research.
Because of her investment in scientific research, Foster finds herself most confident in situations that cater for it, and finds working helpful to calm her. However, outside of her area of expertise, Foster can be awkward in social settings, as she doesn't interact with many people outside of the scientific community, also stating that she never has guests.
History[]
Dr. Jane Foster was a physicist who helped the Avengers bring Iron Man back home from the dimension he was trapped in with a portal beacon. However, this was interrupted by the arrival of the Leader, who came to steal the beacon.
After she was informed by the new Avengers that the old team had been teleported away, Jane used the tech she was using to find Iron Man to locate the other Avengers, and she was able send the new Avengers across space and time to retrieve the lost members.
When he Avengers were kidnapped by the Beyonder, Jane joined the fight and was able to wield Mjolnir to free Thor and the other Avengers as the new Thor. After she helped Thor defeat Loki and save the Nine Realms from his evil magic, she returned the hammer to Thor, but Odin gave Jane a magical mace and dubbed her "Thunderstrike." As Thunderstrike, Jane has powers similar to those of Thor.
