In a November 2015 interview, Marvel Comics Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso stated: "By the way, over the summer a reader [Autumn Wheelock] contacted Russell to express her excitement about the revelation that Jane is Thor, saying that Jane's courage reminded her of her late mother's own battle with cancer. So, with the blessing of that reader and her family [Tanya and Scott Wheelock], we named the cancer center that Jane is receiving treatment at in "The Mighty Thor" #1 [by Jason Aaron and Russell Dauterman] after the reader's mother, Maria Wheelock. It's a small way of not only honoring Maria, but also acknowledging all the other real people out there who are battling or have battled this illness."
