Toothgnasher (Earth-616)

History

Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder are the mystical goats of Thor that pull his chariot.

Thor left Toothgnasher in charge of guarding a Mjolnir from another dimension after it caused his best friend Volstagg to become a murderous maniac. After Volstagg regained the hammer, Toothgnasher ambushed him in the old City of Asgard in the Asgard-realm in order to make Volstagg relinquish the hammer. However, Toothgnasher was unexpectedly grabbed by the monster Mangog and brutally decapitated.^[2]

After the War of the Realms, Loki decided to do a favor for Thor, and using the Norn Stones ressurected Toothgnasher.^[3]

Notes

• Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder are based on Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr, the goats of Norse mythology that pull Thor's chariot.
