Whosoever holds this hammer, if she be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.

Marvel's new Thor will be a woman. With the launch of a new storyline next month, Marvel has begun teasing the new (note: not gender-swapped) God of Thunder, including this shot of hammer Mjolnir's new, ever-so-slightly changed inscription.
