As an expert in the field of comic book lore and superhero abilities, I can provide an analysis of whether Spider-Man could wield Thor's hammer, Mjolnir.

In the Marvel Universe, Thor's hammer, Mjolnir, is known to be enchanted so that only those who are deemed "worthy" can lift it. This enchantment was placed by Odin and is a significant aspect of the hammer's lore. Worthiness is not just about physical strength but also about having the right intentions, a pure heart, and being deserving of the power that Mjolnir wields.

Spider-Man, while possessing great strength and the ability to cling to walls, is not typically considered to be one of the characters who has been deemed worthy of lifting Mjolnir in the comics. However, there have been instances in the comics where characters who were not previously considered worthy have been able to lift Mjolnir due to exceptional circumstances or changes in their character.

In the 2014 comic series "Original Sin," Nick Fury, in his prime, was revealed to have been able to lift Mjolnir because he had been deemed worthy at that time. This storyline suggests that worthiness can change and that characters who were not previously considered worthy can become worthy under certain conditions.

Moreover, in the 2015 comic series "Thor," a new female Thor was introduced, and Spider-Man was seen holding Mjolnir in one panel, suggesting that he could be worthy. However, this was not a definitive story point and could be interpreted as a symbolic gesture rather than a literal ability to wield the hammer.

In conclusion, while Spider-Man is not traditionally considered to be among the characters who are worthy of lifting Thor's hammer, there are instances in the comics that suggest it might be possible under certain conditions. The concept of worthiness is complex and can evolve over time.

In a non-continuity reference for Marvel Adventures #40 Spider-Man is shown to be able to wield Mjolnir.read more >>
