Stormbreaker is without doubt my favourite weapon in the MCU, not just because of its power (second only to the IG) but how it looks with part of Groot as its handle, how it’s forged and the legacy behind it.
A few questions about Stormbreaker:
- In the comics was it often wielded by other heroes of similar power to Thor? E.g. Hulk & Captain Marvel? Or mostly by other similarly powerful Asgardians? I know only very powerful beings can carry Stormbreaker, as also implied by Thor in IW.
- Who do you think is most likely to end up wielding Stormbreaker other than Thor in future movies (assuming they go down this route)? It would be amazing to see Hulk use it!
I note Groot briefly carried it to create the handle for Thor, but it doesn't seem like he is powerful enough to use it without incurring side effects or damage.
As cool as it would be to see Captain America use it in the MCU, it should be way too powerful for someone at his level - in this way it increases the specialty / uniqueness of the weapon.
