Summary

Visionis one ofthe most hefty of the Avengers(though with confessedly untapped voltage in theMCU ) - but at least one of his defining moments might not be as impressive as it first appeared . Vision ’s MCU futureis currently unclear , with his most recent appearance being 3 years ago inWandaVision . This saw a variant of Vision that was recreated by Wanda Maximoff ’s brawny chaos illusion go toe - to - toe with his rebuilt synthezoid body before restore his memories to the newly dubbed " White Vision " and being wipe once more from reality . White Vision , meanwhile , flew off into MCU uncertainty .

The oracular nature of Vision is nothing new , however . His conception inAvengers : Age of Ultronwas part of a miasm of destiny for which Tony Stark , Bruce Banner , Ultron , Helen Cho , and the Mind Stone were all partly responsible for . gratefully for the Avengers , his generation came with his tacit allegiance to their grounds after specifically express his will to protect humanity . presently thereafter came ashocking MCU momentin which Vision effortlessly lift Thor ’s hammer , Mjolnir , which seemed to cement his virgin nature . Despite being virtuous , however , one possibility state that this was not because he was worthy .

Thor ’s pound Mjolnir was the most historied weapon in the MCU . Who else besides the God of Thunder did the pound deem suitable to lift it ?

Vision Lifting Mjolnir May Have Been Because He’s Not Traditionally Alive

Vision ’s creation was ostensibly to become Ultron ’s terminal , everlasting form . With Helen Cho ’s help and the use of the Regeneration Chamber , Ultron created Vision as a synthezoid , a construct made of both artificial constitutional tissue and Vibranium , making Vision - despite appearances - an android . give that an humanoid is a robot , thus not frame of the same biological flesh and blood as animals , his physical structure is tantamount to an inanimate object given sensory faculty .

This creates a loophole through which Vision can " lift " Mjolnir . Because the consequence of what it think to lift an target are nebulous , Mjolnir has been at least supported by various objects throughout its MCU history , with the most recent being a coating hanger in Thor and Love ’s spot of mansion house inThor : Love & Thunder . A coat hanger , tabular array , or the floor is not view " worthy " of holding Mjolnir for obvious intellect , though it is through the same constabulary of metaphysics that Mjolnir can be support and nobble by Vision .

What Makes Someone Worthy To Wield Thor’s Hammer?

Mjolnir ’s worthiness clause is one of the MCU ’s most heatedly fence topics thanks to the undefined wording of Odin ’s original enthrallment : " Whosoever book this hammer , if he be desirable , shall possess the power of Thor . " Therefore , the specifics of what this worthiness entail can only be derived from grounds demonstrated by everyone who wielded Mjolnir in the past tense . apart from Vision , other character who wielded Mjolnir after Odin ’s enchantment was placed upon it were Thor and Captain America .

Although Hela was consider holding Mjolnir and destroying it , few believe that this is because she is " worthy . " This is more likely due to her incredible index overcoming even that of Mjolnir , as it was not lifted but cease before being effortlessly destruct . Jane Foster ’s Mighty Thor , meanwhile , was able to wield Mjolnir after Thor ’s sub - enchantment constipate the hammer to her protection in her time of need - though there are strong statement to suggest thatthe Mighty Thor was suitable , no matter .

Thor was the only one able to pilfer the Mjolnir for the longest time , but things are different with Stormbreaker because everyone can apply it - why ?

In Thor and Captain America ’s case , these characters had a proven propensity to make the ultimate sacrifice for the auspices of the great commodity . possibility abound over which other MCU type could lift Mjolnir if given the chance , but Thor and Steve Rogers ' share trait let in valorousness , virtuousness , and altruism , are good indicators of what Mjolnir considers to be suitable . While these trait could arguably be ascribe toVision , the lack of significant reward when compared to Captain America make this nonhuman theory all the more compelling .
