Who is Hermod?

Hermod is an Asgardian god drawn from Norse mythology, where he was known as the swift messenger of the gods. In Marvel's universe, he dwells in Asgard among the pantheon including Thor, Odin, and Heimdall.

Born in the Bronze Age pages of Thor Annual #7 (1978) β€” brought to life by the legendary trio of Roy Thomas, Walt Simonson, and Ernie Chan β€” Hermod is a figure drawn straight from the depths of Norse mythology and given vivid Marvel life amid the thunder and grandeur of Asgard. Sharing the cosmic stage with the likes of Thor, Odin, Heimdall, and Skurge, this character keeps genuinely exalted company. What's quietly remarkable is the longevity: a presence that has stretched from 1978 all the way into Immortal Thor and beyond, nearly five decades of appearances that speak to an enduring place in Marvel's mythological tapestry. Collectors with a taste for Asgardian lore and a love of deep-cut divine figures will find Hermod a rewarding thread to follow through Marvel history.
