This has been bothering me about Thor. I was never a fan of the character. I never cared for me, found me unrelateable and spoken the worst dialogue of any comic character I know. Even with that I know how important the character is. With what happened in Ragnarok do the Avengers and the other Marvel heroes know of Thor's death? I don't see any mention of it in Marvel's books.

I don't have the last issue of STORMBREAKER handy, but I think Beta Ray Bill may have told Spider-Man about the whole situation in that one.

Hercules knows. In the first issue of his most recent mini-series (Labors of Hercules reality show) he is shown storming into a funeral when the Avengers are mourning someone else (Fury? I don't recall who, just now. Maybe Hawkeye, Scott Lange, Jack and Vision :o ) and he rants how can the mortals not miss Thor, not honor him, not realize he's gone. The Avengers basically say, "what are you talking about? Thor is always dropping out for periods of time, saying it's Asgardian business..." But nobody says, "What do you mean, Thor's DEAD?"

Therefore, I don't think any of the superhero community is aware of it except Herc (and therefore maybe Dr. Strange, and perhaps Moondragon or someone else on that mystic or godly plane...)
