Ever since becoming a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2o11, Thor has had a rough go of it. Over his MCU history, he's lost both of his parents before his very eyes, along with his adopted brother, his lifelong home and—to add insult to injury—his right eye. That's a lot to endure over the course of seven years for someone who lives for millennia. And while Thor may have gotten a replacement eye in Avengers: Infinity War, with his luck, he is liable to lose it again in Thor: Love and Thunder.

Here's a quick look how Thor lost and gained an eye over the course of two films, how he may lose it again and how it compares to recent developments in the comic books.

Ragnarok

Thor: Ragnarok had the Asgardians lose heavily right from the outset, with tragedy befalling them steadily throughout the film. Odin's death frees his secret daughter Hela, the Norse Goddess of Death, who immediately lays waste to Asgard, completely decimating its armies and killing the Warriors Three. After a brief period of exile on the faraway world of Sakaar, Thor returns to reclaim his throne from his evil sister, with Loki, Bruce Banner and Valkyrie in tow.

As the others assisted in rescuing the refugees hiding on the outskirts of Asgard from Hela and her undead army, Thor battled his long-lost sister in the Asgardian throne room. Despite putting up a valiant effort, Hela slashed out Thor's right eye, fulfilling his arc in the movie and completing his transformation into the more mature king his father once needed him to be. Help is shortly defeated, along with Asgard's prophesied destruction at the hands of Surtur. As Thor led his people into an uncertain future, he was seen wearing an eyepatch similar to his father.

Infinity War

The Asgardians were the first casualties seen in Avengers: Infinity War, their ship laid waste as Thanos and the Black Order recovered the Tesseract secretly kept by Loki who was killed personally by Thanos. Responding to the ship's distress call after its destruction, the spacefaring team found Thor within the ship's wreckage and miraculously still alive. To replace Mjolnir, his mythical hammer destroyed by Hela during Ragnarok, Thor left for the dwarven forge of Nidavellir with Rocket and Groot.

As the trio approach Nidavellir, located within the heart of a dying star, Rocket consoled Thor as he reflected over his recent losses. To raise his spirits, Rocket gave Thor a functioning, artificial eye he had stole from a hapless mark sometime earlier, heavily implying that he had smuggled the prosthetic in his anus. While Rocket cautioned Thor should wash the eye first, the God of Thunder instead promptly inserted it. He immediately regained his full sight through his new eye—visibly brown instead of natural blue.

The Comics

The loss of Thor's eye has been hinted at in the comics in recent years. Toward the start of Jason Aaron's acclaimed run on the character, a vision of the future incarnation of Thor is seen lacking his left eye. However, it was the recent crossover event War of the Realms that revealed what had actually occurred. The final issue of the series had Thor nailed to the World Tree Yggdrasil so he could gain the greatness of the All-Father. The fiery process proved excruciatingly painful it burned out his eye, but gave Thor the resolve he needed to defeat the villainous Malekith and take the Asgardian throne.

Thor may have regained his sight, but with Taika Waititi returning to helm Thor: Love and Thunder and the acclaimed filmmaker's proclaimed appreciation for Aaron's comic book run on the character, this may be fleeting. After all, the MCU Thor has been a hard-luck case since his debut and, even with Jane Foster back in tow, the Asgardian Avenger still stands to lose much.
