Thor becomes a hero

My latest working thesis is Thor does not become a hero until his experiences with shame conquer his excessive pride. This is similar to my previous thesis, but more clear and put together. It still shows that Thor’s character has improved because he has experienced shame. However, I don’t think Thor was a successful hero at all until he experienced shame. His excessive pride caused him to make mistakes and impulse decisions, and I think once he experiences shame and reaches a state of emotional maturity, his pride comes down to a reasonable level that others can respect and tolerate.
