This link leads to the response from 'Texts from Superheroes' to Marvel's announcement that from now on Thor is going to be a woman* in the mainstream comics (616).

Incidentally, the frog thing is quite true.

*My own response is to yawn, particularly to Marvel's claim that this will be a permanent change. We have, of course, heard this before. We heard it about the deaths of characters (Captain America, Spider-man, Hawkeye, the Wasp, and, indeed, Thor himself along with practically every character Marvel owns. Currently Professor X is still dead, I think, but Nightcrawler is just back from it) and replacements aplenty (Bucky was Cap for a while, but, despite Brubacker's adoration of the character it didn't stick (and he wasn't the only one other than Steve Rogers who has had that role, Rhodes has been Iron Man any number of times), more people have been Captain Marvel than I'd care to mention and, of course, most recently Doctor Octopus was Spider-man (and no one seemed to notice.) Oh, and Peter was supposedly dead at that point and Doc Ock had taken over his body, but right now Peter is back...
