Thor, Scientist of Thunder
Aug. 16th, 2011 10:05 pmarbre_rieurYears ago, Marvel published a series of one-shots with a quirky premise: These were comics purportedly published within the Marvel Universe, the comics that the people living in the Marvel Universe read. I hadn't thought about them for a long time, but wizardru's recent entry on the line's X-Men one-shot reminded me.
Each of the one-shots took the concept in a somewhat different direction. The Thor one-shot is premised on the idea that most people in the Marvel Universe don't believe he's really a god. So, naturally, Thor comic books in the Marvel Universe are about a hero who uses technology to pretend to be a magic deity.
( Seven pages from CALL HIM THOR #1 )

Walter Simonson's run of The Mighty Thor is just perfect. The Warriors Three are a big part of that perfection.
The Asgardians have just defeated Surtur and saved the Nine Realms. Time to head home? Odin's Stones, no! Volstagg, Hogun and Fandral hit the streets for some errands and Midgard fun!
They, in the words of Carl from ATHF, "Don't need instructions to know how to rock!"
Plus a scene from the cute flirtation that Beta Ray Bill and Sif had around that time.

Any day of Last Stands must begin with the greatest of them all....the Tale of Skurge, the Executioner who stood alone at Gjallerbru.
Walt Simonson gave Skruge an ending so epic, so metal that the warriors and the skalds of the world unite in respect and honor.
His name was as Skurge! Say it, damn you, say it loud!

Christmas in Asgard!
Dec. 20th, 2010 01:22 amproteus_livesGreetings True Believers!
I thought I'd give you an early Christmas present. It' an hilarious Robot Chicken skit featuring Santa, Thor and Loki.
The trickery of Loki pits Santa and Thor against each other! Oh noes! Will Christmas be ruined?
Enjoy!

Tony Stark learns the difference between a God of Thunder and a mortal man in a metal suit
Dec. 17th, 2010 04:21 amproteus_livesGreetings True Believers!
This is one of my favorite moments from the Straczynski run on Thor. The reaction from Thor when he confronts Tony about the clone that Stark, Reed and Skrull-Pym created during the Civil War.
Thor has just returned to Midgard and placed Asgard in it's new home of Broxton, Oklahoma. He's searching for the lost Asgardians when he encounters Iron Man in New Orleans and shows him a different definition of power.

Awesome new female: Kelda of Asgard
Nov. 2nd, 2010 09:30 pmperletwoShe and mortal boytoy Bill are so awesome they managed to catch the eye and heart of a confirmed DC Girl here. A quick look at her Marvel Database Project page gives her first appearance as February 2008 - is that all? - the creation of J.M. Straczynski and Oliver Coipel.
Here is Kelda being awesome when Norse-thugs hassle her beloved.
( Go Kelda! )
And here she is when the Siege interrupts her bereavement call on the House of Bills.
( I know, now. )
I hope we get to see more of Kelda (and Valhalla Bill) even now that JMS and Co. are off the book...
ETA: Is there a series name and/or tag for this Week?

My NYCC art haul!
Oct. 12th, 2010 12:47 amterrykunNew York Comic-Con was OUTRAGEOUS. Panels of note were the Avengers premiere and ItsJustSomeRandomPanel, but that's not what I'm here to talk about.

dorksidefikerOkay, I want to start this post off with something midly off-topic (only mildly, I promise, and it ties in to the main post eventually, I promise):
I. Love. My. Boss.
Okay, Carol's not exactly my boss anymore. Friday was her last day, and she left me with a present before she left. You see, her brother left her with all of his old
comic books and never came back for them. She's moving, and had no desire to keep them, so she gave them to me. And do you know what was amongst that treasure trove?
Walt Simonson's run on The Mighty Thor.
And so, I offer you, my friends, the closest thing to a Hildy mega-post we're likely to get.
Lots of images below the cut, pretty large and not the least bit dialup friendly.
We start with Asgard under attack, and Frigga being put in charge of evacuating the children...
( Not everyone's down with this plan )

Here are four scans from Thor #615. Dr. Eric Solvang has dire news about Asgard, Midgard and the cosmic balance.
He seeks an audience in Broxton and luckily, Asgard's "Greatest Man of Science" is available to speak to him. Enjoy!

Loki, thy name is Dickery.
Sep. 20th, 2010 10:54 pmproteus_livesGreetings True Believers!
This post is about one of my favorite moments of Loki-Dickery. The fire-demon Surtur prepares to lay waste to Asgard and all creation. So All-Father Odin calls for all Asgardians, good and evil, to fight against him. He calls Balder the Brave from his self-imposed exile act as a ambassador to Loki. But dealing with Loki is never a simple deal.....
Enjoy and remember Walt Simonson is but a mortal aspect of the All-Father.

It's time for the coronation of Balder as the new lord of the Golden Realm and the Volstagg Clan is going to walk the red carpet in style. But Hildy does not care for her outfit. Right hooks ensue. This post also contains another moment of Hogun the not so Grim.
Walt Simonson is my master now.

My favorite canonical romance? There can no other. Bill, Born of Bills/Kelda Stormrider. The OTPness of this couple leaps from the page and strikes with woobiness and awesome-sauce.
Here is their first meeting and I've included links to my other Bill/Kelda posts.
Let the skalds sing of their love forever! Let the the metal bands compose epic seven minute ballads about them!
