Surprise comic book wedding!

In the era of leaked surprises and long trailed storylines, it's always good to see a surprise in comics, especially a surprise wedding.

In fact, this was such a surprise, I'm not even going to tell you what it was until you open the cut

In Thor #3, Balder the Brave (current King of Hel) and Hela (former Queen of Hel) decide that rather than fight each other for the right to the throne of Hel, they should get married.

Except...


But when did Thanos and Hela hook up? That was in Unworthy Thor #5



In Thor #4, Thanos tells the wedding party that Hela would "tear [Baldur] apart".

The Queen of Cinders attacks, Thanos tells Hela that "we need to talk"


Getting back with an ex. Classic dick move.
With the help of Thor and the Valkyries, the armies of Niffleheim see off Sindr and her forces. Sindr escapes through the Black Bifrost, and there's still a wedding to complete.


Loki's wedding present to Karnilla is to send Balder back to the realm of the living.

Yep. Thor #4 had two women marrying each other, as not seen in the New York Times

... I still think it's a shame that Thanos and Hela went down the drain so quickly. I'd have liked to see the two bounce off of each other a bit.

yeah. It would have an interesting status quo to have... buuut i guess since he is too tied to Marvel Cosmic events (particularly the infinity stones, even before the MCU), it simply could not be.
