Mother fucking War Thor by Valerio Schiti.  I met Schiti and got an amazing Sif sketch from him one time when he was in New York.  Glad to see him on Thor still. He has a great style.

I forgot the source, but I am pretty sure I found this on Reddit. If anyone knows where I can give credit, I am happy to do so.

Edit: As per user, foundcarcosa, it’s by Rudy Ao. And yeah, it was probably stated in the Reddit thread, but unfortunately, that was many moons ago. Thanks, foundcarcosa.

When you struggle, you need to turn to inspiration. Everyone has their own inspiration, but I turn to comics and Thor in particular. Comics are modern day mythologies where stories are being told by different authors, in different times, to different audiences. That is why Thor is so fascinating. When he was "created" by Lee and Kirby, he was basically getting his first reboot.

Spider-Thor by David Nakayama.

Mangog by Jack Kirby.

Mangog first appeared in The Mighty Thor #154. It is, in my opinion, the epitome of Silver Age Thor stories. Unstoppable force. The looming threat. Odin’s deus ex machina to save the day. I only had the opportunity to get something signed by Stan Lee once and I chose to get Mighty Thor #154. It is a treasured possession.

Saw this Friday night and it was one of the main inspirations for trying to revive this blog. It's just a way for me to out out my love for the world of Thor. I wish Jack Kirby was alive to see the state of his characters. Yes, Stan Lee was instrumental, but Thor, and Asgard in general, are Kirby's inventions. The cinematic universe seem to blend the sci-fi element with the god element so well and that was always what Kirby tried to portray. I'm sure I'll have more ramblings in the coming days.

At the very least, War Thor looked awesome.

More Thor by Alex Ross. Alex Ross' style is phenomenal, but it is always refreshing to see classic Thor attire. There are times I miss this old outfit.
