Hemsworth's probably the least of Disney's worries: he was basically Captain Kirk's dad for 10 minutes before he became Thor. There are many good alternatives: just off the top of the hat, you can...

I agree -- Thor's been a lot more prominent being based on the mythological character.

Yes, that's what I've read too -- although casting her in the movie turned out to be a nice touch.

Agreed. Look what's happened with Superman: we're on our second actor after Chris Reeve.

Even the comic book writers are writing Tony like he's Robert Downey Jr.

The only thing that concerns...

Very pleased that they're bringing Malekith back to Thor, even though it's an obvious comic lead-in to the movie. He hasn't been seen in the book since the Mike Avon Oeming Thor run, if I recall...

I saw the premiere; this series has a lot of potential though I kept thinking that Joseph Fiennes would've been better-suited to the lead role than Tom Riley -- it's funny that Da Vinci is dressed in...

What I really miss from Walt's run on Thor is the way he incorporates these Norse design cues into the mise en scene. Notice how Thor's throne has those gargoyle heads and the table has an atypical...

I agree. My thinking is let Neil finish the Miracleman story he wanted then have him come to the MU as a fresh character and, if he's amenable, have Neil be instrumental to that introduction.

I may be in the minority since the Eternals series got very little publicity but I really liked it.

At the end of the day, we should all just wait and read the story that Neil's planning to tell. All the preceding debates are tiresome because the subject matter hasn't even been published yet.

If Thor's lucky, Angela will hook up with him instead of pwning him.

It shouldn't be a stumper since he owns half of it. It wouldn't even have been a stumper -- to me at least -- if he'd decided to bring Angela with him for the upcoming Sandman anniversary project.

I don't get where these comments about Angela fitting in the Marvel U and whether Marvel's God is Christian are coming from. In the first place, angels are present in quite a few religions -- all the...

Well, Neil's a pretty popular (1.8m twitter followers) New York Times bestselling author, has a famous/somewhat controversial wife (she of the $1.2m KickStarter raise) and is one of comics best...

I have a feeling Neil writing GOTG with Bendis is also a marketing stunt of a sort by Marvel leading into the forthcoming movie. Neil is a hugely popular author who connects with demographics beyond...

I really don't know where you're basing your assertion on Neil Gaiman's finances. Are you privy to his personal finances? Just because he decided to work for Marvel doesn't mean he needs the money....

Yes, between this and Avengers, I hope Marvel isn't going to suddenly pull off a New 52-style reboot. That would be disappointing. One thing I've always liked about Marvel over DC is the fact that...

Since Neil's going to be touring the MU, I hope he gets to write an issue of Thor with Jason Aaron. With art by Esad Ribic or Olivier Coipel, of course -- I think Coipel could draw an even better...

Yeah. I agree; in fact, I think that's precisely what Aaron has in mind. I think he's noticed over the years that Thor's gotten used to just resorting to physical combat -- although I think the blame...

Anyone who is "nervous" about Danny Miki as an inker hasn't been paying enough attention to the man's work over the years.

Seriously. What have you folks been looking at? This is another of those,...

Yes. It certainly seems that way: the Spidey from Hickman's first Avengers arc appears to be Peter Parker and not SpOck (although it's weird that Tony had to recruit him with "we have money" since...

Yes. I was thinking the same thing too: it's good Hickman/Marvel editorial are building on DnA's tremendous work.

Also... "Most Elite Fighting Force In The Known Universe." Interesting. I wonder...

He actually does something similar (though not with the same framing) in Manhattan Projects (seriously, that book needs more press) with "Red" and "Blue" Oppenheimer. I guess, being used to Hickman's...

I think you're just being ironic. Thor just wanted an excuse to take a swig of that ol'Fimbulvinter. Also, he and Hyperion don't have much of a relationship; I expect Thor was just trying to get to...

Except it's canon that Thor doesn't need it and Doc wasn't using the Eye for a good long time after relinquishing the SS mantle (that he recently got back). I imagine writers just take creative...
