Description
Background. In 1983, Walter Simonson took over as writer and artist on Thor. What he went on to achieve is regarded as one of the absolute pinnacles of American superhero comics. Simonson introduced Beta Ray Bill (a horse-like alien who proved himself worthy to wield Mjölnir), brought back Surtur as a cosmic threat, experimented with narrative structure (issues without dialogue, sounds transformed into visual elements) and elevated Thor’s mythology to unprecedented heights.
What’s inside. Walter Simonson’s complete run on Thor as writer-artist, from the first issue of his run to the last. It includes the appearance of Beta Ray Bill, the Surtur saga (spanning dozens of issues as a single epic), Thor’s transformation into a frog, and all the narrative innovations for which this run is remembered. Complete art by Walter Simonson.
Why it’s worth it. Walter Simonson’s run on Thor is important reading for anyone who considers themselves a fan of American comics. It is one of the top 5 or 10 most highly recommended runs of all time on any serious list of the best superhero comics. Beta Ray Bill is one of the most memorable new characters ever introduced in the Marvel universe. And visually, Simonson draws Asgard with an energy that not even Kirby achieved. If you’re only going to read one Thor in your life, let it be this one.
