Is this the Marvel version of Thor only?
You guys asked for it, so here it is! I look forward to the results.
Next week we have another suggestion coming from SupaJoe. It'll be a movie based thread. The film stars Harrison Ford and rhymes with Rade Blunner
The week after that we'll be tackling an exercise that Cheegy came up with. It should be a good one. It's similar in tone to last year's Criterion cover thread.

Is this the Marvel version of Thor only?
Love is good.
There are always a few ways people interpret these threads:
- I'm going to draw my own really cool version of Thor
- THIS is how Thor should look in the current comics
- If I had never seen Thor before and was given a description of the character, this is what he might look like
- I like the old design, and haven't liked anything else since 1968, so here it is with a few modifications
For me, I did read up a little (ie. wiki) on the Thor of myth and might incorporate some of those elements into the design.
Here's my quick question - what elements of the original design do you guys feel are essential to having the character still read as Marvel's Thor?
Obviously the hammer, but it's weird to me that Hitch's Ultimates design seemed to prove that the long blond hair and six, seemingly arbitrary, circles read as "Thor."
I think one of the main differentiations between Marvel Thor and mythology Thor is the blond hair vs. red hair. That's really it. And if you're talking 616, then the depiction of Mjolnir. Besides that, you can totally change the costume (yup, even the circles) and it'll still come off recognizable (for better or worse) as Marvel's Thor. Think about Deodato's Thor from the 90's from Warren Ellis's run as writer. (Just try not to think about the belly-shirt too much).
