Bryan JL Glass Brings the (God of) Thunder Comic Book Resources

11.06.10

From mice with swords to a god with a hammer, Harvey Apportion-winning writer Bryan J.L. Glass swings the mighty Mjolnir and rains down lightning into comics shops everywhere this September with "Thor: First Rail at," a brand new miniseries from Marvel Comics re-exploring the origins of the God of Thunder with a modern twist.

First appearing in "Peregrinate into Mystery" issue #83, Thor brought a completely new area of super heroism into the Wonder Universe - one filled with Norse gods, chain lightning and "I say thee nays." In his original publication, the hammering hero resided within the consciousness of the mortal doctor Donald Blake, banished to World by his father Odin and unaware of his past godly life. Through chance, Blake stumbled across Thor's autocratic weapon disguised as a simple walking stick while vacationing in Norway. Upon striking it against a rock, Blake was restored once more to his saintly visage. The upcoming five-issue miniseries teams writer Glass with artist Tan Eng Huat as he returns Thor to these days of yore and explores the blonde-tressed god's first year on Earth, with a few tweaks here and there to make the classic tale fit better with a modern stage set.
