This July, we'll get to witness an epic story that will go down in history among the God of Thunder's most legendary battles as the God of Thunder takes on a godly-powered M.O.D.O.K. in the pages of Thor Annual #1.
From writers Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly, a dup currently making big moves in Guardians of the Galaxy, and artist Ibraim Roberson comes a one-off Thor story so big, it's playing out in the pages of a giant-sized annual. This is a whole new M.O.D.O.K., and after accomplishing his greatest scheme yet, he's evolved into a being that’s more than a match for Thor.
Fuelled by revenge and refusing to ever again be someone else’s paw, M.O.D.O.K. seizes control of all of the Ten Realms but Asgard and Thor the All-Father must step in and regain control of the Ten Realms and the World Tree.
However, M.O.D.O.K.'s new, cosmic power proves to be a greater threat than Thor could imagine, and he’ll need the inspiration of some beloved friends from Midgard to reclaim his realms and his awesome power.
"Collin and I are wildly honoured to contribute to the glorious legacy of Thor!" Lanzing exclaimed in a press release. "Annuals are a wonderful way to dig into a unique aspect of a character - so we’re taking Thor through a gauntlet of epic proportions to finally face down the self-doubt that plagues the new All-Father of Asgard."
"Does he truly deserve his throne? Or do the Nine Realms belong to he who can take them with ingenuity, intelligence, and tireless effort? Is Thor truly worthy...or does the future belong to 'MYTHOS'?"
Thor Annual #1 will also include a special preview of Thor's exciting next era, and an official announcement about that is coming soon.
