This week sees the arrival of IDW’s latest Artisan Edition release, as the publisher showcases the incredible work of legendary artist Walter Simonson on Marvel’s The Mighty Thor; check out a preview here…
WALTER SIMONSON’S MIGHTY THOR ARTISAN EDITION, collecting seven complete issues of Simonson’s Transcendent run on The Mighty Thor, including the groundbreaking first story arc that introduced Beta Ray Bill. Each page has been scanned from the original art in Walter Simonson’s personal archives, ensuring that these stories are presented as closely as possible to the actual hand-drawn artwork. While appearing to be in black and white, these pages have been meticulously scanned in color so all the subtle nuances of the art are clearly visible, from blue pencil notations, gradients in the ink, plus more—all those wonderful things that make original art unique and beautiful. This is the best of both worlds—an art book that is also a thrilling comic book!
