The Mortal Thor Comic (2025)

The Mortal Thor, written by Al Ewing and illustrated by Pasqual Ferry, reimagines the legend of Thor in a darker and more grounded world where myths were never meant to be real. The old Norse stories speak of mighty gods who once walked among humanity, defending the weak and standing against chaos. But in this world, Asgard is nothing more than fiction — a forgotten fantasy people used to believe in. There are no gods watching over humanity, no heroes descending from the heavens, and no miracle coming to save anyone. Yet somewhere in the city, a mysterious man awakens carrying only a hammer and a dangerous purpose. As Roxxon Construction tightens its grip through fear and violence, rumors begin spreading about a relentless vigilante calling himself Thor. Criminal gangs, corrupt enforcers, and powerful organizations soon discover that this stranger refuses to back down, even when hunted by forces far more dangerous than ordinary men. At the same time, beyond the mortal world, the lost realms of Asgard stand divided and vulnerable. Ancient enemies rise in the shadows, with Ulik, Lord of Trolls, marching toward an empty throne while a new heir struggles against the tragic destiny tied to the name of Thor. Meanwhile, the extremist group known as the Sons of the Serpent sets its sights on the man with the hammer. They believe they know his identity — Sigurd Jarlson — but Thor himself is chasing another name: Blake, the leader standing behind the violence consuming the city. Blending mythological fantasy, street-level action, and psychological mystery, The Mortal Thor presents a gritty new vision of the God of Thunder where legends may be dead, but hope still fights to survive.
