Mariko Tamaki and Gurihiru Create Thor & Loki: Double Trouble
Last year, novelist and comic book writer Mariko Tamaki teamed up with the Harvey Award-winning art team Gurihiru to produce Spider-Man & Venom: Double Trouble. Since then, Mariko won Best Writer at the Eisner Awards for Harley Quinn: Breaking Glass, with I, Am Not Starfire on the way. And now they are working together on a new series for Marvel following up on their last. Mariko Tamaki and Gurihiru are launching their new followup series, Thor & Loki: Double Trouble, starting in March 2021.
Spider-Man & Venom: Double Trouble was a classic body-swapping ride through the Marvel Universe – could the same be about to happen with half-brother gods Thor and Loki?
The action kicks off when Loki dares Thor to steal a powerful relic from Odin's vault. The epic story that follows will be packed with both Asgardian adventure and high-octane action, all illustrated in the iconic vibrant style of Gurihiru. "Gurihiru are awesome. This comic is so deeply adorable it's RIDICULOUS," Tamaki promises. "Very excited to get to write some more adventures with Marvel characters, ESPECIALLY Thor and Loki." Loki has always delighted himself in getting the God of Thunder into trouble. But has he finally taken it a trick too far? Don't miss Thor and Loki's wildest adventure yet when THOR & LOKI: DOUBLE TROUBLE arrives this March!
