Walt Simonson Returns to Thor in December

Legendary creator Walt Simonson is returning to Thor this December at Marvel Comics… but not as the new writer. Simonson joins Tom DeFalco, Kathryn Immonen, Ron Frenz, Sal Buscema, Mike Hawthorne, and more in one of Marvel's 80th-anniversary one-shots. The comic was revealed in Marvel's full December solicitations, which you can view here.

Of course, like all of these one-shots, it does beg the question of why Marvel doesn't make use of veteran creators more often. Walt Simonson comes to mind, as does Louise Simonson, and of course Chris Claremont. We're glad to get occasional work from them at Marvel over none at all, but more would be nice too. Hopefully the end of Marvel's 80th-anniversary doesn't also spell the end of Marvel giving work to classic creators.

Check out the solicit for Thor: The Worthy #1 below.

A prophecy once said that in the comic book industry's darkest days, a hero would come to lead the people through a plague of overpriced floppies, incentive variant covers, #1 issue reboots, and super-mega-crossover events. Sadly, that prophecy was wrong. Oh, Jude Terror was right. For ten years. About everything. But nobody listened. And so, Jude Terror has moved on to a more important mission: turning Bleeding Cool into a pro wrestling dirt sheet!
