Thor may have duties elsewhere as the new Herald of Galactus , but that will have to be put on hold for Empyre . Because once the event arrives in Marvel Comics , and King Hulkling leads his Kree - Skrull coalition against Earth , Thor has no pick but to defend the satellite . After all , it ’s his mother . Well , birth female parent , to be more specific .
That distinction will come as a surprise to any Marvel devotee who are completely mindful thatOdin is the founder of Thor , and had assumed Odin ’s wife Frigga was Thor ’s biological mother . deal old Supreme Being having children with Earth women is nothing novel to mythology , it came as fiddling surprise when Thor first fulfill his female parent while fight Earth from the Celestials . But when she divulge herself to be Gaea , goddess of the Earth ( as in the entire planet ’s living force ) , Thor ’s connection to planet Earth became every bit as strong as Asgard . Which is the reason why Empyre : Thor will be a miniseries fans wo n’t need to miss , as the God of thunder returns to save his mother from a unlike form of Celestial violation .
The three result miniseries , revealed in Marvel ’s May 2020 solicitations , will be written by Ram V , with artistic production and cover by Pasqual Ferry . It run without saying , but Ram V was sure to voice enthusiasm ( via ComicBook ) over this chance to not only contribute to the come effect , but return Thor to a seldom explored niche of his origin story :
I jumped at the probability to compose Thor ’s tie - in to the Empyre event … He ’s one of those characters that ’s the perfect premix of all the things I enjoy . I get to blur sci - fi and fantasy musical genre . I get to play with world mythologies and I ’ll be taking Thor to unexpected place , facing off against exciting new terror . All of that with glorious artistic creation from Pasqual Ferry whose work has been nothing short of iconic ! I think fans are go to see some thunder and lightning like they ’ve never seen before . And I ’m thrilled it ’s tying into the big summer event at Marvel . It ’s bright work in that sandpile , weaving Thor ’s story in with those from the other brilliant creators require !
