Al Ewing, Martín Cóccolo, and Matt Wilson's series continues.
Marvel has released an exclusive preview of The Immortal Thor #2, from writer Al Ewing and the art team of Martín Cóccolo and Matt Wilson. Featuring a cover by superstar Alex Ross that features a shadowy figure with an illuminated eye, it's maybe no surprise that the issue starts with a flashback that centers on Odin, Thor's father, and the moment in his life where he cut out his own eye to trade it for"wisdom.
The character in question is Toranos, who faces off with Thor, claiming the age of"small gods" is over. He is named for the Celtic god Toranis, although there is an existing Toranis in Marvel lore that has a more traditional backstory. This isn't too dissimilar to the way Set and Seth both exist in Marvel, and exist independently of one another despite being variations on the same mythological character.
First appearing in Immortal Thor #1, Toranos was an Elder God who was exiled by his sister Gaea for thousands of years in Utgard, along with his brother Utgard-Loki. She recently released him and tasked him with destroying New York, which puts him head to head with Thor.TORANOS WALKS THE EARTH! An Elder God of the Utgard-Realm had marked Thor for destruction—and a city with him. Yet the only power that could prevail carried its own terrible price.
