Marvel is just pushing out the new Thor material! No surprise – they have a movie coming out. Why not give the character’s universe a push? So in addition to a Thor and Loki origin and the all new Astonishing/Ultimate Thor, the Warrior’s Three are getting their own book!
Of course, the really interesting part is the writer: Bill Willingham. You may know Willingham as the writer of, oh I don’t know, FABLES? The comic that won Multiversity’s best series of the decade. That’s right, Willingham will be writing this brand new Marvel mini featuring art details by Neil Edwards (Fantastic Four).
Take a look at the solicit below:
Marvel is pleased to announce WARRIORS THREE, a new limited series from best-selling writer Bill Willingham and artist Neil Edwards! Hogun, Fandral, and Volstagg are the Warriors Three, allies of Thor and some of the greatest warriors the world has ever seen. When an evil from Hel, unlike any seen by man or God, makes its move, these Asgardians may be the world’s only hope! Don’t miss an all-new action packed epic presenting these heroes like you’ve never seen before-and it all begins in WARRIORS THREE #1!
WARRIORS THREE #1
Written by BILL WILLINGHAM
Penciled by NEIL EDWARDS
Cover by SALVA ESPIN

So. Willingham writing a Marvel book, eh? I didn’t see that one coming. I mean, aside from that one comic in 2003. Still, a little out of left field. Intriguing none the less, and you can assure this will end up in our pull at the moment.
