“Featuring the Thor of each era, the oversized Thor: God of Thunder #25 is set to deliver an epic stories spanning space and time,” says Marvel SVP Sales & Marketing David Gabriel. “Tom Raney truly captured the essence of the 'God of Thunder' for this exclusive variant cover and we’re thrilled he could bring his iconic style to Wizard World Nashville”
Raney has drawn for some of the most iconic titles in comics, including Avengers Academy, Blockbusters of the Marvel Universe, X-Men Legacy, Thor, Superman and more. Recently he has been focusing on creator owned work.
“'Thor' has had a big presence at Wizard World shows, from hundreds of cosplayers all the way to Chris Hemsworth,” says John Macaluso, Wizard World CEO. “Tom Raney's interpretation of the popular hero is a welcome addition to the series.”

King Thor’s granddaughters uncover a startling secret chapter from the history of the Thunder God, and Thor deals with the shocking fall-out from Original Sin.
