Beta Ray Bill

Beta Ray Bill was always one of my favorite Thor characters - he and Balder the Brave - just because he was so weird, I guess. And also because he was indisputably one of Marvel's few additions to the cast of characters we know from Mythology. Of course, he was also a major character during Walt Simonson's legendary run on the title in the 1980s, so he got a lot of screentime.

I haven't been keeping-up with the new title - that is to say, I am a subscriber, I just haven't been reading them faithfully (partly because I was missing one issue in the run, purely by accident - and the only mistake my provider has ever made in over two years, I'll add) - but also because I've been back and forth to the doctors' so much these last few months, I simply haven't had the time, but I knew Beta Ray Bill would show back up at some point. He's just too cool a character not to!

Anyway, this graphic came with an announcement from a week or two back which I didn't run. I just wanted to share it with you because I love Beta Ray Bill. Plus it has Galactus, another favorite.
