The Big-Ass Book of Asgard

Hey! Didja get your copy of the Thor Omnibus by Walt Simonson yet? I've been waiting for this book to be published ever since I first saw it in an ish of Journey Into Mystery!


Panel from Journey into Mystery #504 (December 1996), script by Tom DeFalco, pencils and inks by "Deodato Studios," colors by Marie Javins, letters by Jon Babcock


Well, they certainly gave it a fancier cover than the first volume in the series:


Panel from Journey into Mystery #510 (July 1997), script by Tom DeFalco, pencils and inks by "Deodato Studios," colors by Marie Javins, letters by John Costanza


But, you know, realistic depictions of book volumes isn't exactly what we come to the art of Mike Deodato and his Sussudio Studio for, is it? It's usually something more like



Ah, Mike Deodato and Studio. If we can't say anything else about you, it's this: you drew comics during the Nineties.

Anyway, pick these up! Thus speaketh Odin Bully!

    Obviously, "Secrets of Asgard" is written in Hebrew.

    Well, foreward is forearmed, as Doc Ock might say.

    I love the Fish Heads joke. I wonder if they said Barns and Barns on purpose?
