Simonson’s run is over two decades old, but creators still find story threads and inspiration from his additions to the Thor legend.
The Simonson Thorrun of the 1980s is considered by many pundits to be the creative pinnacle for Thor and the World of Asgard beyond the original world-building days of Jack Kirby. For Thor: The Dark World, Marvel chose to go with villains created not by Lee and Kirby, but by the great Walt Simonson. While it makes sense to continuously mine from the Silver Age house that Jack and Stan built, certain characters have also had incredible runs and creative peaks past the ‘60s heyday of the House of Ideas. As Marvel adds to their cinematic world with more and more films, it will be interesting to see what eras they pull from in regards to villains.
