Thor Visionaries: Walter Simonson #[1]
In "Doom!", Walter Simonson delivers a gripping tale from the heart of Asgardian myth, as Balder embarks on a desperate mission to Loki's realm to seek aid against an ancient evil. With Simonson handling every aspect of the interior art and inks, and Christie Scheele's colors grounding the storm-laden skies, the story unfolds with raw emotional weight as Balder's vow of peace shatters in the face of betrayal. The cover, also by Simonson, captures the moment's grim intensity.
