Donny Cates Named As New THOR Writer

Posted on October 4, 2019 in Comic News

We have more news coming out of Marvel’s Next Big Thing panel at New York Comic Con

, with BCP favourite Donny Cates and talented artist Nic Klein being officially named as the new creative team for Thor next year.

Speaking about the announcement, Cates said: ““In all my wildest dreams, I could never have imagined a world in which I was worthy of writing THOR. From Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, all the way to the legendary run I am so foolishly following by the great Jason Aaron, it is beyond an honor to enter the golden halls of Asgard, and to pave the path (Far beyond the fields we know…) for the Thunder God himself. Know that you will have my best, true believers. For all of you. For Asgard. Forever.”

“I’m incredibly excited and honored to be working on this with Donny,” added Klein. “THOR is one of my favorite comic book characters so I really tried to up my game to do Thor and all of Asgard justice.”

The quest Thor is on will be the stuff of legend, filled with thunderous adventure as well as mystery as the character finds himself in unexpected new territory and facing off against an ancient threat known as The Black Winter.
