Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers Animated Series

Right now you may be thinking this is the long awaited animated project with Thor and Loki as little kids when they still loved each other BUT I SAY TO THEE NAY!!! and forsooth, because I like saying it. Go on, give it a shot. That project will probably surface just in time for the major motion picture release but for now, Marvel wants to assure all your money is going directly to Asgard.

Marvel Knights Animation is proud to announce Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers, an all-new four-episode series debuting on iTunes, Xbox LIVE, and PlayStation®Network on Monday, March 28th. Further episodes debut weekly on Wednesdays beginning April 6th, with each high-definition episode priced at $2.99 (standard definition is also available at $1.99/episode).

Inspired by the acclaimed graphic novel from Robert Rodi and Esad Ribic, Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers takes a powerful look inside the minds of Thor & Loki, brothers in the mythical land of Asgard and seemingly forever enemies. But just why does Loki hate his brother Thor? And could it be that this master of mischief isn’t really the villain he’s been branded? Loki's insatiable lust for power and his feud with Thor take on new meaning in this resonant epic.

"It's been an incredible experience developing and producing Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers," says Ruwan Jayatilleke, producer of Thor & Loki. "The source material by Robert and Esad is absolutely brilliant and works on so many different levels as a story for multiple mediums. To be honest it's been an honor--and a blast -- to work with the talented creatives of Magnetic Dreams, Edge Studio, Underground Music, and NYAV! What we've put together as a team will further define and push the boundaries of what Marvel Knights Animation can be as well as entertain comic book enthusiasts and mainstream fans with a very compelling piece of content."

The Incredible Art of Thor: For Asgard!

Wow..if there was ever a book I bought just because of its beauty, this would be in. Simone Bianchi lends his amazing talents to a new Marvel Comics mini series featuring Thor attempting to rebuild the once proud empire known as Asgard.

KRAKOOOM! Marvel is excited to announce and bring fans their first look at Thor: For Asgard, an all new mini-series by the masterful writer behind Loki, Robert Rodi, and astonishing artist Simone Bianchi. Starting this September, Thor: For Asgard #1 begins an epic adventure showcasing the God of Thunder as you’ve never seen him before! With Balder dead, and Odin missing – it will be up to Thor to handle the vassal uprising in Asgard. But when his trusty Mjolnir is being denied him, how can the mighty son of Odin put his empire back together? With the first two issues hitting in the same month, fans can’t miss this epic adventure beyond the Rainbow Bridge!

Artist Simone Bianchi had this to add about the series, “Working on a Thor book is like a dream come true! Not only did Axel (Alonso, Vice President Executive Editor) give me full freedom to craft my own unique redesigns for characters and costumes, but I also got to create a number of different elements of Asgard. And needless to say, working on scripts by the amazing Robert Rodi has been a ride of pure joy and a lot of fun – so go out there and buy at least 10 copies each.”

Thor: For Asgard #1 promises to bring you the full glory of Asgard in only a way that Rodi and Bianchi can. Full of action, suspense and intrigue – no fan can afford to miss out on this astounding new mini-series this September.
