Thor in Art

I am a freak when it comes to mythology. I have this warm, fuzzy and geeky blanket that covers me from head to toe, when anything goes to the topic of myths. I am god-awful at remembering names, events, so I am not as knowledgeable as I would like to be, but at least I have the passion to compensate for. This along with my undying love for super heroes cements my adoration and hints that I may have a shrine dedicated to the Norse God turned super hero/savior Thor. There is nothing better than having a millenia old god re-imagined and revived into modern culture and Marvel certainly went crazy generous with their goody bag. If you would take a look at his page in the Marvel wikia, you will see a humongous list with super powers and attributes that Thor has and that's only genetically. His hammer is one gene splicing function away from being a deity itself and we usually get Thor to swing it... What can I say more?
