This is my only superhero icon. Which is ok because Babs is more awesome than anyone else. ♥
Saying that I have an Elektra icon. But she's more of a villain, so.
I finally got to see Thor today! I really enjoyed it. It looked great, had nice camera work, Chris Hemsworth looked suitably hot (though boy, would he look silly without the beard) and it was a fun movie all around. It had nice funny bits and nice dramatic bits and some really cheesy cringe-worthy bits because the world cannot be nice all the time. In all, I'm having a slightly toned-down but rather similar reaction to the one I had after watching Iron Man, which was of the sort of:
EVERYTHING IS MARVEL AND NOTHING HURTS. ♥
Thor is not Tony Fucking Stark, but his comics are also quite enjoyable, so I dusted off some of the ones I'd had lying around for ages. Right now I'm reading Thor: The Mighty Avenger, which if it was in DC it'd be Thor: Year One. So all in all, it's a charming, lovely and adorably silly retelling of that time he got banished to Earth for being too much of a party boy and he got to fight crime with Jane, all told in a lovely 60s style art. Read it if you can, guys! And of course, there's always J. Michael Straczynski's run, which was STUNNING. Very recommended.
And now I shall go back to reading Tony/Steve because this brought back ~feelings~ and because I just realised that there's just a few months now until Cap's movie and if we don't have a scene of Tony staring longingly into Cap's deep frozen eyes after the credits, I shall cry a lot.
