So... yeah. There's this guy. Good thing we've got, y'know, Ryu on the team.

Event
Marvel has started making noise about their next Big Comics Event (TM), Fear Itself, which I normally wouldn't care about except that they're using an awful lot of Thor-related imagery to promote it. I don't know much about the premise aside from it involving the appearance of a new God of Fear who's coming to screw things up for everybody, and with gods involved it makes sense Thor would play a role.

But what really caught my attention was this: promotional teasers asking "Who Are The Worthy?", which feature a bunch of characters trying to grab fallen hammers that look significantly like Thor's Mjolnir. At least, I hope that's what Herc & the Juggernaut are doing in this picture.

But really, if I could give those guys three words of advice? Accept no substitutes. Because otherwise you're fucked. (But covers always lie.)

Random
This picture is titled "Catwoman Torso." Yes, it certainly is. Frankly, I'm only interested in buying these ridiculous exercises in animesque titillation for Streaky the Super-Cat. Not that these tiny plastic adolescent fantasies aren't hot, but c'mon... Flying lightning-bolt cat. With a cape.
