Thor Annual Comic Written By CM Punk
USA Today has a an exclusive first look at CM Punk‘s writing debut in the Thor Annual No. 1 comic.
The Marvel comic, which goes on sale February 25th, features Punk’s story about Mephisto “arriving in the past to best a pre-Avengers Thor in a crazy drinking contest.”
Regarding the issue, Punk he and artist Rob Guillory were a perfect fit to work together. He describes the plot as
“He’s [Thor] going to Midgard and slaying dragons and hanging out with Vikings and drinking all their mead and sleeping with all their women. He’s kind of taking the whole ‘I’m the thunder god’ responsibility pretty lightly.
“There’s obviously some growing pains from that Thor into becoming the Thor that’s worthy of the hammer, and there’s a lot of fun stories in there.”
Punk also said this story with is “not the most serious thing in the world and we can get away with goofing on Mephisto a little bit.”
