Marvel Comics has announced another What If…? Donald Duck comic, for the character’s 90th birthday. The comic will imagine Donald as Thor! The comic is titled Marvel & Disney: What If…? Donald Duck Became Thor.
The comic is based on a plot by Steve Behling, and the comic will be written by Riccardo Secchi with art by Lorenzo Pastrovicchio. Here’s the synopsis:
IS THIS FOWL WORTHY OF THE HAMMER OF THOR?!
When Donald Duck chaperones Huey, Dewey and Louie on an archaeological trip to search for ancient Viking artifacts, he finds more than he bargained for!
He comes across the Stone Ducks from Saturn preparing for an invasion. But everything changes when he discovers an enchanted cane that causes an egg-ceptional transformation, gifting him with the POWER OF THOR!
Can he learn how to use his new abilities in time to save Duckburg before he changes back? Find out in this mind-twisting retelling of the Mighty Thor’s thunderous origin!
Editor Mark Paniccia shared in a statement: “When we saw the designs for the Stone Ducks of Saturn and The Destroyer we literally laughed out loud.
“I can honestly say I never thought I’d see something like this in my career. I gotta pinch myself to make sure it’s not a dream.”
You can check out covers by artists Lorenzo Pastrovicchio, Walter Simonson, Phil Noto, and Peach Momoko below!
Marvel & Disney: What If…? Donald Duck Became Thor #1 will arrive in comic shops on September 4th.
