In honor of the upcoming “Thor” movie, I thougth we’d give the God of Thunder the same treatment as Wolverine in our last poll. To wit:
Verily and forsooth, mortal, we shall taketh our discussion to the ends of the jump!

The entries for “Character Contest 35: Road Warrior” were oustanding, thank you everyone for putting up such excellent illustrations! I really think you outdid yourselves this time around, so I’ve got a bunch of Finalists after the jump. Even then, I left out quite a few more that I think were also great, so this is definitely a week you could go through the comments manually and check them all out.
Before we get into them all, though, I wanted to start out with one that made me both laugh and wish that there were a movie or comic in the works for the featured character. I think it will get things off on the right foot, so I turn it over to Ian Healy’s “Undead Elvis of the Apocalypse”:

With many and profound thanks to X-Stacy’s girlfriend, we are back with another Caption Contest this week even though I already packed up all my comics! Apparently this paragon of womanly awesomeness enjoys taking the dialog out of bizarre comics panels, which in my book would make her perfect were I not married and she not taken. Alas!
Regardless, your challenge once again is to come up with the best replacement dialog for this (very!) random comics panel:
The rules are simple:
I’ll put up a poll next Monday with all the finalists for one week. The top vote-getter at the end of that time will receive his or her choice of either any one item, or a portrait, which will appear in the final HeroMachine 3 version.
Good luck everyone!

I don’t know what a Twart is, but Comic Twart is a blog featuring outstanding comic book illustrations by awesome artists around a common theme each week. Or as they say, “A different character every week drawn by a bunch of TWARTS!” It’s a staple of my Daily Art Fix and should be featured in the news reader of anyone who loves the medium. For instance, here’s one from the Thing week by Ramon Perez:
Browsing the archives is a great way to find inspiration and blow a couple of lazy hours on a holiday weekend.

Because even the gods need some time off, you know? And if you’re a god from the frozen tundra, it only makes sense you’d take your vacation in the tropics.
Also, I like to think there are several small children cowering in terror just off-camera where Volstagg will land his belly buster.

This is for yesterday, sorry for the miss. Apparently though I have Thor Cartoons on my mind.
