    I just found out through  Comic Alliance, that Marvel plans to release a series of One shots retelling the Origins of several Avengers, that's cool, the Covers are awesome and the art in the preview of Wasp and Ant-Man is sweet, but.... Thor is getting a shot too, but he just had his origin Retold in Thor: First Thunder that, according to this very website, finished publishing this March. There's been little more than 4 months and Thor is getting a new origin? What's up with that?

    Look at the creative teams, all nobodies (save the awesome Sean McKeever). This won't amount to anything continuity-wise.

    New origin?  Where, how, huh? 
     
    Anyway, Thor First Thunder was not the first time his story has been retold, this is common practice and its weird I know, but still.

    @SC: But they usually wait a few years, there hasn't been 6 months. It's too early

    Generally true, but usually they don't have a bunch of movies coming, planned being made etc as well. Thor's profile is higher with casual fans than every before. Whether its early or not is a personal preference. For me its too early, I agree. If it makes money? Well then its never too early.
