I was asked to work on Thor: Love & Thunder on February 2, 2022. This became a project that made me laugh out loud while drawing the scenes. (Thanks to Taika Waititi.) Of all the projects I've ever had the honor to work on in my career, this was fun, challenging and exhilarating. From the '90s to the beginning of the millennium, I had just scratched the surface of my blurry journey through my occupation as an aspiring comic book artist. Fast-forward to the present day… While working on the fourth installment of the Thor sequels, it had occurred to me that I had drawn Thor a few times during my stint as a comic book artist in the late '90s. As fate would have it, I now get to flex my drawing skills for the purposes of the big screen. The craft I began studying from the book, How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way, by Stan Lee and John Buscema, would be challenged at another level! I was given the task to board seven scenes that made it into the movie (and some that made it onto the figurative cutting room floor). I hit the ground running fast and hard when I am provided with the concept art, script and any other significant references for the assortment of sequences. On the following pages are just a few of the boards I drew for the film, along with samples from fellow storyboarders William Groebe and Michael Anthony Jackson. A.
