Marvel brings back Donald Blake in Thor #9

Thor’s original alter-ego, Doctor Donald Blake, is returning to the pages of Marvel Comics. But this isn’t quite the same Doc that he knew.

Prey

The new arc in Marvel Comics’ Thor is entitled “Prey”, and it’s looking to be a crazy one. In it, the thunder god’s original alter-ego returns to the Marvel Universe. But as you’ll see in the new trailer, the Donald Blake that once served as conduit for Thor to come to Midgard is long gone.

“‘Prey’ is maybe the most fun I’ve ever had writing at Marvel. Thor fans are going to lose their minds over this one and I can’t wait to unleash this terrifying beast on them!” Cates said. “Nic Klein is back and at the top of his game on this one. I promise you this, True Believers, just like the mighty thunder king himself…..you won’t see this one coming. Behold…the return of Donald Blake!”

Thor writer Donny Cates

It’s been years since the God of Thunder required his human ward. So where has the good doctor been all this time? The answer will shock Thor and fans alike as Donald Blake is no longer the man he once was. Enter the twisted prison of Donald Blake in this chilling trailer, featuring never-before-seen artwork from THOR #9!
