I have to say, the costume looks well done. I like what Marvel Studios is doing with their movies (and wish they would get the rights to all their characters back). I'm sure Thor is probably a touchy subject, what with him being portrayed as a god. As a Christian, I know that he isn't worthy of standing in the presence of the One True God. As a fan of comics, I recently read up on J. Michael Straczynski and Olivier Coipel’s run of Thor. Before that, I was not familiar with his character. I guess one of the reason I love Marvel characters more, is the human aspect of the characters. Although he is a "god", it was his "human" characteristics that stood out more. Between Straczynski's story, and Coipel's artwork, you really see that captured in the books.
I guess if I were to write a character like this, it is what I would focus on. A man, with a "god complex" but still struggling as any one of us. We may not like the fact that they promote the false norse gods, but change certain elements in the story, and you have a compelling ministry tool.
