Marvel’s Girl Comics #2 is now on sale in comic shops. I did a Valkyrie pinup for the book. This is the preliminary drawing.
I enjoy Norse mythology, and used to be an avid Thor comics fan. One of the first Marvel Comics I ever tried to emulate was The Defenders. Valkyrie was prominently featured in the series, so it was a real treat to draw Valkyrie in an official Marvel comic.
I’d originally intended to paint her on her flying horse, but balked at the tight deadline.
This piece is presented with the kind permission of Marvel Comics and my editor Jeanine Schaefer. I will also post the under painting in a few days.
The original drawing is for sale. Please inquire.
