Description
For me, this is the most iconic image of Thor ever produced. It has always conveyed a feeling of hope and wonder, and I'm always inspired by it. I'm amazed by the artistry of John Romita and Joe Sinnott here. Romita's Treasury covers in particular are a sight to see.

The original is in the 'black hole' of collector (and nice guy) Dino Mauricio's collection, so it's an impossibility to ever obtain it. But because I love it so much I commissioned the great Mike Maikowsky to recreate it.

He hit it out of the ballpark.

I'm NOT a great photographer, so my pic doesn't even come close to it's majesty.

Large art at 19X14, I can't wait to get it framed.

Thanks to Kirk Dilbeck for making it happen, and of course to Mike for doing such an excellent job.

Big fan of Maikowsky's work.  He always really nails it with these recreations.

The Sinnott ink style is a beast on its own to try and recreate.  Lots of work just to get an understanding on how to reverse engineer the piece.
