And where Captain America was never found in the ice because there were no Avengers. Instead this world has always been protected by the Squadron Supreme of America. And now the Squadron faces an attack from some of their fiercest enemies, like Dr. Juggernaut, the Black Skull, the Silver Witch and Thanos with his Infinity Rings. Why is the Daywalker Blade the one man who seems to remember that the entire world has somehow been...reborn?

If you were born a 100 years ago your favorite Thor artist might have been Johannes Gehrts.

His artwork appeared in popular magazines and children's books at the beginning of the 20th century.

He made a living illustrating pirate stories, German legends, Fairy Tales and, obviously, Norse Mythology.
