Writer J. Michael Straczynski, who penned “Amazing Spider-Man” for nearly seven years, and is the creator of the TV show “Babylon 5,” is the writer of the new “Thor” series.

Straczynski said he wanted to feature a key Marvel hero in an area other than New York City.

“I wanted to put this somewhere fresh, somewhere in the American heartland, and for a number of reasons, including the Heavener runestones, this seemed like the perfect place,” Straczynski said in an interview with The Oklahoman.
