Move over, Odinson — there’s a tiny green hero hopping into the spotlight. Marvel fans have a soft spot for **Throg**, the frog who became worthy of Mjolnir, and now he’s the star of an exclusive lithograph tied to Clover Press’s upcoming **Marvel Masterworks** line. If you love collectibles, comic nostalgia, or just a good underdog (under-frog?) story, this one’s for you.

## What’s Actually Happening

Clover Press, working alongside longtime Marvel series editor Cory Sedlmeier, is relaunching **Marvel Masterworks** with meticulously restored classic comics — and Throg is front and center on the promotional art, hammer raised high. The campaign will launch via Kickstarter, letting fans sign up early for collector-grade editions.

## Why Fans Are Excited

Beyond the adorable Throg artwork, the real draw is restoration quality. Over 200 pages of **Walter Simonson’s** legendary Thor run have been rebuilt from original scans, and a significant chunk of the final Tomb of Dracula issue — long plagued by poor print quality — has finally been restored properly. For longtime readers, this is as much a preservation project as a nostalgia trip.

Collector extras include premium boxes, membership cards, character stickers, art prints, and die-cut slipcases, making this less a book release and more a full fan experience.
