Vidar Odinson

Born from the mythic depths of Marvel's Bronze Age, Vidar Odinson made his debut in Thor Annual #12 (1984), courtesy of creators Alan Zelenetz and Bob Budiansky, stepping into a corner of the Marvel Universe steeped in Asgardian legend. With a name drawn straight from Norse mythology, this son of Odin keeps extraordinary company — sharing pages with Thor, Odin, Balder, and Frigga across titles like Thor, Thor Annual, and Thor: The Trials of Loki. His appearances are rare and precious, the kind of deep-catalog find that rewards devoted readers who love the full sweep of Marvel's Asgard. Spanning nearly three decades from 1984 to 2011, Vidar Odinson is a quiet testament to just how rich and expansive the Nine Realms of Marvel Comics truly are.
