Because there's a certain strand of nonsense that seems increasingly out of place over on the old Workblog.

Kathryn Immonen and Valerio Schiti are taking over Journey Into Mystery with issue 646. It’s very much a new era of the book. Rather than Loki, the story focuses on Lady Sif. Kathryn has written some of my favourite mini-series of the last few years, and I’m thrilled to see her on an ongoing book. I’m less familiar with Valerio Schiti’s work, but the little I’ve seen looks exciting. And Sif is one of the characters I wished I had more chance to explore in my time in the Thor universe, and so think this greater attention is long overdue. You’ll find further details in the press coverage. Here’s Comic Book Resources’ Piece.Here’s Newsarama’s piece. EDIT: And ignore the $3.99 price on the cover. It’s apparently still $2.99 and that’s a typo.
