10 Easter Eggs To Watch Out For In Thor: Ragnarok

Thor: Ragnarok is undoubtedly one of the most entertaining MCU movies to date, and a big reason why is because it's busting with ideas, with the movie acting as a kind of blend of various different comic book storylines. Apart from dealing with the events of Ragnarok, there's a lot of Planet Hulk in it, too, as well as bits of recent Thor comics from writer Jason Aaron.

Jack Kirby Influence

Recommended Videos

Sticking with Sakaar, Kevin Feige and director Taika Waititi have been upfront about how much Thor: Ragnarok was influenced by the unique visual style of Jack Kirby. And that’s no more obvious than in the sequences set on Sakaar, what with its bright colour scheme and eclectic alien citizens.

In particular, a piece of Kirby’s artwork can be seen on the wall of the Grandmaster’s viewing room. Those with eagle-eyes and an encylopaedic knowledge of Marvel comics might recognize the complex design from Fantastic Four #64 (July 1967). A street on the planet is also labelled “Kirby Way.” Last but not least, the film’s final logo is a deliberate homage to Kirby’s lettering style.

Waititi said the following recently about how Kirby influenced the movie:

“He’s a huge hero to all of us. Kirby created so many incredible characters and designs and ships and costumes. We’re heavily influenced by a lot of what he did. He really blazed the trail and the tribute to him in our film was a huge honor. ”
