why is this filed under DC category? See, just below the "LIKE" button? CA should know their Marvel vs DC properties. For Shame!

I like the design. Dislike the colour.
Also, in keeping with a minimalist theme, the background texture would be better minimalized as well.

Thanks Ronald, it would have been logical to use silver, black and red like all of the thor branding, but I chose to base the design on the nordic colours of blue and yellow to make it different. As for the background texture, it is as minimal as a cracked wall can be! :)

The black and red is the obvious choice, true. I do agree about the blue colouring I think the hammer/thundercloud and lightning would pop off better if the blue bg was darker and a bit less saturated. Using a blue/gray tinged bg would evoke a more stormy feeling. Anyway, those are my .02

I think the novelty of these minimalist reinterpretations of popular properties has sort of worn out its welcome.

I disagree and welcome more.
