SDCC: Destroyer Invades Comic-Con

Kenneth Branagh Makes Big Reveal at the Marvel Booth

As if seeing Odin's throne room at the Marvel booth was not impressive enough, today Thor director Kenneth Branagh revealed what was behind the golden door - the Destroyer! A few months ago, a small picture of the armor leaked onto the internet, but today at San Diego Comic-Con, fans got to see it up close and personal. Check out pictures from Marvel.com below.

The Destroyer is an enchanted suit of armor, forged by Odin to protect Asgard from the Celesitals and powered by the life-force of a host being. (Hunt down a copy of Thor #300; it's worth it.) The Destroyer is later used several times by Loki to kill Thor. It's still unknown what role the Destroyer will play in the Thor film, but I'm willing to bet Loki is involved.
