Comic Artist Arne Starr Envisions Kevin Mckidd as Thor

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009 by Carl Doherty under Comic News

Comic artist and actor Arne Starr, currently seen as “Arne the attending physician” on Grey’s Anatomy, has produced several concept pieces of TV stars he’s worked alongside as several Hollywood bound Marvel and DC characters, including:

Several images of Kevin McKidd (Journeyman, Grey’s Anatomy) as the Mighty Thor.

Patrick Dempsey (Grey’s Anatomy) as the Sorcerer Supreme, Dr. Strange.

Jon Hamm (Mad Men) as Hal Jordan era Green Lantern.

Interestingly, each of the above actors has at some point auditioned or been talks to play the character. Visit www.arnestarr.com/Pages/Superhero.html to view the images and read Arne’s reasons behind each image.

Arne also emailed me to say:

“Actually do intend on doing a couple of others … one of Adam Sandler as Plastic Man ( I have a friend who is close to him who will get it to him, plus I’ve already been in three of his films, currently visible in Bedtime Stories), and want to do one of Tom Welling IN the Superman suit, since my feeling if they are doing a reboot, possibly without Routh, he’d be perfect after playing Superboy for 8 years, and his current bulk/height  would be perfect for the part.”
