The door was the first thing I thought of. Everything else was built out around it. Of course how to show it was easier said than done.

I kind of envisioned it as something like the SHIELD facility built around Thor’s hammer in the first Thor movie and figuring out how to execute that was part of the planning.  I needed to make the reveal epic and badass. This forced me to make the page bigger making more work for myself.

On a side note, in my original version, I wanted the door to only have one side. But I couldn’t figure out how to visualize it without explaining it.
