Taika Waititi’s Thor: Ragnarok did a lot of great things for the Marvel Cinematic Universe when it debuted back in November.
The character evolved a bit over the course of Ragnarok’s development, and a new design revealed by concept artist Ryan Meinerding has shown that she almost had another totally awesome look.
Chief among these accomplishments was the introduction of Tessa Thompson’s endlessly badass Valkyrie, a jaded and alcoholic (albeit still undeniably cool) hero who commanded the respect of Thor (Chris Hemsworth).
