 hit the Internet which give fans a taste of the film. In two of the pictures, fans can see Thor on a dark set where he is looking upwards with a concerned expression. On his back, the hero is seen chained to a set of terrifyingly sharp horns, and comic book fans were quick to notice how similar they were to Surtur.

If you are not familiar with Surtur, then you should know the Marvel villain is not one you’d want to anger. The character comes straight from Marvel Comics and is based off the fire giant Surtr from Norse mythology. Surtur is the fire demon of Muspelheim, one of the Nine Realms which is bathed in fire.

 last year at San Diego Comic Con. ComicBook.com was present for Marvel Studios’ panel at the event, and we were able to witness the character’s entrance. Our own Lucas Siegel had this to write about Surtur’s on-screen debut:

As he dives to what\'s below him, everything around him is on fire - and that\'s when you realize, there\'s a face, and out of that face a louder scream than the Hulk\'s. It\'s Surtur, the fire demon of Muspelheim.”
