You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Jul 06, 2022Grnbekk is putting quite a few different plot elements into play in the second issue. Given how much is going on, its remarkable that it all feels distinct. The pacing of the action feels tight without feeling rushed, which is a great accomplishment given the fact that action and mystery are being filtered through the panels in equal measure. Grnbekk has a very deft handle on storytelling in yet another satisfying issue. The series reaches its halfway point next month. Precisely what Foster and her allies are dealing with should loom large as the series reaches its third of five issues. Read Full Review

AIPT - David Brooke
Jul 06, 2022Epic in scale, Jane Foster & The Mighty Thor #2 ends up sidelining Jane Foster for exposition. It's doing the heavy lifting to explain how large this story is while also continuing to write Jane and other characters accurately in the modern era, which makes for an entertaining chapter. It's just a letdown it has to get all this exposition out of the way before the story gets to its next exciting chapter. Read Full Review

I was confused by the beginning of this. I have no idea where Thor is, why was he there, or who the villain was. Then he throws away his only weapon for Jane. I hope they clear this up, but it had me scratching my head. No setup. Once Jane gets the hammer and is searching for him, it picked up. I also liked seeing Sif battling. It was a real shame to see what they did to her in the movie.

This is a busy story. The writer has a knack for keeping it moving while still indulging her passion for purple prose; the sharp pivots from elegant language to exciting plot development are (usually) strong. The art is frustrating. It does good visual storytelling, and some panels (particularly faces) are shockingly beautiful. But on balance, the lines are faint and sketchy, sometimes overwhelmed by the colors. I find it an imperfect issue, but also a satisfying and engaging one.
