Dec 18, 2015This is an outstanding book that is doing a great job of building towards the The War of Realms. The characterization, the action, the pacing, the artwork" it's all here. Aaron is holding a master class on how good comics are written for $3.99 a month. Read Full Review

Dec 16, 2015The Mighty Thor is a solid book. It's a light read right now but the danger is really mounting against Jane Foster and despite Loki's sinister machinations, the odds might be stacked against him as well. Dauterman really anchors the book but Aaron clearly has a vision for the future of the title. By calling back to so many different pieces of the Thor mythology and combining them in new and interesting way, the creative team is able to keep things fresh without overdoing it the way some of the other "All-New, All-Different" books have tended to.

Dec 16, 2015Thor continues to be a white hot character in the hands of Aaron and Dauterman. Issue #2 doesn't carry quite the same weight found in the debut, but it does serve to shine a spotlight on the book's more secondary characters. Add in a deliciously duplicitous turn by Loki and a great set of spreads by Dauterman and you get another entertaining installment. Read Full Review

Newsarama - Justin Partridge
Dec 17, 2015While this new series' first issue was all about reintroducing us to the new Goddess of Thunder, Jane Foster, Jason Aaron quickly starts to stack the deck against her in this second issue with the inclusion of the Enchantress and Loki into the book's violent proceedings.

Dec 19, 2015This comic is something special. I have loved every issue that Aaron has produced since he picked up Thor, and I hope he sticks around for a long, long time. His stories are epic, his characters are rich, and he's been teamed with some of the best artists imaginable! Read Full Review

The Rainbow Hub - Adam Sorice
Dec 21, 2015On the whole, this is a good issue of Thor- Aaron and artist Russell Dautermann continue to build a visually and politically charged world for Jane Foster where the stakes feel real and the characters emotionally complex. Nevertheless, Loki is a special case at a superhero publisher and deserves particular focus when being utilised by any creative team. At a time when Marvel's queer representation is so abysmal, any LGBTQ character with the sheer luck to have been nurtured in the past should be moving forward, not returning to old tricks.

Comic Book Resources - Greg McElhatton
Dec 21, 2015The story itself -- which sets up Thor and Loki's involvement in the War of the Elves -- is little more than a minor transition, but that doesn't matter when the book looks this good. With a strong setup for "The Mighty Thor" #3 now in place, Aaron's mostly unmemorable script is forgivable because the book is an artistic powerhouse. If only all superhero comics were this pretty to look at. Read Full Review

I can't get enough of Jason Aaron's Mighty Thor. Russell Dauterman's art is perfect for the series and Aaron writes Loki perfectly. Though I don't want Jane to be Thor permanently, it is a great change of pace as she sacrifices her life to be Thor because she has breast cancer.

The artwork is incredible. It's dynamic and beautiful. Really, it's worth the price of admission in itself. Jason Aaron s the greatest living comic book writer. Even though the story here doesn't change the world, it is still pushed forward. I an no fan of Marvels Thor, but I love this book

The title continues to go in the right direction. The villains of the series are introduced with an emphasis on Loki's place in the story. The art continues to be strong. This is one of the titles that I am glad to stick with.

You gotta love Loki. He's just an all around manipulative bad ass and you gotta give him props for that. I liked the fact that Aaron has got ridden of Loki's daddy issues because it was getting very repetitive. The art of Dauterman is good, nothing to write home about. What you really stay for is Loki and his wicked, wicked ways.

We're dropped in the middle of an epic battle that probably should have been showcased more as it broke out. No big deal, Thor is awesome and now Loki is getting into the mix. Like another reviewer commented though, Loki's facial hair looks like pubes, somebody fix that.

Dauterman's art is really good, 'cept for Loki's stubble since it ends up looking more like if someone glued pubes to his face.

I am enjoying the setup for what is sure to come and the art continues to be a strong selling point for this book. I really hope that elements of Loki from Agent of Asgard make their way into this book. I really enjoyed Loki's development/rebirth there. It will be disappointing if he is simply back to his old ways.
