ALL-FATHER ODIN, FATHER OF RUIN! ROAD TO THE WAR OF THE REALMS!
For months, the realms have burned with the flames of Malekith's war, while Almighty Odin did nothing. Now Asgardia is lost in the sun, the Rainbow Bridge is shattered and the All-Father sits alone in the empty ruins of Old Asgard, drunk on mead and despair. If Odin is going to save what's left of the realms, he'll have to undertake the most difficult labor of his very long life. Not by being the omnipotent All-Father, but by finally being just a father to the mighty Thor.

You Don't Read Comics - Christopher Landers
Feb 20, 2019Overall, theres not a missed note to complain about in this issue. Aaron is setting all of his pieces in place for The War of the Realms, and each chapter in his prologue is important to the upcoming epic. If he manages to pull it all together for the main story, Realms might go down as one of the greatest Thor stories of all time. Read Full Review

Comicsverse - Raphael Soohoo
Feb 14, 2019Writer Jason Aaron provides us with a hard hitting father-son conflict in THOR #10. The hammers and fists fly, but the core of the story is the conflict in Odin's heart. An abusive father tries to be better. The art team of Del Mundo and D'Alfonso do an amazing job. This was a nice interlude issue before the big war. Read Full Review

Weird Science Marvel Comics - Branden
Feb 15, 2019Overall, Thor puts out a great emotional, and simultaneously action packed issue, that feels more like what we were previously getting from this series, and seemed to be missing a bit lately. The art even comes through in a big way. If this isn't a title you read regularly, I think its one you should then read. Read Full Review

Feb 13, 2019This issue is genuinely compelling, crafting a prelude to "War of the Realms" and a heartbreaking character piece all at once. Read Full Review

Major Spoilers - Matthew Peterson
Feb 19, 2019A tale of dysfunction and rage and terrible parenting, all shown through a prism of gods on the night before their final war. It's hard to read, but very much worth it. Read Full Review

On Comics Ground - Joanna Robinson
Feb 26, 2019The War of Realms is 2 Months away... Thor is working his Hammer off but what is All-Father doing seeing as this is partially his fault for ignoring the other 9 Realms. Read Full Review

Comic Watch - Bethany W Pope
Mar 01, 2019This issue was more considered than the last, written with greater psychological depth and narrative nuance, possibly because Aaron was more comfortable with the characters. Even so, the only female role was occupied by a woman who was talking about her son, while literally in the kitchen. That's...not great. The art was, as ever, perfectly suited to the story. It's worth picking up. Read Full Review

Multiversity Comics - Alexander Jones
Feb 18, 2019"Thor" #10 establishes an interesting rift between father and son but loses some of the nuance Aaron and Mundo's past works are known for. Read Full Review

Poor Odin. This run of Thor has been great.

Heartbreaking issue. Odin wants to be a better father to Thor but ends up making things worse between them. Great art by Mike Del Mundo. The highlight for me was the flashback page featuring the younger versions of Thor. Makes me hope they go back to his classic look soon (long hair and no beard, also not a fan of the golden arm).

Odin gets sloshed and does penance for his poor decisions by provoking Thor into beating him to death. He almost succeeds. Odin's reasoning is human and drama-queen-y and brutal and mythological. Better to perfect his wrongness than admit a mistake, he's thinking. It felt very in-character for Jason Aaron's Odin, but I'm glad the final scene gives him a ray of hope and a hint of change. The art is good stuff and the core conflict is edged with fine plot developments (Loki's parallel dispute with Laufey makes a nice minor-key accompaniment), but the heart and soul of this book are the sad thoughts and deeds of the Allfather.

Bring on War of the Realms already.

While this was definitely an interesting issue to read, the art took a dip in quality again. Anyways, I like the relationship between Odin and Thor in the MCU much much better, but I love Odin's quote at the end.

I don't know if I'm supposed to feel bad for Odin but he really is an abusive shithead. As if being self aware of how bad he is makes it any better. He deserves every smash to the face that he gets.

Heartwarming it is. The Father-son equation was messed up but thanks to the writer for the "I'm proud of you, son" trope. Loki is all up to his games. All-in-all this issue greater than fair but lesser than excellent
