THE DARK PRISON OF DONALD BLAKE!
For years Doctor Donald Blake has wandered a land far from Midgard, the place he once thought home. Now he has returned to the Ten Realms - but it is not the place it was, nor he the man who once shared a body with a god. New terrors await in what is perhaps Donny Cates' darkest story yet!

Word Of The Nerd - Cat Wyatt
Dec 02, 2020Thor #10 is a tense issue, from start right up until the finish. Arguably, it's tense beyond that point as well, as readers are forced to wait a month to see what happens next. This is an epic plot arc, one that is befitting of some of the more popular Thor arcs and events. Read Full Review

Comics: The Gathering - Nick Devonald
Dec 02, 2020Fans of Thor will love Cates’ run on the series, and this arc, Prey, looks to be one of the best yet. He’s managed to introduce readers to a villain who is not only Thor’s equal, but looks to be his superior. The writing is amongst Cates’ best, readers will love every page of this comic. The art team of Klein and Wilson have to be one of the best in modern comics, and pairing them with Cates’ storytelling make this an unmissable comic. Read Full Review

Black Nerd Problems - Chris Aiken
Dec 04, 2020While the latter half of this issue slows down on the action, learning more about Blake's awakening and his time in his cage is definitely enough to keep readers engaged. He's an unpredictable character and that's the most compelling part. We don't know what this former alter-ego of Thor is planning, especially after running havoc throughout Asgard. Readers are in for good things with this arc of Thor and what happens next is anyone's guess. Read Full Review

Henchman-4-Hire - Sean Ian Mills
Dec 05, 2020This was an enjoyable issue as Cates ramps up the new threat and the new story. I'm grateful we got some solid answers as to what is going on, and that definitely helps inflate the drama and the stakes. Read Full Review

While the previous issue introduced us to the new Donald Blake, this issue had him just go off on everyone around him. I couldn't believe what I was reading when he basically took out Beta Ray Bill and every Asgardian that stood in front of him. In was absolutely brutal and I loved every single panel. I also wasn't ready for him to go to Jane at the end, but it's a very welcome surprise with how this arc has been so far. Donny Cates and Nic Klein kill it once again.

THOR #10 Publisher: Marvel @marvel Writer: Donny Cates @dcates Artist: Nic Klein @nic__klein Colorist: Matt Wilson @colornmatt Letters: Joe Sabino @joesabinoletterer Cover: Olivier Coipel @oliviercoipel Laura Martin @lauramartinart Donald Blake, once Thor's mortal vessel, has now became a sentient being and with knowledge of his false life, has grown insane. Trading places with Thor he sets out to destroy Odin and all of Asgard beginning by taking everything that was Thor's leading to a reunion between him and Jane Foster. A great issue with Cates using a long forgotten character and breathing new life and lore into him while respecting what came before. This arc is a must read for new and old Thor fans.

It was a really good read that has me anxious to see what they do next.

Dr Blake seems a little overpowered to be able to take on every Asgardian like this, but it's a cool plot nonetheless.

I can just buy -- barely -- the reasoning behind an imaginary friend like Donald Blake turning into an all-powerful god-killer. But I'm not thrilled with it. I'm of two minds about Don's seeming inability to kill anybody with a name and a backstory: I'd hate to lose, say, Volstagg to this arc, but the obvious plot armor around beloved characters just undercuts Donny's already-tenuous menace. And though the art is generally formidable, facial close-ups reveal weakness in the finish. (I'm hardly the first reader to get over-nit-pick-y when I respect the quality of a given story but just don't enjoy it, right?)

Aren't BRB's enhancements from Korbinite supersoldier experiments? Why would Donald be able to undo them with magic? We're the body modifications on him undone before, and then re-added by OdÃn? Curious about what he will do with Jane.
