Iron Man #1
The unapologetic Iron Man is a once-in-a-lifetime hero - but the beating heart behind the armor is a once-in-a-century genius. Years ago, Tony Stark was knocking on death's door, so he created the Iron Man armor to survive! What happens the next time death comes calling? What weapon does he create then? What if...someone else creates it first? Thes...
The Mortal Thor #6
IN THE COILS OF THE COBRA! The man called Thor is only a man...the Cobra is something else. And he's not alone. Donald Blake has sent four of Roxxon's deadliest assassins after Sigurd Jarlson, and they won't stop until he quits...or he dies. Somewhere in the city, a man with a hammer has a choice to make...

The Mortal Thor #5
ENTER THE SERPENT! The Sons of the Serpent want the man called Thor dead. And they have a name: Sigurd Jarlson. But the man called Thor has a name too...the name of their leader. And that name...is Blake. Somewhere in the city, a man with a hammer faces his enemy...

Nova: Centurion #2
RAVENOUS! Taking a job for the gangsters of the Kree/Skrull War, Nova hunts a mysterium thief. But business becomes personal when the trail leads to an old nemesis, and the opportunity to settle old scores going back to the Annihilation War becomes worth more than any reward. Enter the murderer of untold Nova Corpsmen: Ravenous!
I appreciate Mackeys attention to continuity, which I like but it comes with a BUT. It felt like Mackay was trying a bit too hard to remind readers how awesome Annihilation is. It felt a little forced, not terrible, but the reason I couldn't give this a 10. Just a little nitpick. And Cammy looks a bit weird.
If Mackay is going to continue referencing Nova continuity on basically every

Continually interested in how much this run pulls from the Fraction run. Great final page.
The Mortal Thor #4
MEANWHILE, A TALE OF ASGARD... With nine great realms cut off from the tenth, old enemies grew restless - and hungry eyes fell upon Asgard's empty throne. Ulik, Lord of Trolls, was on the march - and which hero would rise to force him back? And which rabbit would rise to aid that hero? This is the story of THE SON OF THOR...and how his great traged...
Nova: Centurion #1
GOT A PROBLEM? NOVA CAN HELP - FOR A PRICE! With the Xandarian Worldmind, the sentient repository of an entire extinct people's culture and history, relying on regular (and expensive) energy infusions, Richard Rider is for hire. A deep-space drifter weighed down with the truth of the terrible lie that the new Galactic Union was built upon, Nova is ...

Runaways #5
REUNITED RUNAWAYS...FOR NOW? Will Alex and the Runaways be able to put aside their differences and make peace in the face of DOOM? Will Karolina have a change of heart about the Staff of One when the chips are down? Will Chase be able to look past his anger at Gert? AND WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD FOR THE RUNAWAYS?

The Mortal Thor #3
SNAKES IN THE GRASS! Roxxon Construction has a vigilante problem. But whoever this "Thor" is, they know he's only human... ...and the people they've hired to find him are much, much more. Somewhere in the city, a man with a hammer is being hunted...
The Mortal Thor #2
WHO IS THE MAN CALLED THOR? The Thunder Gods were hired to teach a simple lesson - make trouble for Roxxon Construction, and they'll make trouble for you. Now somebody's targeting the bike gang where they live. Somebody who won't give up. Somebody calling himself "Thor." Somewhere in the city, a man with a hammer is getting to work.
Really good issue for an underutilized character these days. I really appreciated the ties to the history of Nova and how it was handled showing the Worldmind's dilemma calculating the answer. Really enjoyable issue overall.
Imperial War: Nova - Centurion #1
FROM THE PAGES OF IMPERIAL! The Xandarian Worldmind will be lost forever...unless Rich Rider can earn the credits needed to keep it alive! So Nova must offer his services to the highest bidder - Have Helmet, Will Travel!

Avengers #29
THE MISSING MOMENT! The AVENGERS have cracked the code...but what does REED RICHARDS have to do with it? The true nature of MYRDDIN is REVEALED!
Ferry was not my favorite Thor artist but I do think he brings a nice dynamism to the violent portions of the book that works pretty well. Here's hoping he has a chance to stick with the book throughout this particular act. Anyway, feels like a slow burn, but I dig it. I happen to enjoy the runs where Thor has a human avatar or form just as much as the crazy high concept stuff, so leaning so heavi more
The Mortal Thor #1
THE LEGEND BEGINS! The Norse Myths tell of Gods who walked the Earth, doing great deeds for the mortals who believed in them. But Asgard isn't real, and never was. The Gods never soared in our skies, never stood with our heroes, never fought for kindness or justice. It was all just a story. Nobody's coming to help us. But somewhere in the city... a...
