Solid story. I appreciate that it isn't just aping off the second film again like so many Aliens stories do. Art is rough though unfortunately. I'm interested enough to keep going, but Larroca's best work seems to be behind him at this point.

The best issue of the series so far. Aaron nails the arrogance necessary in Marvel's Dracula, introduces cool new villains and builds the team dynamic all in one issue. This arc has been excellent so far and if it keeps it up it could be an all timer Avenger story.

Good stuff, but the art mix is distracting. Would be better if it was just Zaffino, as he's the best of the bunch.

Interesting choice for the Phoenix at least. Not my favorite arc; I dig this book more than most I'd say but this was mostly just some nice looking fights. Blade issue and Heroes Reborn have me pretty excited though, especially the Stokoe issue.

My favorite issue in the series in a while. The Dracula subplot has been the best and this update is super interesting for all parties involved. Echo as Phoenix is promising as well. No idea where Heroes Reborn is gonna go but with the line up of artists I'm ready for the ride.

This is the best comic book being published right now. DWJ needs to be allowed to write and/or draw an arc of Thor proper at some point (hell give him the book when Cates is done.)

Could do without some of the "haha the Avengers don't like Dane" stuff as its a bit heavy handed but the rest of this is very interesting stuff and I can't wait to see what Spurrier has in store for the rest of the series.

Better than issue one. Love a good Dracula shout and the cast of characters is an interesting one.

Really good. I'm over all things Thanos, but Gillen and Ribic is too strong a creative team to miss.

Pretty much everything I wanted out of a book called Godzilla vs Thor.

Thor is my favorite Marvel character so I was pretty excited for this. Ewing put a lot of pressure on himself with the name, and I would say the book isn't quite as immediately shockingly good as that firs tissue was. But how could it be? Expectations are there now, whereas Immortal Hulk seemed to come out of almost nowhere. That's enough for comparisons though because this was really great and probably my favorite Thor number 1 since God of Thunder so it deserves to stand on its own no matter how good the previous titles it draws from were. There's a clear interest in what came before (Matt Fraction's run gets a reference! No one references that anymore!) but its not beholden to the same beats that the book has been about for the past ten years. I think that alone is its greatest strength; as much as I adored the Aaron run (its one of, if not my number one superhero run ever), we don't need another story about worthiness or anything like that. Art is really strong, and Matt Wilson continues to be the absolute hero to the Thor series. His consistently great work has given all the disparate artists over the years a bit of unity and I can't be more happy to see him continuing on with the book. The Utgard-Thor in particular has this great, different look to its coloring and art that makes it feel like its truly not a part of this world. Hopefully Wilson, Coccolo (this was my first real exposure to his work as I missed a bunch of Banner of War) and Ewing are in it for the long run. The last run had its moments but real life got in the way a lot. This seems like the follow up to Aaron's saga I always wanted; big, new and exciting. Its a great time to be a Thor fan.

My favorite issue of the series thus far. Thor and Storm's battle and discussion was a highlight, and the gathering of the Thors combined with the continued sheer scale and size that Coccolo gives Toranus has me very excited for the upcoming battle. Even better was the teaser at the end; I'm very glad Ewing is writing that character again and can't wait to see what he's cooking with the teased idea. Last few issues were good but slightly dragging their feet; this one feels much more eventful and I can't wait to see what comes next on multiple fronts.

The Fraction run is not necessarily my favorite but I appreciated the pull from it with the Keep in this one. Ending is not where I expected this to go. Ewing really cooked with this arc.

Fun end to this arc. Really interested in seeing where the Magni stuff goes and happy Agger is still around as a villain. Think people are sleeping on this book in general.

Bazaldua's art is finally finding its footing, and as tired as I am of the Cates "Thanos will kill Thor" thing hanging over the series its used to good effect here.

Great final page. Fun gimmick. Ewing cooked, this last arc is looking like something special.

The art unfortunately never quite turned the corner I hoped for after losing Coccolo, but really interesting stuff for the midpoint of the run. And my dude BRB finally getting some love, love that.

My dog Nova back in a big Marvel Cosmic mini-series? You know its good.

Pretty good stuff. Put Ram V's name on the cover though. He rules.

I missed this series (or I guess I missed the previous series) and its interesting look at death in a superhero universe. Its good to see it again. King in Black has some really interesting mini-series and I haven't yet felt lost for not reading the main book.

Thank you Jason Aaron.

we love a good quint quote in our books don't we folks

Best issue of the series. Pro wrestling ass refusal to go down Namor owns.

Good mini.

Ending has me intrigued at least.

That this book keeps on existing in the current market climate is never short of amazing to me, and that it keeps being so good is even more amazing. An all timer in the making.

Quite enjoying this series. I figured for sure I'd like the writing as Ram V rules, but the real treat has been the art. This is my first time reading Perkins' work and he's creating some very pretty and scary pages. Very curious to see where this goes from here and I wish it was an ongoing, but any Swamp Thing is good to have.

Book continues to look gorgeous and to intrigue. One of the best comics around right now.

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 heavily into this aspect after the book has largely been about the opposite since the start of the Jason Aaron run is a nice change of pace.

Continually interested in how much this run pulls from the Fraction run. Great final page.

Missing the cool extras and back ups form the first issue but still pretty great thus far.

Mythic in the truest and best sense of the word.

Unsure of how I feel about this run so far. It looks great at least but I feel like I'm missing something with the story. I'll stick around for sure but not the knock out blow I was expecting when it was announced.

Off to a good start, although some of the issues I have with the first arc are around. Still, interesting premise, so I'm onboard and hope a more horror themed Thor arc knocks it out of the park.

Two major arcs in a row where Cates doesn't land the ending. The book is still decent but I'm hoping there's more to it soon than just "the BIGGEST and BADDEST thing oh nevermind its over".

This book hasn't been my favorite Thor run in a lot of ways, and I still have problems with it, but the twist here really ripped and is more than enough for me to get exited about Thor again.

multiple man on the page for a panel, blessed content, miss that dude
