    Yeah.. really not feeling the art at all… it just doesn’t suit this book in the slightest and makes
    the arc feel all over the place with the constant change of artists.

    I’d love to see Mike Deodato return to Marvel and do an arc on the book.

    spoilers:
    I think this issue might be my favorite issue of this run thus far. It seems that Ewing isn't just ribbing consumerism but even MCU Thor himself. Thor was struggling not to "banter" his foe here. I really like that a writer remembers that Thor has a "kill no mortal" code. Too many writers treat him like a "caveman with a club". Also, it seems Dario Agger is dead again, that guy has been through a lot these last few years..LOL. Enchantress setting Thor up to take the fall for this is an interesting strategy to say the least. The art was what it was but it grew on me.

    spoilers:
    Probably one of the more jarring and less than stellar art shifts in the book. Like the art was...serviceable, but some of the faces and paneling left a bit to be desired. I guess fill-ins can't all be winners.

    Thor having to fight against being turned into a quipper like he's from the MCU, knowing how the MCU came to characterize Thor as time went along, was pretty cute in a self-aware way. Thor basically fighting becoming a parody of himself and maintain his character integrity. Or not wanting to be written like Aaron Thor again.

    Thor taking down everything Thor doesn't represent in Chad Hammer in spectacular fashion was pretty satisfying. I wish we had during the Aaron run and not Jane Foster being the best Thor to ever Thor while Thor...wasn't.

    Can't say it's not satisfying seeing Agger with an axe to the back, but it seems like Thor has been framed for double murder. And I guess Amora is in charge of Roxxon now. Not really seeing the endgame.

    Funny enough, I didn't make the immediate connection with Aaron's Thor. But yeah, I'm not sure what Amora is trying to do here. It seems she wants to turn the Earth against Thor or something. As you said, I'm not seeing what she hopes to achieve here.

    Wow there is some incredible machinations this issue, like spoilers:
    damn Amora and Skurge played Dario hook line and sinker. A no more fitting fate for a worthless minotaur capitalist. XD
    end of spoilers

    Very curious the direction where this is going now that spoilers:
    Amora looks to have gained control of Roxxon.

    While the artwork wasn't the best, Lord Ewing's scripting was exquisite. Loved Amora's turn in this and very looking forward to seeing her true plans for Thor.
    Lord Ewing *Praise His name! Uplift Him in song!* Your divine works will be remembered and glorified in worship for all eternity. Amen!

    I love seeing Hermod making fun of Angela.

    Man, this title is really struggling art-wise now.

    Guess Thor can't go on a crime-fighting Midgard montage again.

    Thor has too many siblings. But at least someone is finally cracking jokes at Angela's expense.

    Poor old Tyr's invitation must have gotten lost in the mail

    Tyr's the reason for the get together:
    The Immortal Thor #11
    FOLLOWING UP ON THE G.O.D.S. PAGE FROM IMMORTAL THOR #1! • Tyr had vanished, and there were whispers of cosmic forces at work. And so, the children of Odin gathered in their father's name – to search for one of their own. • Regal Thor, fierce Angela, brave Balder, swift Hermod, quiet Honir, strong Vidar, cunning Loki, even Laussa the youngest, all were there...and another beside. Another, whose name they feared. • This is the story of THE IMMORTAL THOR...and the lost son of Odin.

    No idea how I missed that but good to see he isn't being forgotten

    And these are just all the siblings on his fathers side. Who knows what the figures will be if you add those on his mother’s side as well ..

    Which one, his birth mother, the one who raised him, or the one we don't talk about that will hopefully get retconned out?
