I had a complete run of Thor from the 60s to the present day which I finally interrupted due to how Thor has been written in the recent past.

I hope there will be an epic Thor saga for me again at...

Adam Warlock comes to mind, particularly as handled by Jim Starlin.

I had forced myself to forget Thanos Rising ever happened until you reminded me. That was an absolute disgrace and Aaron should not be allowed near any cosmic/god like characters at all.

To be...

Aaron's Thor is absolutely repugnant to me. It's an infantile and uninteresting Thor he has presented and he has done his best to cheapen the whole mythos. All of the cosmic glory of the gods has...

I agree with this part of your review. This new version could not interest me less and seems unworthy of the character. I'm glad you enjoyed it though.

Profoundly underwhelming, I agree. I will gladly forget this run ever happened.

No one said that the book didn't have people buying it, perhaps even a lot of people new to Thor, so that's something to note for certain. The parts which deal specifically with Jane in isolation...

To be fair your responses are so predictable as to deserve the parody.

You're just about the only one on here who refused to see the obvious.

Yes exactly :)

It's pretty clear why so many of us find this run just plain old shoddy. There's a kind of cheap revisionism in the writing which plays itself out through the typical comic 'jobbing' (super powerful...

It's hard for me to believe that there are many readers of Thor who actually liked this run aside from the one poster who seems compelled to defend it in virtually every thread on Thor.

I am not...

I am a huge fan of Thanos and always have been but I find this run amateurish. It reads the way battleboards might in a forum and not like a well crafted story.

And how can Thanos do all this...

Easily the most absurd arc I have ever read in Thor. Just unbelievably bad.

Why stop here? Let's have Jane come back from the dead and take out Galactus and a few Celestials while Odin and Thor...

That's true and it's a very widespread trend these days I am afraid.

He's the new breed of writer who might as well be writing his own characters entirely and not figures in the Marvel universe. I find it endlessly annoying.

I'm with you on this 110%.

They are just pulling it out of their asses at this point. The destroyer never had that element and no one could pull it apart. The mangog has always been a subpar character in my book but either...

One of the worst issues of Thor I have ever read. And the destroyer getting punked like that is absolutely absurd. It was made to battle celestials, not some overhyped old threat which is not even a...

So Black Bolt had nothing to do with it but he just happens to scream right before the celestials are killed? Perhaps, though maybe Cates got some backlash and backpedaled a bit. I'll keep reading,...

Huge Thanos fan here but this is extremely poorly written.

When Starlin has Thanos occasionally do things at this absurd power level, there are significant boosts and reasons which are developed...

I am really looking forward to the follow up on this and hope that the 'beyond' they tease is Thanos taking it to whatever remains of the Beyonders!

Great series so far.

I am a big Thor fan and also in favor of beefing up female characters etc but this has been a very forgettable run of Thor for me. Jane is definitely low on my list in terms of interest and the...

By far my favorite book from Marvel! I love the attention to higher stakes as well as to Marvel lore. I hope everyone here tells others about the book as it deserves to really prosper. Ewing gets it.

I agree 100% on all counts actually. Hickman's Thanos was beyond awful and Starlin's had/has a beautiful sadness and majesty to him.

So will we ever see the conclusion of this one? I thought it was supposed to completed already and they were just waiting for the right time to publish it. Does anyone know what happened?

I was...
