Well. First of all, I don't think Odin looks that bad. I get SERIOUS vibes of a Superhero version of Clancy Brown or Sam Elliot.

And damn, I feel like JKthemac, I swear I'm no Cates fanboy.
...

Oooh shots fired! xD

If this does happen, then I will feel very smug about myself because having read what he did and given the opportunity to use it/write for marvel, I would have been able to...

I didn't say he was Original. Duh!

Even as a major opponent to anything Aaron. I actually think this recent "change" in Thor's origin story isn't totally stupid and wrong. Now bear with me here. I will try to explain why I kinda like...

Lee M. Hollander, in his introduction to his translation of the poem, claims that it was in no sense a popular lay and suggests we should not necessarily believe that the accusations of the "sly god"...

I will agree with you here that Aaron's Thor is closer to the Myth than the Superhero in major ways. In others, mainly his ability to handle hardships, the stories we do have about Thor paints him in...

I think Blake basically did get a "no sell" reaction from that. Volstagg punched him in the face from the side. Blake got pushed a little (even IF he has the same strength/density as an asgardian he...

Why? Volstagg's got Class 50+ ton super strength. He's like one of the strongest Asgardians after Thor. Him punching Blake should be taken seriously, even if he's not taken seriously as often as he...

I understood it perfectly. The serpent opened the tap to give Blake power, that meant that Blake realized that he's basically a piece of the Odin force or since he is part of Thor he has access to...

At least Ares will approve of this issue........

I also liked it. Shameless, mindless edge lord fun.

Oooh, just a funny tidbit. Some of Aaron's detractors have said that he writes Thor as a Barbarian (which is kind of apt, now I don't -really- have a problem with Viking/Barbarian Thor as a concept)...

I mean, and this is coming from an Open-minded Atheist/ cynical-agnostic, Aaron's pretty vocal about his atheism and how he REALLY doesn't like gods right? He's also of the era of deconstructionist...

If Bendis went around telling everyone what a large fan of the previous writer he was/is and how much he loved it and then in the book he's taken over, he either changed or just ignored large...

Cates delivers. I'm still wary, this could be another fakeout like God of Thunder. Where after the first "establishing" arc, the writer starts to poo poo all over the main character and introduce...

Loved the She-hulk issue.

Calling it now though. Leader's great plan is to become a stop-light. And then a Yellow hulk will break the two other lights. xD

I am astonished of how Al Ewing could, in a few panels, make Thor sound both wise, noble and a bit weary but also sensitive enough to ask Jen her preferences and just accepted her words. I might be a...

Lol now when I think about it. Aaron made light of two subjects during his stint.

Depression and Alcohol abuse.

Both used with Thor Odinsson for comedic effect.

In Thor nr 1 he does spill a whole bunch of it though. I assume it's mead. Though I'd say it's an appropriate setting for mead.

Yeah. He was -clearly- a fan of Aaron and not one of Thor. And he was clearly very fond of his own opinions. I will hand it to him though, he could argue TIRELESSLY to defend Aaron to the point where...

Hah! True. xD You're absolutely right. Now would you like a pair of thick glasses to push up the bridge of your nose to go with that "Um Actually!"?

;) Seriously though. Perfect reply, made me...

Finally
As an example on what I mean about not "getting Aaron" I'll pose this. Aaron posed that he wanted to explore worthiness and what it meant to be Thor buuuuut.
1. Odin put that enchantment on...

INCOMING WALL OF TEXT. I'm Sorry!


His normal state is with the OF now sooo.. still not a fair fight. Repelling Galactus, ehhh.. I'm gonna chalk it up to Galactus being weak and not wanting to...

Not about to defend Cates. But I'm pretty sure those aliens does have some kind of superstrength at least on par with standard Asgardians. Because in the panel with Volstagg, Balder is physically...

Yes. It is so that Thor Odinson will always remember that he shouldn't listen to old, one-eyed, patriarchs if he wants to be worthy.

The whole mess with Nick Fury Sr makes no sense to me.

No it was a comment on Aaron's tweet about him hating to explain his story to people and allowing his writing to speak for itself. But when you're not a good enough writer and you say that, it's...
