This was NICE.
I enjoyed Thor #4. I love his interaction with Galactus.

Oh, I was worried it was going to be like the past era where Thor is a complete mess and slob and needs to be told off for it... Originally Posted by The Cool Thatguy

Excellent issue, my favorite so far, Thor had to make that hard decision.

Don't worry, I'm sure he will, and this seems to be Cates' MO, start with an epic grand scale arc, and then do some massive chracter development, it's exactly what he did in Venom. Originally Posted by CaptainMar-Vell92 of the Kree

What happened to JKtheMac though? I wonder what he thinks of these recent issues if he didn't drop Thor the moment Aaron left. Originally Posted by Frontier

We need more Superman-style introspective stories with Thor, exploring his compassionate side and how he relates to regular people, Originally Posted by Wall-Crawler

That's what I liked about this issue and this series in general. Even as the king of Asgard who sees the big picture with the Black Winter, he still remembers the people. If he can't save them, then he'll avenge them. Great stuff! Originally Posted by CaptainMar-Vell92 of the Kree

The tears in his eyes as he told Galactus he'll pay for what he did was a very nice touch. Originally Posted by Tien Long

Exactly. Again, Thor may be a god. Hell, he's king of Asgard now. But he still remembers us mortals. That's a trait some people tend to forget about Thor Originally Posted by CaptainMar-Vell92 of the Kree

In any case, yeah, I'm digging this storyline. It would have been easy to pass it off as Thor being turned into an unquestioning loyal herald of Galactus. But no, Thor reminds Galactus where the lines are in the relationship.
Plus we get to see Thor shoot lighting and throw his hammer. Good enough for me
!
iinally, that scene with Thor and Galactus staring down the Black Winter:
Chilling. This nearly shapeless, ominous mass dwarfs Galactus and REALLY dwarfs Thor."I am a man of peace."

Just how many eldritch abominations does Marvel have? We have Shuma-Gorath, the Cancerverse, the First Firmament, the One Below All and now this. Originally Posted by Tien Long

Still on the fence with this run. Thor doesn’t seem like Thor as much as I’d hoped. I’m sticking with it, but Cates has a tendency to just go a little too big without a decent amount of build up.
I actually think he writes a great Bill. Thor needs a little bit of a depower and a bit more relatability...but I’ll see where it goes.
