Dec 13, 2023The Immortal Thor #5 ends the first arc in Al Ewing's run with a suitably epic battle to save the world. Ewing's resolution to the Toranos problem is clever, and the art team's delivery looks as epic as it should. Read Full Review

Dec 15, 2023:Immortal Thor #5 concludes the fight between Thor and his new Thor Corps against the gargantuan Toranos. The art in this comic is great thanks to the art team, who make this comic look epic. Meanwhile, the actual fight is a little disappointing, and Toranos is an underwhelming villain as he doesn't do much except spout threats and throw his giant wheel. However, Thor's plan to defeat him is creative and a little cheesy in essence but it fits him, his newfound status, and this series, and I'm still excited to see more. Read Full Review

Al Ewing and Martin Coccolo deliver a thunderous finale to the series' first arc with a pulse-pounding showdown that throws Thor and the reimagined Thor Corps against Toranos, a threat that could crack the very fabric of reality. Coccolo's art is the standout in the issue, flourishing in the action sequences, capturing the chaotic beauty of godly warfare with vivid colors and dynamic panel layouts. Each member of the Thor Corps looks elegantly powerful and he continues to depict Toranos as a truly existential threat fit for the Gods. His art has blown my mind multiple times in this still young series and he blew it even further here. Ewing's story is a triumphant conclusion to an epic arc. It's a comic that delivers big on action, characte more

While al Ewing hasn't been one of my favorite writers, I will give credit to where its due. And this issue was pretty much a banger. Martin Coccolo's art is beautiful, and I love the way Thor defeats the enemy. If Immortal Hulk was more horror based and wanted to have a character analysis on what makes Hulk interesting, this is a more opposite approach but the same character analysis. Al Ewing may be a hit or miss for me. But when he hits, he hits hard and good. This is a rare masterpiece for me.

Not really what I was expecting, but still an awesome issue. I particularly loved how Thor beat Toranos here. Cóccolo also continues to put out some fantastic art in this issue. I don't really have much to say about this one, other than that I really enjoyed it and that Ewing is definitely one of the best writers at Marvel right now, if not the very best.

I accidentally wrote all of my thoughts about this two issue arc on the previous review so you can see my detailed thoughts on both this and previous ish on the #4 page.

The script is a classic Al Ewing joint: a little epic cosmology, a little cool combat, and a hero triumphing thanks to cleverness. (I think that's entirely appropriate for Thor, who is no dummy--and who has been tangling with Loki for centuries.) The art is by no means disappointing, but neither is it awe-inspiring. The cosmological spreads are appropriately epic, but the fight scene feels a little by-the-numbers. The villainous foreshadowing isn't as tense as it could be. If you've read Avengers Inc #3 (and you should have!), you'll know that Skurge shouldn't be taken at face value. And that means his surprise last-page ally probably shouldn't be, either.

I'm not sure I get the hype with this issue. I felt like I really wanted to like this, but just felt like another final battle we've seen a million times in Marvel stuff.

I like fights that end with peaceful means, but this one didn't worked for me. Still don't like how BRB now using Twilight wasn't used at all, specially how his line about using Mjolnir.
