    This series has always benefited from terrific scripts, but it also has had a run of artists that were perfectly suited for what Gillen's imagination brought to the series. Much like last issue's interiors, Carmine di Giandomenico just kills it. That turn from the lighter to the darker moments is so well illustrated. We can literally see Loki go from scared, to sorry, to plain evil, and back to his more usual look in a matter of panels. Angles, lighting, shading, everything works so well in that scene that it's truly memorable and impressive all at the same time. Read Full Review

    Now that fans needn't worry about the Loki/Leah relationship being trampled, they can resume enjoying what is a very dramatic and worthy finish to Gillen's run. Read Full Review

    Way too much reliance on past issues' minutiae, and way too much text in an already hard-to-read Asgardian font by letterer Clayton Cowles. Read Full Review
