THOR'S MIGHTY PREQUEL TO THE UPCOMING VIDEO GAME, MARVEL'S AVENGERS!
The adventure leading to MARVEL'S AVENGERS continues, with an all-new story leading directly into the events of the highly anticipated video game! When the GOD OF THUNDER uses his mighty Mjolnir to aid TONY STARK, a.k.a. IRON MAN, with his latest experiment, why does this lead to an unexpected Asgardian encounter...and a one-on-one battle between THOR and the green gamma goliath known as THE HULK?! Is all as it seems, or is an ancient enemy planting seeds of distrust that will bloom into the disassembling of the AVENGERS?!

Despite a somewhat odd artistic style in calmer moments, this character piece on the Mighty Thor and his place in Marvel's Avengers is more than worthy of readers' attention. Read Full Review
It feels like it'll be an important comic for those wanting more backstory on the game since it sets up the potential for discord within the Avengers team, but the dialogue between Thor and Banner during their quarrel just didn't feel genuine even if they were being manipulated. Read Full Review
The dialogue's feeble. The art is solid, although Mr. Gill has some trouble making the videogame Thor design look good. And I like the nod to Jack Kirby's earliest Thor comics -- Loki is foiled thanks to water here, and in those first books water was full-on Kryptonite to his magic powers.
