THOR: THE TENTH REALM
• Thanks to the events of ORIGINAL SIN, the deepest secret of the Nine Realms is revealed... a Tenth Realm!
• Thor and Loki embark on a quest to discover this strange new world -- and the sister Thor never knew he had... Angela!
• But can Loki be trusted? And will brother and sister murder each other before the truth comes out?
This mini-series started as a good Loki/Thor story and morphed into some good character moments for Loki. In the final issue it seems to simply exist to pull the next Thor out of her current situation. Not much to do with Original Sin or to do with Thor. This was a disappointing and unnecessary issue.

Once again, there is a shake-up in the art team on this title. Simone Bianchi, Lee Garbett, Szymon Kudranski and Marco Checchetto are all credit with the art, with Riccardo Pieruccini on additional inks and Adriano Dall'alpi, Nolan Woodard and Paul Mounts on colours and VC's Joe Sabino on letters. First off, I really don't get what the idea was behind so many artists in this series, especially this issue. Is this a case of Marvel's 2-week interval on event comics proving to be a bad thing for artists? It sure feels like that. Because there really is no reason why a more limited art team can't put out five issues by itself. In this issue, this big jumble hurt the reading experience more than it has previously and I find myself once again disappointed. Read Full Review
Why all the hate? Issue 5 was the weakest, but the entire mini was great.
