THE "ASGARD/SHI'AR WAR" HEATS UP!
• Not all gods are equal, and to prove that they're the mightiest, the Shi'ar gods infiltrated Asgard and kidnapped Thor and forced her to be a contestant in their Challenge of the Gods.
• The prize? They won't kill the people of Midgard.
Rated T+
Mark The Mighty Thor down as the most epic and fun filled time you can have when parley is involved. Aaron and Dauterman have a series that's epic in scope and a thrill to read. Read Full Review
You have to hand it to him" Jason Aaron plays for keeps on every single page in every storyline. This tale puts Thor's godhood to the test and looks damn good doing it. We'll be talking about Aaron's run in ten years. I guarantee you that. The Mighty Thor is undeniable. Read Full Review
In an issue that actually tries to avoid confrontation, Dauterman and Jason Aaron still manage to deliver a ton of it, with plenty of terse standoffs and equally electric action spreads driving the read. Read Full Review
Awesome "Godly" issue, very bold direction. Well paced as usual.
This is awesome. Aaron is continuing his epic story regarding the true nature of all gods, and Russell Dauterman is just incredible on art here. The Shi'Ar gods come across as a more than formidable threat, and Jane once again proves her mettle as Thor. Outstanding...
This issue takes an unexpected turn. The Challenge of the Gods is an interesting idea and I'm eager to see what will come out of it. The artwork is fantastic as always: dynamic, colorful and with very original panel compositions. Moreover, I love it that, since the last issue, they include concept art and letters at the end.
Wow Shi'ar gods are jerks. I won't be praying to them anymore!! I like where this story is going and hope to see more. The art and coloring beautiful and I really do hope to see more action next issue.
This is definitely not what I was expecting. Instead of Asgard vs the Shi’ar empire it looks like this story will about Thor vs Sharra and K’ythri. Still interesting but I feel like we could have gotten so much more
Git 'em Thor, F those narcissistic gods up! Oh, and the filibuster? Brilliant! I tip my hat to you Aaron.
The Shi'ar gods have snatched Thor out of the War of the Realms for some sort of celestial pissing match, and she's exactly as angry about this stupid plot twist as she should be. I'm very ambivalent about the "pantheon of ridiculous gods a la Terry Pratchett" direction the author is taking; interrupting a big dumb war with an entirely different big dumb war feels to me like bad plotting. Russell Dauterman's art is beautiful as ever, at least.
