Thor caught in a war of eons between two cosmic entities! Can even Galactus and the Silver Surfer tip the balance? An eternal game for the fate of the universe enters its final match, with Oblivion himself ready to take the prize!
Overall, this is a good issue. I think the thing that stood out the most to me in this issue is the fact that Thor is this great, powerful God -- and you really get that sense in this issue because he is battling these extremely powerful cosmic being. So while it does a great job showcasing the capabilities of Thor as a character and a superhero; I don't think it did a very good job introducing readers to Thor's identity. He does not feel very "human" in this issue, but maybe that's how he was supposed to feel. Overall, this oversized issue is worth your $4.99; particularly if you're into those cosmic battles.

It's difficult to recommend this issue to new readers, followers of Fraction's run, or really anyone who hasn't been following DeMatteis' earlier work with the characters. Luckily, there's never a shortage of solid Thor comics on the stands as alternatives. Read Full Review
This annual is not worth its oversized price. If you haven’t read DeMatteis’ previous work with Other, Oblivion, and Scrier, then I recommend you skip this issue. It doesn’t have any effect at all on the main Fraction run
