Feb 08, 2017The scope and storied past of Thor is rendered well in The Unworthy Thor #4 with the help of every artist who has been a part of Aaron's magnum opus. It's hard to find fault with what is accomplished here, though I do wish the plot in the present pushed forward a bit more than it did. Read Full Review

Feb 13, 2017This comic finally brought me up to the same page aseveryone else with this book. I've been a little hesitant and critical of thisbook in the past but this issue really brought it all together for me. This isthe book I wanted with it was first announced and we've finally reached the climaxof this story. It has heartfelt scenes, incredible action, and a cliffhangerthat will stick in my mind for the next month. I can't wait for more. Read Full Review

Feb 08, 2017Unworthy Thor #4 raised the bar for this story and they have continued to do this since the first issue. If you ever questioned the heart of a god then Unworthy Thor paints a pretty good picture of what it is life for them to have everything to gain and nothing left to lose. The cliffhanger stung being the moment we are all awaiting, though we have two more issues for an actuality to sink in. Read Full Review

Feb 09, 2017Coming to the issue's conclusion, the emotional response felt is only possible because of Aaron's commitment to producing a saga as sweeping as this. Read Full Review

Feb 11, 2017But this issue is even better thanks to the various flashbacks, during which Aaron calls upon the various artists from his Thor run to make them even better. He gives us such great looks into the mind of the God of Thunder over the centuries, and the importance of Mjolnir. I hope Aaron's complete Thor run goes down as a thing of legend when all is said and done. It's just that damn good. Read Full Review

This may be the highlight of Jason Asron's Thor run, and if you've been keeping up with it, that is some pretty high praise

Really cool to see the guest artists in this issue. Ribic's art suits Thor so freaking well.

I was a big fan of the looks into the Odinson's past to highlight the flaws in his thinking. We see how Odinson defined himself by holding the hammer even before he could. That thinking is the driving force in this limited series. It is a really great tale with some of my favorite art in a Marvel series coming from Coipel. I can't wait for the conclusion.

Another great issue in this mini-series. The plot doesn't move forward a lot, but, as Aaron continues thoroughly exploring the relationship between Thor the Mjolnir, the story finally gets its worthiness. What started as just an enjoyable tale is turning into an important part of Thor's saga. The different artists are all excellent and the idea to insert the guests' flashback scenes between Coipel's pages works flawlessly. My only disappointment in this series is, for now, that the story is quite messy, but I trust Aaron and I believe everything will pay out sooner or later.

Gah, that last page! I am unworthy of this comic book!

The Odinson fights his way to the Ultimate Mjolnir. Along the way, a smorgasbord of artists illustrate Mjolnir-centric flashbacks in his life. While there's some strong writing here, the ultimate point of the issue really feels like "this story has to be five issues long if it's gonna make a decent trade." Main artist Olivier Coipel seems too rushed to invest the Odinson's main fight with the grandeur it could/should have.
