Fuck yeah! And how about that cover? Absolutely brilliant!!
ALL-FATHER THOR FACES HIS DOOM!

A Doom more powerful than anything that has ever lived. Get ready for the greatest battle the far future has ever seen, as Old King Thor and the Phoenix Wolverine stand together at the end of time against an army of monsters and the final Doom.
Rated T+
In the end, this was an amazing, action-packed, super-fun detour into the future of Thor and the Marvel Universe. If youve enjoyed Aarons take on King Thor in the past, you will love this issue. If youre new to Aarons Thor altogether, buckle up; its a wild ride full of pure insanity, but its worth sticking around for the next big ball of crazy hell inevitably throw your way. Read Full Review
Come for the light show by Christian Ward who positively dazzles with his art, but stay for the ending that melds superheroes and myth in one fell swoop. Read Full Review
The Bottom Line: Yet another gorgeous glimpse into a bleak yet still exciting and dangerous future. King Thor maintains this book's time on Olympus as one of the best things to happen to Marvel in the past two decades. Read Full Review
While the fast pace of the story causes some plot and characterization to fall to the wayside, Jason Aaron's THOR #6 is a fantastic, thematic comic that perfectly examines the worthiness of Thor's place in the future universe. Read Full Review
Doom is back and more powerful than ever before. It's up to the protectors of Midgard and a little help from an old fiery friend to stop him. But are their God-like powers enough for this new God-like Doom? And be careful of talking worms, they may trick you. Read Full Review
Jason Aaron delivers some truly epic action in this issue. I've been on the fence about this trip into Thor's future, but the introduction of Phoenix/Logan and this all-powerful Doom have gone a long way towards making me appreciate and admire the story Aaron is trying to tell. Read Full Review
As strange as it may seem, this interlude has surpassed the main show in Thor. Read Full Review
A lushly drawn narrative set against a cosmic backdrop told with humor and a twist of pathos. This book is one to pick up. Read Full Review
The "Rule of Cool" definitely wins out in this issue over anything else, but it results in a high-spectacle experience that's lacking in substance. Read Full Review
Enthralling. Excellently balanced and enthralling installment. Lots of twists and a fantastic ending. Loved this!
If I could give it 11 I would, but I don't know why everyone likes the cover.
Mythic in the truest and best sense of the word.
Christian Ward's art is incredible.
A beautifully drawn and entertaining issue that pits Old Thor and Old Man Phoenix vs Old Man Doctor Starbrand Ghost Sorcerer Iron Fist Doom. Yes, it’s exactly as fun as it sounds. And the best is still yet to come as Old Loki gains control of the Necrosword. Man, I love you Jason Aaron
One of the best covers I've seen in some time. Might have to get a frame for this beauty!
Damn. Just damn.
Nothing else to say about really.
It is that good.
I will worship all day at the throne of Loki the Necrogod.
This is epic cosmic battle done right, love it! I also love the worm interludes, I wasn't sure where that was going at first but couldn't be happier. My only gripe is that Thor's daughters are essentially forgotten halfway through the issue.
Cant get too much better than this. Lots of fun and a great story to match.
Love the story. Tolerate the art style.
Enjoyed this a lot. The best thing about this story was the interludes.
It's got plenty of guitar-solo grandeur, thanks especially to the exquisite art.
Jason Aaron has played the "THIS IS THE GREATEST COSMIC BATTLE OF ALL TIME" card a bit too much across his Thor run. However - that doesn't stop this from being a gripping read with excellent characterization.
