Thor #15 kicks off the three-part "Revelations" story arc that shows a lot of promise that Thor may be growing up. Aside from the main story beat, there's also an interesting conversation that introduces an interesting twist on Thor and it's a good-looking book along the way too. "Revelations" adds new layers to Thor you may not know you needed. Read Full Review

I've loved everything that Cates has done with his run, and this revelations arc could make for a really impactful entry into the Thor mythos. No matter what happens, the artwork is guaranteed to be on point as Alessandro Vitti and Michele Bandini been putting in work on Thor #15 is any indication! Bandini has solo duties next month, and I expect the excellence to continue. Read Full Review

Another excellent issue in one of Thor’s best ongoing series, this chapter promises to be the start of a big and exciting new entry in Thor’s life, one which will reinvigorate fans for the character and keep them coming back month after month. But even amongst all of the big, character changing moments, Cates manages to find some quieter moments for the character to reflect, and this is a real highlight of the issue. He understands Thor in a way that a lot of writers don’t, which makes his work on the character extraordinary. Read Full Review

THOR #15 is merely a transition issue that sets the groundwork for the next two installments. Readers will find very little action, thrills, twists, or cliffhangers. Yet, they'll leave with some thought-provoking questions and a new outlook on their favorite character. This week's THOR is easy to follow, candid and provides insight into the inner workings of a God. However, as a whole, THOR #15 was missing its normal punch that leaves you excited for the next issue. Read Full Review

" But i am no longer a soldier. "
- THOR

A slower issue, but still really well written. I hope this stuff with Mjolnir leads to something interesting because it's very strange to have another run that features an element about Thor's control of his hammer right after an extensive, long run about that.

I liked the tone of this initial "filler arc", good setting up for the future once again but a little slow with just some filler action. I guess it's a bit predictable what will eventually happen, but lets see what all this set-up will trigger.

Great art from Michele Bandini and a good continuation of the earlier Aaron Kuder arc. I really like the idea of the guest artist all working on this subplot while Kic Klein does the main story.

Cates is taking the opportunity to explore Thor as a king and it's a little depressing, lol.

In the aftermath of the Don Blake fight, Thor gets extra emo about his hammer problems. He has a heart-to-heart with Captain America. This is a quiet, speedy script, but not an inconsequential one. The art is solid throughout, but I think the Avengers scene is the only one where the visuals reach their full potential and deliver the loud counterpoint that the quiet words need.

I didnt mind this issue but, it also wasnt very eventful. I did like some of the ideas they are introducing but, just leave the hammer and Thor alone. Its not really needed.

Great art from Bandini. Story is well written but extremely skeptical of where it is going...

Kind of a slow and awkward transition from last issue. But one that comes back to Thor going through an identity crisis. He feels himself losing connection with the hammer again after being king. All that Thor's been doing up until now was distract himself from the coming separation of him and his hammer. Now there's little to distract him.

Disappointing

Art is good, story not so well, empty or simple.

This was decent and I really enjoyed Bandini's art more than I thought I would but... didn't we JUST had this whole thing with Aaron? Do we need to rehash that again now? Not to mention, if Thor can't lift the hammer because he's a king and not a warrior anymore, why would Loki be able to? He's also a king and he's clearly less of a warrior than Thor. Sorry but that just makes absolutely zero sense. Also, that's not how memory works. Cates really didn't think this through at all, which is a shame because I feel like he respects and cares for the character but I can't just roll with it if it doesn't make sense.

Man, stop with the Mjolnir "being worthy or not" plot! Either have Thor carry the hammer or not! Personally I like that Cates is attempting to craft Thor to be MORE than Mjolnir and becoming a different King than Odin but get on with it for pete's sake! Good issue but these are too short, need more pages of art and story for this chapter of this run.
