All in all, this was a story worth telling through Thor #7 and 8. It didn't hurt one bit to ask what it meant for Thor if the hammer was getting heavier for him. And it didn't hurt to show what it looks like when someone else is able to pick up his hammer with ease. Read Full Review

"Thor #8" is a fun, light, and surprisingly vital issue in a historically heavy run Read Full Review

Ultimately, this week's THOR (and last issue) were a bit of a letdown. Maybe it's because the first arc was so fast-paced, large, and explosive? Or maybe Cates was focusing more on Knull and the KING IN BLACK during these issues and gave us some filler for the time being? Who knows? I just know I've read better from Cates and I left this week's THOR a bit disappointed. Read Full Review

Thor and Iron Man work out their beef in a good, quiet little issue. Read Full Review

Readers coming to this issue expecting answers from the previous issue will unfortunately find themselves disappointed. Readers coming to this issue looking for more of Donny Cates excellent run on Thor will find a number of fan pleasing moments within, just don’t come looking for answers. There is some great art in this issue and a few panels in particular will really stand out from the crowd. Read Full Review

Maybe this is just the calm before the storm (no pun intended), but this side-step for Thor has been far less interesting than the first arc of Cates' series. Read Full Review

This was very well-done. Cates took a “filler” story and made it heartfelt and powerful with Thor’s, respective, interactions with Adam and Tony. Plus, it ends up tying in to the next big arc of the run. Kuder continues to have great art that fits right in with this lighter story. Overall, I’d day this two-issue arc was simply great.

All the way back to the Silver Age, I've liked Thor better when he's interacting with the mundane world rather than fighting ultimate cosmic battles of destiny. So this issue was a real treat; it helps a great deal that Donny Cates brought some deep warmth to the dialogue.

This issue has one of my favorite comics page. Delightful!!

A good issue as always!

This was a really fun issue. I really love the interaction between Tony and Thor. I really can't wait to see what Thor is planning with Donald Blake. The turning it on and off part makes me think we're going to see a return of the dual identity? And that's fucking crazy, man. And I think from the previews, it's not going to go well.

I liked it. Kuder's art fit well with this story. Writing between Tony and Thor was great.

Overall just a nice comic to read once in a while, showing that Cates can write smaller stories with Thor.

Some nice character development here. Let's keep the prank war with Tony going!

A nice end to the 2 issue arc. Thought Kuder's art looked really good here.

Love me a two issue arc. This one worked well.

This was pretty good I really like the artwork

" Come on, man. Please don't make this a thing. My history in this town with guys with hammers is spotty at best, and i really don't need---"
- TONY STARK

A fun little arc. It was really interesting to see an ordinary man with the hammer. I love when Thor humbles and intimidates Tony Stark. Overall, a fun read that was very enjoyable.

provides little in the way of answers as to that moment from last issue, but it's a very cute issue. These past two issues have felt more like Thor the Mighty Avenger, which is great. More comedic and light in tone, which is a nice change of pace for a character who has gone through as much as Thor has in the past decade. Looking forward to the next issue!

Very good issue. Would have been great if it weren't for the way Tony was characterized and how Thor reacted to him.

Your average Donny Cates comic...Meh.

Honestly, if anyone ese wrote this, the masses would probably give it a 4.

filler. That's it.

Next.
