I'm going to put this over the cliff for the rating because it represents a return to what I enjoyed so much about the Ultimate line. I feel like the line's lost its way a little, but this comic feels like an old blade that's been sharpened in a way you didn't think was possible. I really hope this is a sign of more to come in the Ultimate universe. Read Full Review
Only the first issue of this miniseries, but I loved it. Nazi Frost Giants invade Asgard to initiate Ragnarok. Let that sink in for a moment. If that isn't enough to get you interested, this book probably isn't for you. Read Full Review
I don't expect this series to play out in a straight line from point A to point B. There will be twists and turns, but I'm looking forward to it. I think this book will prove to be a definite favorite of mine in the Ultimate Universe. Read Full Review

"Ultimate Comics Thor" #1 sets up the remainder of the series with a Nazi invasion of Asgard in 1939, while also delving into Thor's early days on Earth after seemingly being created by Professor Braddock. Hickman drives the plot using the differing points from the regular Thor, while Pacheco's visuals are dynamic and fit the look of the Ultimate Universe. Read Full Review
Ultimate Thor 1 starts all 3 stories for this mini, and the parts of the issue taking place in 1939 and the one eons who are tremendously written and engaging by Hickman. The first story taking place in the present was a little slow and boring but I have no doubt it will hook me in next issue

Not impressed. Can't understand such a high rating. But overall the comic isn't really bad. Maybe it's not for me, but I'm not interested in the next issue even if this one wasn't bad, so I wouldn't buy the next one.
