Hi everyone,
I'm reading the collected trade edition of Thor: God of Thunder #s 1 to 5 (Gorr the God Butcher story-line), but am curious about some of the key issue designation in this series:
-Has the market settled on issue #4 as Gorr's second appearance even though Gorr also had a small cameo appearance in #3?
-Is issue #5 considered Gorr's origin even though there is hardly any reference to Gorr's origin story? I think #5 might have Gorr mentioning that he originated from a forgotten world but I didn't see any other origin details in it. I see lots of ebay listings claiming that #5 as the Origin of Gorr issue so it makes me wonder.
-Issue #6 is Gorr's detailed origin story and #5 seems to be a very brief origin of Gorr?
-Issue #25 is the first appearance of Jane Foster as Thor in the 616 Marvel Universe? This issue is not part of the Gorr God Butcher story arc but I'm intrigued if this will emerge as a prominent key issue in the future.
P.S. Yes, I know that the big keys in this run are issue #2 (first Gorr) and #6 (first cameo appearance of Knull), but am curious about the investing potential of more minor keys like #5 and #25.
BTW, I'm loving the Esad Ribic art work, it's fantastic! What a fantastic collaboration between Jason Aaron and Esad Ribic. I will be reading #s 6 to 11 (God Bomb story arc) next.
Thanks for any info about the above issues.
