Anyone reading the Oeming Thor ?

[r100comics]

I actually stopped reading Thor after Jurgens' Thanos/Mangog story arc because I couldn't stand the poor writing, and character inconsistencies. I have picked it up again with the new writer, and I have to say, the current Ragnarok arc is the best Thor since Walt Simonson.

 

Seeing Thor fighting Durok the Demolisher (remember him ? ), without his hammer, and destroy him with a rain of lightning bolts was just awesome. I needed something to wash away the taste of JLA vs Avengers #2....

R,

 

What is Oeming Thor? I just bought all the the recent Thor's 1-81 and I haven't finished reading all of them yet. About two months ago I wondered if Durok ever made another apperance and the answer I got back was no. I will defintely pick these up but do you have a link or scan of the cover so I can track it down.

Oeming (Michael Avon) has gained a bit of popularity as the artist for Powers and as a creator for [!@#%^&^] Samurai and something else thats kind of a goofy Thor that I haven't read.

 

He's plotting (not doing art) the Thor books as of the last few issues. I haven't read them yet, as I'm 5 years behind on my Thor reading, but flipping through them, the book has changed dramatically, and judging by the style alone, I like it.

I just read issue #81 after I saw this thread and there is his name right on the cover. I don't have issue #82 yet but apparently it is outstanding. I'm still catching up on the last few years of Thor myself but so far it looks pretty good.

Oeming's involved with Marvel's Thor? I thought you meant HIS Thor comics.

It starts in Thor #80 a six part series...They are getting hard to find.

So how is it? I liked his art on Powers, but am not familiar with his writing.

Good stuff so far. I think the other Thor-like book everyone is mentioning is "Hammer of the Gods" which he drew and co-plotted w/ Mark Wheatley on. I enjoyed "Hammer of the Gods" as well.

I think issue #80 is sold out on both Lone Star and Mile High's site which drives me bananas because its the only (one other than 82) to complete my run. Also, I recently read issues 20-25 with Thanos and Mangog which were awesome but issue 21 continues on to the Thor annual which I do not have.

I was lucky enough to get the issue's off Ebay just haven't recieve them yet

The Ragnarok story line has been excelent.

I wonder if Thor will time travel again though to fix it all or will Odin come to life!

I think I can get an 80 at my LCS. I was able to get 80-82 yesterday and I think there were a couple of 80's left. PM if you're interested.

[Silver Surfer]

If Durok is in issue #82 then I can't wait-just ordered my copy. Also, picked up another 30 or so modern issues of Thor. My run from about issue 275 to the present is almost complete.

[OldGuy]

The last page of #82 is worth the price of admission.

That's one nude Thor Girl pin-up I would never have expected!

[Silver Surfer]

Since I have to wait about two weeks to get my copy, how the heck does Durok get brought into the story?

I couldn't say. I haven't read the run yet. I just flipped through #82 and the last page prompted me to buy 80-82.

In his plot to unleash Ragnarok, Loki has gathered up some of the greatest ever enemies of Asgard, and Durok is amongst them. In addition to his previous powers, Durok can now also unleash powerful energy bolts from his hands.

Another shock in this issue is that Kurse (who is 4 times as powerful as Thor) is decapitated defending the children of Asgard, possibly by Fenris the Wolf who is larger and more powerful than ever.

Thank you for the spoiler, can't wait. Durok if you remember back in issues 192, 193 could shoot bolts of enery from his hands. Love those issues. Kurse is in it as well.

I haven't read #192 / #193 for years, I didn't remember Durok doing this but of course you are right now I think about it !
