Thor: God Of Thunder

[MatMarvelV1]

A lot of us have been pretty down on Marvel recently (including me) but thanks to a fellow CS member Lee K, I picked up Thor: God Of Thunder and have been really enjoying it. The art is nice, the initial storyline is intriguing and I'll be honest going back to my first love of mythology based hero stories is a nice change of pace.

 

Why not check out this book and LMK if I'm losing it, just nostalgic or it really is enjoyable?

I do believe is one of marvels best books with this whole marvel now thing they are doing.

[Tuff Ghost]

This book is sooooooooo good. I would still pay full price just for the art. The fact that there is a story is just a bonus

 

All you need to know is that Jason Aaron is focusing this new series around THOR in 3 different time periods

 

Young THOR

Current THOR

Old THOR

 

This current arc's story involves all three time periods. I thought this might just be for the first arc but Aaron says that for his entire run he plans to do different stories in all the time periods. Really excited to see what he comes up with.

 

Wish I could afford the cover to 1&2 ... only $11,000

This, All New X-Men and Scarlet Spider are the only Marvel books that I have enjoyed.

 

It is nice to see them bring back the mythology, as I think those have always been the best stories for Thor.

I think avengers has been a good book also

I think avengers has been a good book also

 

To give background I've read almost 0 Marvel titles before besides Astonishing X-Men (Whedon). Took the NOW! opportunity to try a few titles. Enjoying All New X-Men, Avengers, and FF along with THOR.

This is a good read. Not big on super hero titles but Aarons take on Thor is intriguing and fun.

[Comicopolis]

It's probably the best Thor book that Marvel have published in a while.

 

I still hate the font they use for the Asgardian speech though.

[400yrs]

This is a good book. I'd prefer more cartoony art rather than the realistic painted look, but I understand how people love the art.

 

Hawkguy may be the best Marvel book going right now though.

Did someone call me?

I picked up the new Thor on a whim and I was quite surprised on how good it has been. I can't wait to read the next issue this week. Hawkeye and Thor are neck in neck as my fav Marvel books right now.

[gaz973]

I hadn't been getting Thor for a while but since I'd been hearing good things about the relaunch, it's going on my pull list and I'll be looking for the issues I missed.

[Whizzer]

I have never liked Thor. Gave this a try along with all the other Marvel Now first issues and it is superb. This is how Thor should always be done.

[MatMarvelV1]

Good responses so far, at least it means I'm not losing it (completely!) If you are new to the book you should also check out the letters page, which is quite amusing

Did someone call me?

 

Yeah dude, your mushu pork is ready, oh and when you pick it up watch out from some dark creature lurking in the shadows!

[ChrisInBaltimore]

Yea if you aren't reading this and Hawkeye you are really missing out. Two of the best Marvel books in years.

[krighton]

don't really care for the artwork in Hawkeye, almost didn't pick up the 1st issue because of it.

[gaz973]

Yeah, I'm getting Hawkeye but the artwork is bringing it down for me. It just doesn't appeal to me but I'll still be buying it just for the storytelling alone.

I love the artwork. I think it fits the mood of the book very well.
