The flesh may be weak but the thunder is strong!
Ok I need the full volume now. So excited to see how it's gonna be adapted into the big screen!

I OBSESSED with Dr. Jane Foster as Thor. It's a great story that features not only her being a badass warrior, but also a human dealing with a very real problem.
And that ending! I can't wait to read more.

Fantastic concept and Jane Foster is such an interesting character here, faced with an impossible dilemma. Great start to a very promising series, I'm curious to see what happens with the Dark Elves (why couldn't the film villains be as interesting and devious as their comic counterparts?!).

The art in this one was particularly good, as were parts of the plot. I love the dichotomy of Thor/Jane and the two storylines running through. Loki was great.

This story is amazing! I love that we now know who Thor is and therefor can get her perspective. The mystery girl trope was getting a bit old (perhaps I just watched too much Doctor Who). But this is awesome. I like the slice of life parts as much as the epic stuff - as is often the case with Marvel superhero comics.
issue 2: great story and it's good to see Loki back. Darn he is drawn sexy (though not sexualized). read December 28th

I am not going to lie. When I heard Thor was being turned into a woman, I rolled my eyes. It is like Ghostbusters having an all female crew, not a bad idea but execution would be everything. I am not agaisnt Marvel rebooting their old heroes and adding some diversity, hell the push for female characters is what got me into reading comics this year! But again, it is all about execution and giving us a viable story instead of pleasing the masses. So I am not lying when I say The Mighty Thor is worthy.
I have not read any Thor comics, let's start with that. But this reboot helps you fill in gaps that might exist, like for example what happened to Thor? Is this in the same dimension? Answer: Yes, and Thor is off unto a far away land to lick his wounds. He is no longer worthy (something about Nick Fury whispering sweet nothings in his ear?) so Mjolnir has chosen a worthy champion in Jane Foster, who happens to be battling cancer at the moment. Jane takes on the responsibility of the Mighty Thor in order to save her world, and everybody else's, even though every time she picks up the hammer her cancer treatment regresses and her human shell gets worse. Questions such as "why doesn't she just use the hammer always?" are answered.
Asgard is in shambles, Odin has gone insane and even incarcerated his own wife. He is no longer the wise father, but the ruling tyrant. His brother is not helping much. Thor (male) is gone, and Odin is not happy about Mighty Thor taking his place. So things are bad in Asgard, as well as the Elvish world, something Thor comes to realize once dead light elves start falling from the stratosphere.
So expect lots of action, amazing art (like truly beautiful), and a great story line. I am captivated, and I plan on continuing this until the very end.
PS; Bonus? Loki!

Holy god I've got to get my hands on the rest of this run. Lady Thor, beautiful character designs (I love these versions of Loki and Malekith so much??) and a great story to be told. Bless up, Aaron and Dauterman. Bless up.

Every time I try to read superhero comics I care way more about the mundane human stuff than the superhero stuff. Like yeah, yeah, war of the realms, let's get back to how Jane's handling chemo.
