I really hope the rest of the run stays this good. I preferred volume 1 but volume delivers some incredible writing. the Roxxon Thor stuff was brilliant and hilarious while the over arching Utgard stuff has me really curious as to where this goes. 
Honestly fantastic and a must read for any Thor fan

I’m really enjoying how properly *out there* Ewing is going with this. It’s a very meta comic, poking fun at the comics industry with playful satire that also has serious teeth when it wants to leave a mark. Some of it does feel a little heavy-handed, but it works, especially since Ewing’s delivery throughout this run has been very arch. I’m hoping the various threads and tones he’s using come together eventually, but even if they don’t, I’m down for the ride if it can keep up this level of higher-concept comic book-ing.
