Finally a story that does not play into the absurd stupidity of managing a grand scale universe like marvel comics and fits into it nearly perfectly without making you feel like an idiot for following story lines that go nowhere.

There was one panel that killed the pace near the end for me but that aside, takes a concept done 10000 times before such as the end of times and make it something more than "Everyone dies lol".

If you like a good steak at medium rare and taste it carefully this is your comic

Thor teams up with Galactus to stop the apocalypse, it’s pretty great but a little short.

Donny Cates just loves Metal. That’s what he’s going for here. But I don’t know if he achieves it. The art is beautiful, but the story lifeless. Worse, it’s slow as heck. Give me an issue where more than one thing happens, instead of churning pages of Thor fighting abstract forces. Thor is low fantasy. He isn’t Metal.

Me ha gustado muchísimo. Llevaba sin leer cómics de Thor desde que finalizó la etapa de Jane Foster y cambiaron de dibujante (después de Russel Dauterman el cambio a Mike Del Mundo fue demasiado fuerte para mí y dejé de coleccionarlos).

Hace poco me enteré de que Thor ahora estaba en una nueva etapa y decidí darle una nueva oportunidad. Menos mal que lo hice. No conocía al dibujante ni al guionista, pero me han gustado mucho ambos.

Tal vez sea porque me he saltado unos números, pero ha sido un cómic lleno de sorpresas, con muchísimo impacto visual, diálogos muy buenos y una trama que me deja necesitando saber más.

En general siempre me dan mucha curiosidad los cómics donde Thor es Rey porque esto le genera muchos conflictos internos, eso sumado a todo el tema de Galactus hace que tenga muchas ganas de saber cómo se va a ir desarrollando este arco argumental.

En definitiva, me ha gustado muchísimo, estoy encantada. Solo he leído este cómic y ya sospecho que este se va a convertir en uno de mis arcos argumentales favoritos del personaje.

Echaba mucho de menos a Thor. Gracias por esta maravilla.
