By the Bristling Beard of Odin! The Thor Thread - Part 1

I'm saying in a month loki's cave of awesome is better than asgard. It already has leah and evil hell puppy thori so in a way it already kinda is, once volstagg moves in with the kids you've got sitcom gold right there my friend.

LOL! Yeah, I could just see that, with Volstagg! (Imagines hel-puppy hanging off his helmet-streamers.)

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I love Leah almost as much as I love Kid Loki. Gillen needs to give us an issue of the two of them just bickering with each other nonstop while casually handling some ridiculous cosmic threat.

 

[Gamma Burst]

That would awesome, Corp.

 

[plushbug]

I'd buy it!

I'm waiting for him to get her a smartphone.

Nice Asgardia is in the air once more. I really don't care about the look seeing as each Asgard seems to refelct it's ruler. I was more tired of Asgard being on the ground in ruin for so long.

 

[plushbug]

Totally. Even allowing for it being a shorter universe "real time" post-Siege, than our ~2 years as readers...way past time for these people not to be living in a ruin.

wow, this thread has really jumped the shark

 

[Gamma Burst]

How so?

 

[Vartha]

heh probably cuz we mostly in the Avengers threads these days, or corpy being busy with school, or me having limited access to internet. lol

 

[Gamma Burst]

Btw, I really liked Mighty Thor #10! Some great moments there.
Fraction improved a lot with these post FI issues, imo.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Man, was this week's issue ever mostly pretty good.

Seriously though, good overall. Only a couple of things bugged me this time around, so Fraction's definitely improving. Can't say the same for Ferry, whose art continues to be absolutely, 100% wrong for this series, though.

 

[Gamma Burst]

Isn't Pepe Larraz the artist for this issue?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

So he is. His art is virtually identical to Ferry's, though, so it still doesn't look right on Thor.

Yeah, both don't look quite right for the book even though the art is pretty.

Btw, great moment where

Spoiler

Silver Surfer tried to lift Mjolnir, using the power cosmic, and couldn't move the damn thing!

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, I liked that part.

 

[Splat]

Agreed on all points about today's issue guys, this is definitely my favorite arc that Fraction has written. Do we know who the artist is after this arc? I'd love to see Copiel return.

 

[Gamma Burst]

I believe Pepe Larraz will be the artist for the next issues, at least while Coipel is on Avengers vs X-Men crossover. After that, maybe he'll do more issues of Mighty Thor, I hope.

 

[Splat]

I hope so, if not him I'd love to see Stuart Immomen come on for an arc. His Thor and Asgardians looked great in Fear Itself.

Agreed. Or Adam Kubert, whose work on FI #7.2:Thor was outstanding, imo.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I'd kill to see Alan Davis do another run. Barring him, maybe someone like Doug Braithwaite or Mitch Breitweiser. Someone with kind of a blocky style who tends to make everyone look a little nobler to me. Oooh, or Lee Weeks. God, I'd love to see Weeks draw The Mighty Thor. Or any comic at this point, to be honest. Dude's been a ghost for the past few years.

Definitely, I love his art as well.

for Davis and Weeks: two of my favourite artists ever.
Well, at least, Mitch and Doug have been working on JIM, along with Rich Elson, who's equally good, imo.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

True. It seems like they'd be better suited to Thor while Ferry and Larraz's more cartoony styles would be better for Kid Loki in JiM. But maybe that's just me.
