The Siege of Asgard continues and kelda and Volstagg do their best to help. Asgardians under the leadership of Balder continue to fend off their opponents, but time is running out for the Asgardians. Loki reveals more detail about the attack and feels sorry for being a god of mischief. This issue was better than the last. There may be hope for a good Thor story after all. I like the parts with Loki and how he was able to reveal that Balder was selfish and jealous king. Visually, there were so many artists working on this issue that it did not matter. It was solid work nonetheless. I guess next issue will be the one where I decide if Thor is really worth it.
