It's the beginning of the end of the world for the Gods of Asgard, and only Thor and his Avengers allies might be able to stave off that fate - but does the god of thunder even want to?

This is the start of a brand new era for Thor. After over six years of stories, Dan Jurgens has stepped aside. Many wondered if Oeming could fill Jurgens shoes and keep things to the high standards they've been at. Well, the answer is, so far yes! Things start out with a history lesson. A story many may have forgotten, but just like the One Ring, shouldn't have. From here things jump to present day……and then BOOM!!! The foundations of what we know are shaken to their core and we are left wondering if anything we once knew will ever be the same again!

Andrea Di'Vito is a name that will soon resonate throughout comicdom! He has stepped into the world of Norse legend and instantly weaved his spell of magnificence. The panel layout and framing of the prologue was the exact touch needed for the story. And Di Vito just carried on from there. The splash page really pronounced the magnitude of the situation and the effects of power and magic are all given that awe inspiring presence. Epting also delivers a cover that projects the urgency and power of the issue itself.
