THOR #83: "RAGNAROK" pt. 3 (of 6)

Beset on all sides by treacherous foes from his past, the God of Thunder leads the tattered remnants of the forces of Asgard on a desperate quest, as the Realm Eternal burns...


This has been an exciting time for this book. Under Jurgens there were great epic stories, but now, in this arc we get the mythological aspects of Thor. Oeming has shown much, but still there were many questions that needed answers and in this issue many get touched upon. The narration can seem repetitive, but its not. It's like a thumb, without it nothing could get held. The latter half of the issue really stands out, as it's an exploration of Thor and where he needs to be. It's a Journey into Mystery!



The art is such a perfect fit for this story, it has a sombre powerful feel to it, which really reflects the pain and hardship that Thor and the Asgardian's have to suffer. This really resonates in the cover. Throughout the issue there are examples of great work from Divito, but some of the nicest work is towards the end. Firstly we get some really nice panels of Thor talking with.........I'll let you find that out for yourselves. But then there are some flashbacks that provide answers and these are great.
