I wish I had listened to the inner voice that told me to give up on this run of Thor a long time ago.The...everything. It just isn't for me.This is no offense to Jane and her fans, but I just don't like anything about her or this storyline. Every time she turned back into Jane, I just felt so damn depressed I almost wanted to barf.It's not badly written or anything, either. And I think it's fantastic that she's a strong woman in this role. I do.But there is literally nothing about this that I ca...

This volume I felt was rushed, spinning its wheels too. Everything happens quickly and is resolved quickly in the span of four issues.The generations issue is alright, cool to see a story with Odinson again.I like Jane as Thor though it should come to an end now, from what I hear the next volume is her final bow as Thor. And we will finally get to see the war of the realms that has been going on this entire time.

Well, we had a War Doctor so why not a War Thor?

WAR THOR TO THE RESCUE!!! Okay, seriously though, what a boost for this series after the last volume (which was meh). We get a new Thor. I know, I know, don't worry though this time it's a guy. Don't freak out. And with that being said we have a new Thor called War Thor, who basically goes around creating war for anyone who stands in his way. Once we get the background of him, and understand why he does what he does, it becomes one big ass brawl between War Thor and hell and then eventually Jane...

2.5 starsThe Ultimate Thor's hammer finally reaches somebody's hands and turns them into... The War Thor.After the previous volume, I was ready to drop Jason Aaron's Thor series because I was just not feeling it anymore. But then I found out that his story is coming to an end soon, and this fourth volume is supposed to be the penultimate one. Naturally, my inner completist couldn't resist. Unlike the previous The Asgard/Shi'ar War, this volume wasn't bad, but for a book that was supposed to set

3.5 stars

After sitting around for ages, someone finally picks up Ulitmate Thor's hammer and becomes the War Thor. War Thor's origin is gut wrenching. I really like what Aaron did with the character, even if he ultimately doesn't stick around very long. Valerio Schitti's art is solid, but does pale in comparison to Dauterman.

1/10 starsVery, very bad.This is getting unreadable at this point. Aaron's infatuation with the Thor proliferation/infestation has gone much too far for my liking, and this new War Thor is just a prime example of extremely shoddy and very cheap writing. The reason for his existence is basically "why not?" Also, the totally unnecessary, useless and redundant fights, because there needs to be a War of Thors. Seriously?! The same goes for the completely accidental, forgettable time travel bit at th...

Just... smegging... awesome.

We've been awaiting the arrival of the War Thor for a long time, and Aaron doesn't disappoint in his reveal of who and why the War Thor is, as part of a rather emotional story about the latest effects of the (already eternal) War of the Realms. We also get a great new Thor villain, with a full focus on the Queen of Cinders.Where this volume does disappoint is in the story of the War Thor, which has been been so foreshadowed, being such a quick one and done. It makes it feel like a bit of water t...

This was so good omg!So it starts with a tragedy that happens to Volstagg because of the fire demons and in that midst he becomes the war thor and we see how that happens and what the hammer does to him and his attacks on Muspelheim as he wants to destroy that realm and then enter Jane as she fights her new enemy, one-time friend and can she save him is the story of this volume. And also introduces Sinder, Queen of Muspelheim and further broadens the Dark council of Malekith. And also a generati...

Yet another rager of a Thor book. Does Jason Aaron ever get tired of writing like he’s a heavy metal guitar god? Like I almost tire of having to say the same thing every time I read another edition in the long history that is Aaron’s dalliance with Thor?Ultimate Thor’s HammerAxe is a great addition to the crazy chaos we’re enjoying, makes me super happy to see who it enables to become a pure testosterone form of their better selves. Well, maybe not happy exactly, but since it had to happen anywa...

[Read as single issues]The Odinson’s hammer, Mjolnir, is held within the grasp of Jane Foster, the new Thor. But a new hammer, the hammer of the Ultimate Thor, now resides in the ruins of Old Asgard, and this new hammer is about to be claimed. The War Of Realms rages on, but a new player is about to enter the game who knows all about rage. Tremble before the might of the War Thor.Nothing in Jason Aaron’s long run on Thor is by accident. His Thors mini-series during Secret Wars looked like it was...

Jason Aaron really knows how to turn on fan boys. He tells the origin of Mjolnir, then he brings in gladiator, a new Thor, mangog, Malekeith, apocalypse and then drops a massive bomb, like it was nothing, that Odin dated the Phoenix. Amazing.

Blood! Thunder! Fire! Uru! This is not the most subtle arc in Aaron's Thor but by Odin's beard does it deliver on spectacle. I was reading this on iPad Pro and issue #22 is just a non-stop treat. Schiti's art and the vivid colors (so much lava) really pop. The War Thor was the best kind of diversion before we go back to the War of the Realms for real.

A chapter by chapter outline of what happened in this trade collection that introduced yet another hammer wielder. #20 - The War Thor revealed! The War Thor, the new bearer of the alternate Mjolnir that survived the destruction of its universe, the one who will fight the War of Realms!I can't shake the feeling of the Doctor Who vibe; John Hurt's War Doctor, anyone? This Thor exists to fight a war and that is the reason the other Mjolnir called to its new bearer. (view spoiler)[It's Volstagg! (hi...

Again some parts that really feel like filler. Art is always very cool, but some of the plot sith War Thor feels like it wasnt that important to the main story arc. I think the next Vol is the last in the story so I'll prob read it when its out just to just to finish the story. Still very emotional with Janes battle

*Spoiler alert*Ok, it's another filler retarding the war of the realms once again.But, boy, was it intense!The fire goblins of some place ending in "heim" in its name slaughter elves refugees in the Moria or some other place where dwarves mine stuff. As a witness of this massacre good-natured Volstagg goes bonkers and becomes the War Thor thanks to the late Ultimate Thor's hammer. Craving for revenge he's intent on razing the place ending in "heim", civilians included. Not on regular Thor's watc...

Disappointing. Very much a weaker volume in the series, with some painfully bad dialogue. Still love the series but this is a step back for a moment at least.

This is one of the best Volstagg stories ever told.Epic shit man!!! One thing I love is when a villain does something really really shitty, and then they are righteously kicked to shit in a flurry of blinding rage. That’s probably why I love Marvel comics so much, come to think of it.The story moves fast. I feel like I just picked it up and then boom... it’s done.It’s a fine entry into this story. The War of the Realms grows.Unanswered questions:- What the hell is Odin Borson doing? Haven’t seen...
