Thor by Jason Aaron: The Complete Collection Vol. 1

My product came just as I expected in perfect condition and I am quite enjoying the read Jason Aaron really done Thor a justice with his run can't wait to pick up the rest

My god, this book is so good. The writing and artwork is perfect and the God Butcher is a character to give kids nightmares.

Fantastic art and story....10/10.

This Complete Collection includes the first 3 trades of Jason Aarons iconic Thor run. The stories included are 'The God Buthcer', 'The God Bomb' and 'The Accursed'.The God Butcher storyline is an instant classic, pitting Thor from the past, present and future against the Gorr the God Butcher. This story is epic. with Esad Ribic complimenting it with his unique art style. This story is a must read for any Thor fan, even for those who did not enjoy the latest movie which VERY loosely adapts this storyline.The Accursed is more of a back to basics storyline centering around Malekith the Accursed. However, this is quintessential to the whole run as it can be seen as the 'Prologue' to War of the Realms. Altogether a fun storyline but not as amazing as the first 12 issues.Altogether this item is highly recommended. It is the first of five Complete Collections which have all been released now. However, Marvel has now released 2 omnibus containing this epic run if that is more of your style.

The God butcher storyline and art is great. The villain is compelling and the scale epic. The second story arc is a big drop in quality though and feels more rushed in terms of story and art. I know some marvel comics have an 18 issues per year schedule as Ron Harvey's art is usually stronger. I also wonder if the author initially only had the God butcher arc in mind and was asked to do more but didn't have anything fleshed out. It may be things pick up as the author settles into a longer run. The second arc just felt like poor Lord off the rings tribute or wheel of time.

I thought this would be very good, but the story line jumps all over the place and I mean every couple of pages, no consistent flow, so this ruins any sort of story, the artwork is ok, but feel very much let down. If you like a jumbled time traveling story then you might like it, but I find time travel ones just ruin things.

Thor fights the God-Butcher and Malekith the dark elf. It's okay, but if I hadn't already bought the whole series, I wouldn't be buying it now.
