Thor: God of Thunder #8 – Review

By: Jason Aaron (Writer), Esad Ribic (Artist), Ive Svorcina (Colorist)

The Story: Present and Future Thor sails the cosmos in order to bring the battle to Gorr as the young Thor from the past learn how the slaves of Gorr fare and what are his plans.

The Review: Praise to the bearded writer of greatness for his adventures of the god of thunder, even though he seems to be unable to even come close to this level on his other titles, be it the tale of the Mad Titan or the stories of young mutants in school. May Jason Aaron find in his own mind the way to make this title consistent and he shall have a follower to buy this sublime book of the mighty shelves of his local comic book shop.

*Ahem*

So yeah, another pretty great issue of Thor: God of Thunder has been released, featuring the continuing tale of the gods of thunder from three ears converging to fight the god butcher. In this issue, we see two plotlines as we see just how young Thor fares as he has been captured by Gorr and put into slavery. Right there, we get to see his impetuous and arrogant side as he tries to rebel against his captor, never minding for once what it might entail for the others. As we see three new female characters (whose identity I shall not spoil) go toward him as they try to calm him down. In a way to teach him humility and the error of his current ways, the three females shows just what happens when a divine being rebels, as it leads to a pretty powerful scene showing just how far along in his plans Gorr has gotten.
