Gorr is terror inducing
The writers did a great job of making Thor vulnerable. Even more, the way they write Gorr is terrifying and the art matches.

Reread this in preparation for the new movie. Easily my favorite Thor story. Jason Aaron’s long and legendary run starts off so strong that I’m unsure if it ever quite reached the heights of this first arc again. That may be in part due to Esad Ribic, who brings an unparalleled grandeur to each story he touches.

What can you say about a practical masterpiece? The three time-line approach to the story is a unique approach that works well with an ancient character such as Thor. I've already read some of the Foster run and am finally catching up.

This Thor comic blew me away.
Honestly I'm not a huge fan of the Avengers as everyone else kinda seems to be. I did not care for the Thor movie at all.
BUT this comic is amazing. You don't need any prior knowledge of Thor you can go in and read the comic and not be completely confused by anything.
Like I really wish the Thor movie could have be based off of this comic book.
What really makes Thor a great comic is the villain The God Butcher he really steals the show. Because in my mind I feel people don't know what to do with Thor because he is so over-powered.
So the story is that a shadowing figure named The God Butcher has been killing the gods and Thor has to find him and fight him.
That's the basic description but it has time travel and it's so cool how they do it. There are three Thors the young Thor, Avengers Thor, and old Thor and how they deal with The God Butcher.
The art is beautiful I really like the colors and it's very subtle not in your face kind of art.
But Jason Aaron is amazing and I'm going to try check out everything he has written.

I read it a year or two after the original run. I thought it was brilliant at the time!! I recall being totally blown away by Esad Ribić's dynamic artwork.
