I was wavering between 3 and 4 stars here, because there's a lot of good stuff that I really did like - I think this is my favourite of the Godbomb collection. I'm trying not to give spoilers, but I liked the way in which Gorr's bomb manifested itself (outside of the merely destructive). I liked that it ended on a quiet note, with Thor keeping a promise to a small believer. I liked that the gods found something to pray for, though of course their own prayers were entirely self-centred. I didn't like that the idea of the god-who-doubts seemed to be dropped, though I'm not surprised given the lack of focus on mirror images after Gorr lost an eye in the last issue. And I don't care at all about the shrinking of the bomb into a stupidly named sword that I hope (but don't believe) will never appear again, because the constant focus on weaponry does seem to get in the way of the types of story that I prefer.
