The Mighty Thor returns! Thor is back in his own comic book starting over with #1. Thor has been MIA for a while because of the whole dying and Ragnarok (End of All Things) happenings. Now Thor is back, but he's not alone. Dr. Blake is back as well. You see, Dr. Blake was banished to the void by an Odinspell. When Thor finds himself in the void he meets Dr. Blake and they have an understanding. And since it is for mortals to say whether the gods exist or not, Thor has returned.
Overall it was a good first issue. Thor's new duds are not far removed from his original ones and it's nice to see the whole Dr. Blake thing returning for a spell. The art by Olivier Coipel is perfect and his Thor looks very Norse. J. Michael Straczynski is writing and he did a bang up job as well. I feel that Mr. S. has a hit or miss quality about him and wasn't fond of his treatment of Spider-man, big fan of Babylon 5 though.
Action Comics #851 came out as well which continues the Richard Donner plotted Superman story. I am really digging it but it seems like the last part of this story came out at least a month ago. What's the deal? I may just have to wait for the inevitable hardback collection.
Oh yeah, for those wondering, it's a girl.
