Thor Returns

By far one of my favorite comics right now is the new new Thor series with story by J.Michael Straczynski and art by Olivier Coipel.

I just picked up issue number 3 today and just loved it. This new series is a fantastic way to be introduced to this classic character. I love when you can pick up a new title of an old character and not be required to have tons of previous knowledge in order to enjoy the book.

The story so far is simple yet interesting. Thor, the Norse god of thunder, was dead. As our all the Norse gods. And now Thor is back and has begun a search for the other gods who are lost among humanity. In this new issue he finds the first of the missing Asgardians... but not before confronting Iron Man. Normally this should have been a happy reunion between former Avengers and friends... but Thor is none too happy about the fact that Iron Man created a clone of Thor during the Civil War.

The art is stunning. Every page is beautiful. It's no surprise that issue 1 and 2 have been sold out everywhere and are hide to find. If you haven't been able to pick up these issues then let me strongly recommend that you grab the new Thor: Rebirth trade paperback which will be released on Oct 18th. You won't be disappointed!
