This past month there hast really been to much i can really say I have loved and had me on the edge of my seat as i read it with the exception of a few books(Ultimate Cap and Green Lantern) although the coming weeks seem to be promising. With that being said i think its a good week to go back and reread some Stephanie Brown as Batgirl a maybe even some Robin and Cassandra Cain Batgirl to get my full fix of Steph. Now i will stop myself before i start rambling on about how much i love her character that is all for now. (oh and Thor first Thunder is also on todays agenda looks promising)
So I have just got done reading the Thor: For Asgard mini series under the Marvel Knights imprint and i guess saying i have mixed feelings about it would make the most sense. Now I believe the overall plot was pretty interesting although not anything that hasn't been done before but solid none the less. I thought Character development was extremely good and made me feel that i could get a good grasp of the characters personalities even if i hadn't actually read many Thor books before. Now my main problem with this story arc comes from the pacing it feels as if they tried to crunch a lot of ideas into not enough issues. For some reason what really sticks out in my mind about this book is the scene where Undar reads the scroll i feel it was very forced in the way it came about, coincidentally Thor and Brunnhilde were over heard talking about the event that transpired in Valhalla i don't feel the current ruler of Asgard would be so careless with news as import as that. Then on top of that Undar just happened to be stationed there so they could try to explain the timing of it. Anyway that one part just really stuck out as forced now don't get me wrong i did enjoy the mini-series as a whole i just wouldn't recommend it to anyone that has limited time to read comics because well there is just so much better stuff out there.
So about to read a few of the new thor mini-series For Asgard and First Thunder hear they are pretty solid books so i will be writing some reviews and prob a video review of them on my channel :) until then.... stay classy
