Old Man Thor
This book is awesome! I think the reason Wolverine and the X-Men is suffering, is because Jason Aaron is putting all of his resources into this book. That's not a bad thing.
This book spans three time lines, and we spend more time in some than others.
In the future time line, Thor is king, but not in good shape. He is missing an arm and is begging to die. There is a lot of story we don't have yet for this old Thor, and hopefully we can get it. Of the three time lines, I think this is the most interesting. I wouldn't mind an entire book based on this version.
The past Thor gets a few panels, and the current Thor gets most of the book. While in the cave to hunt Gorr, The God Butcher, he runs into Shdrak who claims to be the God of Wine and Waterfalls. I say claim because later on he claims to be the God of songs and summersaults. Could be be lying and is something more sinister? Could I be reading too much into this? (Probably)
Anyway the Gorr, is shown to be sadistic (and looks kind of like Voldemort) . Shdrak has four eyes, and the God Butcher cut off all of his eyelids so he wouldn't mess any of his mayhem.
There is a showdown at the Asgard library with the black berserkers, and that leads to a big shocking cliffhanger ending.
Thor is going to have a showdown with Gorr soon, but I hope they stretch it out more. But then again this is Marvel, everything has to fit into a five issue story to fit in a trade. Still so far this is has been a great tale.
