I have realized that Thor has kind of gotten screwed over during the last decade. His "death" after Ragnarok meant that we had to go three years without any appearances from him. And when he does come back, its in an awesome series by JMS that ultimately ended up unfinished because JMS did not want to use Thor in Seige, a huge event that marvel was trying to do at the time. So after some decent stories with Gillen and Matt Fraction, we get amazing stories from Jason Aaron like the god butcher. But soon after, Thor is getting destroyed again. He loses his hammer, loses his arm, becomes unworthy, has someone else going around as the new "Thor", and then dies. The worst part about all of this is that we have no idea why all of this has happened. Jason Aaron has given us no resolution to this story, and we are being left in the dark. We won't get any answers until the end of secret wars, and even then we still don't know how long we have to wait. They have done damage to Thor and his character without giving any explanation, and it all feels like it was done for no reason. Its like they just don't care anymore.
When I look at Thor from a year ago and Thor right now, its disappointing.
Just as something good happens with Thor (His power level during Ragnarok, JMS series, God Butcher arc), marvel does something to screw it up.
