This week on View from the Gutters, our topic work is??Thor: God of Thunder, Vol. 1 & 2, by Jason Aaron and??Esad Ribic. Collecting the first two arcs of the Marvel NOW relaunch of Thor, this series takes a closer look at Thor not purely as a hero, but as a god. Thor follows a mysterious trail of dead gods across time and space, learning about and confronting??the mysterious godbutcher across three different times.
Beautifully illustrated by Esad Ribic,??God of Thunder??is one of the best Marvel NOW relaunches (a crowded field, to say the least). It addresses an element of Thor which has been long neglected, and leaves nothing on the field when it comes to showing the spectacle and grandeur of the god of thunder unleashed.
