Thor #5 (2014) has been added to your cart.
Articulating what happened in Thor #5 is difficult as it is setting the stage for getting down to the mystery of what the new Thor's identity is. #5 is the definition of a transitional issue, further emphasized by fill-in artist Jorge Molina. His interiors are serviceable, but the absence of regular artist Russell Dauterman is deeply felt. Aaron's work has been delightful thus far, but he falters with this non-event of an issue. This is not a bad comic. It at least reestablishes the ongoing mysteries (Nick Fury's whisper to Odinson, most notably), and has some clever moments, but it is not up to the standard set thus far feeling inconsequential throughout until the last turn of the page. The best part was the last page announcing Dauterman's return in #6!
