When I was kid in a small town in the ’70s long before I’d heard of comic book stores, and the idea that I would one day be able to order collections of comics via a computer and have it delivered to my doorstep would have seemed like something from a sci-fi story, my only steady source of superhero goodness was at my local grocery store. The problem was that the store only sold Marvel comics as a 3-pack sealed in a plastic bag. I was allowed to get one of these packs a week. (I think they sold for 99 cents. Compare that to today‘s prices and weep, my fellow comic nerds.)
I got a lot of great stuff this way, including the first Daredevil that Frank Miller drew. The downside was that the two outer issues would be something like Spider-Man or Captain America, you could never tell what the one in the middle would be. It was almost always a dud, at least for my taste. I’m pretty sure that the lower selling books were getting hidden between two more popular books.
My bitterest disappointment always came when there was a Thor as that third comic. It was like eating an Oreo but having crap in in the middle instead of a cream center. I had no interest in stories about gods fighting on rainbow bridges or whatever the hell they were supposed to be doing. Through the years, Thor remained one of my least favorite heroes.
But I actually enjoyed the movie version that came out earlier this year, and I’m completely geeking out for Joss Whedon’s upcoming Avengers movie that Thor will be a part of so it seemed like a good time to give it another try. This collection where J. Michel Straczynski brought the ole thunder god back to the Marvel universe after an absence seemed like a good place to start.
JMS has Thor reuniting with his old human persona Doctor Donald Blake and returning to Earth. The first order of business is rebuilding Asgard in the middle of Oklahoma. Which causes a few zoning issues with the locals as well as some diplomatic problems with the U.S. government. Then Thor sets out to locate the other Norse legends who have been trapped in their own human forms.
One of my favorite parts concerns a meeting with Iron Man. This occurs at the height of Marvel’s Civil War when Tony Stark as being kind of an a-hole. When he tries to play the role of the Big Cheese, Thor gives him a hard lesson in the difference between a god and a rich dude in a metal suit.
Good, fun stuff that has me looking forward to the rest of this series.

Ok, I'm a little surprised that I liked this as much as I did, because...well, it's Thor. Now, I've always liked him in the Avengers, but I wasn't sure how well that would translate into his own comic (for me, anyway). I mean, he wears a helmet with wings on it, for God's sake. Not teeny-tiny wings, either. Huge I-Believe-I-Can-Fly wings. Wings. On. His. Helmet. Alright, I'm getting off the subject.
The story line was actually really good! I'm sure I didn't catch every subtle reference in the story, because (as I mentioned before) I am not well versed in this particular character. However, even though this isn't an Origin story, it is a Starting-Over story, so it's easy enough to follow that you don't need to be an expert in Thor to get the gist of it. (And really, how many of us are experts when it comes to Thor?)
Side note: I still don't know how in the world they plan on selling Thor to the general public when this movie comes out. Pssst! Ix-nay on the ings-way, Hollywood!

3.5 stars
Although it won't supplant Thor, The Mighty Avenger: Complete Collection by Langridge / Samnee (much recommended - I really loved that book!) as my favorite tome featuring the Son of Odin, Straczynski's Thor, Vol. 1 certainly had its moments. Between the numerous action scenes and the gentle humor of Thor moving the kingdom of Asgard to America's heartland, there was a great moment in the exact middle of the volume. Dr. Don Blake (Thor's human alter ego) is participating in a noble Doctors Without Borders mission in the wilds of Africa when the refugee camp is viciously attacked by guerrillas. He transforms into Thor and then literally "calls down the thunder" (to quote Kurt Russell as Wyatt Earp in Tombstone), and is also assisted by three stalwart but modest soldiers-for-hire who are providing security for said camp. What happens next to the trio - in response to Thor admiring their bravery in the face of unenviable odds - is my favorite scene in the book.

Okay so here we go. Another Thor first volume. This time I went back, past Jason Aaron to J. Michael Stacynski run and...well it's actually pretty fun!
Thor has returned to earth after being in the void for so long. His human like vessle (I'm a bit confused by this Blake stuff myself. Sorry, not big into Thor) and so he returns. However, coming back to earth he sees that Asgard is no more and all his people are gone. So he slowly begins to awaken his friends in various places around the world to bring them back and restore Asgard. On top of that Tony decides to pay his buddy a visit but this is after Civil War. Yes, the same Civil War Thor build a robot like Thor to kill people. Yeah...shit is about to go down.
Good: The thor vs iron-man issue, or should say, Thor smacking Iron-man down issue, is great. Pure emotion, awesome effects, epic as fuck, and Thor comes across as a mighty god. I also enjoyed him picking up the pieces of his life and trying to restore it all.
Bad: The ending was kind of getting boring (Until last two pages) and Loki coming back as a woman, while cool, was kind of just why? Like, we know Loki will betray again so why the fuck does Thor keep trying him?
Overall this is a really solid volume. It didn't blow me away or anything but I had a lot of fun reading it and will give the rest of this run a read for sure. A 3.5 out of 5.

This was SO GOOD!
After Ragnarok, the Norse Gods/Asgardians are scattered in mortal bodies on Earth and its about Thor going there and rescuing his people and getting ahold of his new lease on life. He settles in Oklahoma and makes peace with Donald Blake and there is a beast moment where he fights Iron Man and that one is so cool, the way he just up and shoots him and shows him his place and then Heimdall and Warriors 3 and a big twist with Loki and the ending wow!
This volume was really cool and shows Thor as the King of the Asgardians trying to save his people and go in new ways and he has to rescue everyone even people he doesn't want to and face off against Destroyer, great reveal with Loki and finding the love of his life while enemies old and new are making their own plans in the background. Bust most importantly its the art that is spectacular and is just a marvel to look at. Each Panel is so well drawn and shows the hardwork and elevates the writing and the story at large and there are so many cool moments with Thor wow.
And the big face off with Iron Man is an inspired moment showing the difference between a God and man. A must read for sure.

Straczynski and Coipel created something good here. You can really understand that Thor is a God and not just any superhero, something that not all the Thor arcs do very well.

Πρώτη επαφή με τον... χάρτινο Θορ και δηλώνω πολύ ευχαριστημένος. Η ιστορία αρχίζει κάπως παράξενα και με έντονα μυστικιστικά στοιχεία, όμως στη συνέχεια όλα αρχίζουν να βγάζουν νόημα και τότε αρχίζει το καλό. Το όλο κόνσεπτ της ιστορίας είναι αρκετά ώριμο και ιντριγκαδόρικο, η δράση χορταστική και η ατμόσφαιρα εξαιρετική. Όσον αφορά το σχέδιο, είναι πραγματικά πολύ καλό, δυναμικό και ζωντανό, με απολαυστικά κινηματογραφικά πλάνα και πολύ ωραία σκηνικά. Η αλήθεια είναι ότι δεν έχω εντρυφήσει και ιδιαίτερα στον Θορ και το σύμπαν του, όμως η συγκεκριμένη ιστορία με ιντρίγκαρε για τα καλά. Σίγουρα δεν θα με χάλαγε να διάβαζα τυχόν επόμενους τόμους της σειράς.

A great enjoyable book. Great story and artwork. I am not a big Thor fan, but Michael Straczynski is one of my favourite comic writers, so when I saw this on offer I though I would give it a try. I am very glad that I did.
Thor died breaking the cycle of Ragnarok. However with the spell broken Thor's spirit is back by his human anchor and former host. Thor has changed, the human world has changed, even people he thought allies have changed and waged a Civil War. Thor must find his new role, and his people who have been scattered and hidden.
This is great storytelling and the artwork is an excellent compliment to the story. I might be converted as a Thor fan. The book finishes with a varient cover gallery.

I was mildly entertained until about halfway into this collection, where it picked up when Thor confronts Ironman. Call me shallow, but I mostly know these guys through the recent movies and I dig Robert Downey Jr.
Thor's outfit is the hardest to get used to. I know, it's the original one, but I have Chris Hemsworth stuck on my brain, without the dorky helmet.
So, comic... I like the vibrant colours and the artwork in general. The story, as mentioned, is mildly entertaining. The plot is ok, but not something terribly intricate or exciting. My interest picked up with book 3, when Ironman is introduced into the storyline. My favourite part was the epilogue.
Recommended to readers with prior knowledge of Marvel comics and Thor. I would read another copy, if I got my hands on it cheaply.

In five years of catching up on all the glories if the Marvel universe, I've paid no attention whatsoever to Thor or Straczynski. Much to my chagrin, this is a great story - a clever and believable way to reboot the ancient and crufty Thor/Marvel mythology, a well as a very enjoyable and rewarding read. Some very funny moments in the writing and the art. Oh yes, the art. Not the hyper-realistic stuff of the most epic Captain America, but the slightly exaggerated approach is very well executed, and quite well fleshed-out in most places. A great style for this larger-than-life tale.
If this is the calibre of work Straczynski is capable of, then I'll be reading all the stuff he's poured out the last few years.

Thor has returned to life after the fall of Asgard because of Ragnorak and he intends to defend the Earth while restoring Asgard.
It seems the world wasn't done with Thor after all and he's returned to set things right as best as he can. First off he has a discussion with Tony Stark regarding using his DNA to clone him.
The God of Thunder made sure his point got across.
Personally I find Thor bland and because of that I wasn't particularly into reading his return. It's not bad, but not really something I'd normally choose to spend my time on.

I love this. These 6 issues of Thor are amazing. The art by Coipel is something else and JMS manages to bring Thor back in to the modern MU that makes sense and is in keeping with the current continuity. A lot of what's here made it into the first Thor film, and it's easy to see why. Damn good comics.

Стилът на Оливие Куапел определено успя да ме впечатли. Сценаристът Джей Майкъл Стразински, чиято работа харесах още в първата графична новела от колекцията - Невероятния Спайдър-мен: Завръщане към корените - се е опитал да вкара дълбочина в образа на героя, измъчван от противоречия и разпънат на кръст между човешката и божествената си същност... Леко се оплетох към края, но загатнатото продължение би трябвало да внесе яснота.

A second super solid Thor series (along with God of Thunder by Jason Aaron). Fun with very interesting possibilities on story direction.

Том 6 на „Върховната колекция графични романи MARVEL” вече е на пазара. Сякаш поредицата стартира вчера, а вече една десета от нея е налице (а от картинката по гръбчетата вече към нас зловещо ръмжи Хълк). Този път изданието е посветено на Тор – богът на гръмотевиците, и първите шест броя на поредицата му от 2007 година. Също така, се връщаме отново към Джей Майкъл Стразински – създател на популярната научно-фантастична поредица „Вавилон 5“, който беше автор и на първия том от колекцията – „Невероятния Спайдър-мен: Завръщане към корените“. „Тор: Прероден“ започва малко нестандартно. В следствие на настъпването на Рагнарок, цял Асгард, заедно с населяващите го божества и воини, е затрит. Тор се скита изгубен в нищото, докато неговата земна самоличност – д-р Доналд Блейк, не го убеждава, че докато хората помнят боговете, този спомен е достатъчен боговете да ги има. А има ли богове, има и Асгард. Прочетете ревюто на „Книжни Криле”: https://knijnikrile.wordpress.com/202...

When it comes to the Marvel Superheroes I am far more '70's & '80's orientated and to be honest Thor did not figure on my radar. However my oldest daughter pushed me in seeing both Thor movies and I must say that I kind of enjoyed both of them and found them palatable.
Thor in this comic, bought by me for the daughter in question, tickled my interest and I kind of took it upon my self to read it. Thor and Asgard have fallen after Ragnarok and are no longer in existence. And as anything in MARVEL lands we know how long that takes. So Thor reawakens and rebuilds Asgard somewhere in the middle of nowhere and sets out to find his fallen comrades in arms and to rebirth a whole lot of Asgardians. There is a brief intermezzo with Iron man who gets his behind whooped, which my daughter kinda liked as she belongs to team Captain America [Something to do with the civil war between the Marvel Superhero's]. Anyhow he scares the living daylights out of Iron man aka Tony Stark and tells him to leave him out of his petty conflict, which Stark then takes for a given.
Thor is still seeking out his love Lady Sif when he encounters his enemies Loki and the Destroyer. When the comic ends I an not sure what happens of has happened but Asgard is now situated on earth and the gods seen to stay.
I guess you have to be more than a fan of this character to know what is going on. I prefer the movies easily and leave reading further Solo Thor comic books to the die hard fans.

Wow.
So that's why Asgard ended up floating above Oklahoma?
Love it, love the context, love Donald Blake being an actual person, Thor a different, and the explanation for what's happened since Ragnarok. The art is solid, and I really enjoyed the storytelling.
Best part? Thor kicking the ever loving shit out of Iron Man and daring him to come at him again.
Then the reveals of Heimdall, the Warriors Three, and of course...Loki and the Destroyer.
So,jazzed for this to continue.

Puntaje: 4.2 Estrellas.
Honestamente no esperaba leer otra historia de Thor en lo que quedaba del 2023, pero este tomo se ha cruzado en mi camino y decidí darle una oportunidad. Primero que todo, me alegro de haber leído esta historia después de haber leído el tomo de Thor de la colección de Los Héroes Más Poderosos de Marvel, pues esto sucede después de los hechos del Ragnarok, y hace muchas referencias a este suceso.
En “Thor: Renacido”, Marvel inicia una nueva etapa en los cómics de Thor, regresando a su alter ego, el Dr. Don Blake, quien trae a este mítico personaje de regreso a la realidad luego de haberse cumplido el oscuro e inevitable ciclo del Ragnarok.
Me ha gustado la idea de Thor instalándose en este pueblo del midwest de los Estados Unidos. Un lugar alejado de todo tipo de problemas intergalácticos y de talla mundial, perfecto para reconstruir Asgard. Me reí mucho viendo la interacción de los personajes nórdicos con las personas que habitan en este lugar.
Un elemento muy positivo de este cómic es el humor que maneja el autor durante los diálogos y las diferentes escenas de la novela gráfica. Pues más allá de las interacciones entre ambos mundos, esta historia deja la puerta abierta a toda una nueva serie de Thor en donde veremos las implicaciones que tiene un encuentro de culturas de este nivel.
He quedado con ganas de explorar un poco más esta serie de Thor. Quiero buscar los siguientes volúmenes para seguir con la historia, pues me ha gustado ese detalle de humor que conlleva y la trama que se iba armando en sus páginas. Recomiendo este tomo a todo el que esté interesado en leer historias de Thor. Eso sí, procuren haber leído el Ragnarok antes, pues disfrutarán mucho más de esta historia y entenderán las referencias que se encuentran por aquí.

I was never the cool kid who read all the comic books, I have read a few as a kid, but my knowledge of all things super heroes is mostly based on my love of the super hero movies and internet trivia. I was obsessed with the DC movies of Michael Keaton days and of course Christian Bale was a nice homage, but then DC just started making shitty movies and no body ever talk to me about Ben Affleck ever ugh.
But thank God for Marvel, I was obsessed with Xmen franchise and never thought I would care about other MCU movies half as much but surprisingly I love them, I love Thor partially because of Chris Hemsworth I mean. I don't know much about Thor comic books and hadn't heard really good things so I wasn't a lot but this comic book was a pleasant surprise, the story line was easy to follow even though I have watched Ragnarok and as this comic was supposed to follow the events of Ragnarok, my mind kept trying to link the two.

A deeply impressive reboot. Or rebirth, more appropriately. Thor, and all the Asgardians, were really, truly, legitimately dead in the Marvel U. How to bring them back? Huge props to JMS for how he does handle it. No take backs, no cheap tricks, and no easy routes. The rebirth of the Asgardians is a long, sometimes painful process. It rings true, and though I'm sure the (then still in pre-production) Thor movie helped convince Marvel to bring the god of thunder back, it reads as more than just an eventual movie tie-in.
For one, there's the fabulous notion of Thor recreating Asgard as a city floating eight feet over Oklahoma. Aside from just being a brilliant notion, JMS follows through with some of the more practical concerns of a mythical city hanging over a small town. Like sanitation, for example.
I have to say that the best scene was Thor bringing Iron Man to task for some of his actions during Civil War (seemingly still ongoing at the time). Namely, passing off a Thor clone as himself. Yeah, that'll put a ding in a friendship. The ensuing smackdown is epic, and immensely satisfying to read for someone who hated Civil War. Also, it seems Doom will somehow get tangled up in all of this, and I couldn't be happier.

This is a pretty good story! This story comes from J. Michael Straczynski, who wrote Superman Earth One and also the script for the first Thor Movie. I'll tell you from the beginning this story shocked even me, more as in i didn't know Asgardians could do that! The basic plot is Thor is resurrecting all the Asgardians that fell from a previous battle, and hes just trying to restart Asgard, i won't spoil much but this is a very good book, beautiful artwork, great story and a great jumping point for new Thor Fans.

I did a review on this forever ago but for some reason I don't know why it went away. But 3 out of 5. Really entertaining though lots of build up can feel a bit slow. Art is fantastic though.

Thor ist einer meiner persönlichen Lieblinge im Marvel-Universum. Als Gott des Donners ist er eine der mächtigsten Figuren dort - und als "Besucher" der Gegenwart des Planeten so fremd wie ein Alien, das die Erde vor Urzeiten durch ein Fernrohr beobachtet hat und nun erstaunt ist, dass zwischen seinem Aufbruch dorthin und der Ankunft die Entwicklung unserer Spezies nicht halt gemacht hat.
Dieser Sammelband ist nur im Zusammenhang mit dem zu verstehen, was in den Comics während des Civil-War passiert ist. Er eignet sich nicht für das schnelle Eintauchen in das Marvel-Universum, das selbst für jene, die es permanent verfolgen, schon eine Zumutung an Größe ist.
Aber auch, wenn ich Civil War schon vor einiger Zeit gelesen habe - ich mochte den kurzen Auslug in Thors Welt, unmittelbar nach der Urkatastrophe.
