"ENCHANTED" PART 3 (OF 3) Three's a crowd as Sif, Amora and Brunnhilda all compete for Thor's affections. But when Amora decides to play dirty, the gloves come off!
With Loki’s help, Amora has placed Thor under her love spell. While Sif may be heartbroken by the role she played in it all, she might be able to make things right with the help of an unexpected ally.
This story wraps up here in a pretty expected fashion. It’s a little bit forced overall, but I’m happy to see it over, quite honestly. Loki does take a page or two to gloat over his manipulation of Sif and there is a fun little swords versus sorcery battle, but that’s pretty one-sided. I enjoyed a scene late in the story where Thor’s mother, Frigga, has a quiet conversation with Sif about love and magic.
Again, if this were a side story that played out over several issues alongside something else I would have been more accepting of it, but as a main story for three issues it was a little long and a bit insipid. Tocchini’s art provided the greatest motivation for moving for moving through the issues.
Loki revives Sif telling her it was him who betrayed her. Sif attacks Amora and takes her to the ground. Before she can do any real damage Thor drags her off and takes Amora's side. Sif pretends that the defeat doesn't hurt her and walks off. Brunnhilda finds Sif later and they team up to try and break the spell on Thor. They battle Amora and Loki and Brunnhilda breaks the mirror causing the spell to be broken. Thor upset that both Amora and Sif would/ did use the mirror on him walks away. Frigga finds Sif a few days later and tells her that any kiss given under a spell is not a real kiss and is forgotten when the spell is broken. Sif tells Thor to meet her for an apology. He does and after she says sorry she kisses him and they embrace.

"Love is an emotion even the most experiences warriors are forced to yield to. It makes victims of us all." I just might be liking Burnnhilda a little more after this issue.
In any case, this one was a good one. Although there was nothing but jealousy revolving around, I still liked it.
The first time I had heard of Amora was back in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and over there, she had an even larger impact on humans. Now I'm not sure she tackled with the Asgardians the same way but well, it was all a really good end for her. I liked how she was sort of destroyed in her plan but I really hate how there was nothing more about her after all. But eh, maybe in any other comic then. xD
