About the author
Jason Aaron
2,372 books1,684 followersJason Aaron grew up in a small town in Alabama. His cousin, Gustav Hasford, who wrote the semi-autobiographical novel The Short-Timers, on which the feature film Full Metal Jacket was based, was a large influence on Aaron. Aaron decided he wanted to write comics as a child, and though his father was skeptical when Aaron informed him of this aspiration, his mother took Aaron to drug stores, where he would purchase books from spinner racks, some of which he still owns today.
Aaron's career in comics began in 2001 when he won a Marvel Comics talent search contest with an eight-page Wolverine back-up story script. The story, which was published in Wolverine #175 (June 2002), gave him the opportunity to pitch subsequent ideas to editors.
In 2006, Aaron made a blind submission to DC/Vertigo, who published his first major work, the Vietnam War story The Other Side which was nominated for an Eisner Award for Best Miniseries, and which Aaron regards as the "second time" he broke into the industry.
Following this, Vertigo asked him to pitch other ideas, which led to the series Scalped, a creator-owned series set on the fictional Prairie Rose Indian Reservation and published by DC/Vertigo.
In 2007, Aaron wrote Ripclaw: Pilot Season for Top Cow Productions. Later that year, Marvel editor Axel Alonso, who was impressed by The Other Side and Scalped, hired Aaron to write issues of Wolverine, Black Panther and eventually, an extended run on Ghost Rider that began in April 2008. His continued work on Black Panther also included a tie-in to the company-wide crossover storyline along with a "Secret Invasion" with David Lapham in 2009.
In January 2008, he signed an exclusive contract with Marvel, though it would not affect his work on Scalped. Later that July, he wrote the Penguin issue of The Joker's Asylum.
After a 4-issue stint on Wolverine in 2007, Aaron returned to the character with the ongoing series Wolverine: Weapon X, launched to coincide with the feature film X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Aaron commented, "With Wolverine: Weapon X we'll be trying to mix things up like that from arc to arc, so the first arc is a typical sort of black ops story but the second arc will jump right into the middle of a completely different genre," In 2010, the series was relaunched once again as simply Wolverine. He followed this with his current run on Thor: God of Thunder.

This was an interesting volume to read. I have found that while the plot is really interesting in this it can get a bit confusing and take awhile to fully understand at least for me. I was a bit thrown by something that happened in this as I wasn't too sure about it but it made some sense near the end. Mostly I love watching these characters interact.
In particular, Captain Marvel had some pretty funny lines in this. So did Thor and I found I liked quite a few of the characterization. I'm interested to see how this story is going to play out as I am not 100% sure about the storyline. But I am having fun reading it and I think that's what is the most important.

I’ve totally enjoyed this story and really want to see more with Hulk and Thor, but the way this arc was resolved lacked in many ways. I’m not disappointed enough to rate it a 3, but this didn’t pay off to the readers the way it could have.

La race humaine est-elle la plaie de ce Monde? Ou son remède? Bonne question, mais quel désordre dans tout ça. Reste une bonne dose d’humour et des dessins légers mais qui cadrent bien avec le ton global: pas sérieux et sans profondeur.

This was fun! I'm looking forward to the next issue and finding out more about the Primeval Avengers, also I really wanna know what Loki's end game is! And the moment with Thor and Hulk was cute :)

Win For The Avengers
A Great win for the team bringing down the Celestials. I think this series is off to a great start.
