Odinson is suddenly unworthy and unable to wield Mjolnir. It lays stranded on the desolate surface of the Moon, as many fine warriors attempt to lift it, only one mysterious woman is able to do so. Delightfully framed as a mystery, these first issues of the Goddess of Thunder are a delight!

I couldn't find the individual issues on the database (which didn't surprise me really) so I figured I'd post all the stunning covers together.

This series was awesome. I loved the origin story of the new Goddess of Thunder, and the way it kept the suspense over her identity. It was full of action, laughs and feels. A brilliant set of stories.

Good news: after a little over 2 years away one of my best friends is moving back to the island!
Bad news: he wants his books back.

He's said theres no rush if I want to finish reading them first (which I do) but I've had 2 years to read them already so I'm gonna work through them now... 😅

LibrarianRyan 😁Oh that sounds so familar.

I too have had that book sitting on my too read pile. My copy is from a university library that kept extending due dates because of Covid. So I think I have had it for a least a year. I just got the notice yesterday that it is officially 😁 overdue on Friday.

I enjoyed this one a lot. More than I was expecting to. I‘m hoping that future issues of the comics for her have appearances by Loki.

Thor Goddess of Thunder 🔨⚡️💋💪

I had to buy her when the hubs and I visited Funko HQ in Everett, WA. She. Is. Awesome. And, I still need read volumes 3-5 😆

3/5

This was a pretty fun volume. There was lots of action, but I wasn't as invested in this one as I was in The Mighty Thor. That might be because the plot is all about figuring out who the new Thor is, and since I read them out of order, I already know.

This was fine, not super exciting but not boring. I might check out more of this series to see how it unravels. I will say that I appreciate that they are still calling her Thor, and not SheThor or something dumb. Nice work!

jwashreads I didn't even realize there was a new Thor until I was reading Unbeatable Squirrel Girl and she made an appearance. It maks me really interested in reading this. 7y

Thor's a lady now, and she couldn't be any more awesome! This was a really fun comic. I kind of wish it had focused even more on the new Goddess of Thunder, but I also understand the need for a good bit of set up. Definitely convinced me I'm going to have to pick up volume 2!

I didn't have a lot of expectations when I started reading this. I already knew who the identity of Thor, Goddess of Thunder was prior to starting it (thanks spoilers). I enjoyed it. I enjoyed seeing a woman take on the mantle of Thor and carrying Mjolnir and kicking ass and taking names. Definitely going to check out the rest of the series.

Foxyfictionista Someone spoiled it for me too. That's why I haven't read the second one yet. 😑 7y

Read for the Read Harder Challenge 2017 - Read a superhero comic with a female lead
Not my cup of tea though I did really enjoy Nimona so i don't think it is the comic part - maybe the superhero part?

Picked up Thor The Goddess of Thunder for Book Riot's #readharderchallenge for the superhero comic with a female lead. While I already read and love Ms. Marvel with Kampala Kahn, I wanted to pick up something new for the challenge. Then I found Black Magic in the new releases section. The library near my work actually has a great graphic novel section!

Marvel, prior to the release announced that The female wielding Mjolnir was not Lady Thor, Ms Thor, or anything other than Thor. What is most amusing is the constant referencing the misogyny of the comic world, mocking and using the very words that said, "Thor can't be a woman!"

I'll admit that my knowledge of Thor is somewhat lacking (marvel movies and stories I read as a kid), but he's my least favorite because of his arrogance, entitlement, and anger issues. I was excited to hear Thor was getting a revamp in female form... and this is an interesting beginning. I was hoping for a bit more plot, and less dude-Thor, honestly. I'll check out the second volume and decide after that if I'll ultimately continue.

maximoffs I loved this comic SO MUCH. It makes me sad you didn't love it 😭 8y
Darthdad I think the subsequent volumes are much better than this one. To me this story was about why guy Thor wasn't around and who she is. The more I've learned about her the more I love this character 8y

This one almost ruined the whole thing for me. It was promised to be 'feminist' because yay! female Thor - but made the men look like idiots and the female villain do this. Poppycock. Furthermore, who knew that 'Thor' isn't a given, personal name but a title?

Caralen The relaunch, The Mighty Thor, is much better. 8y

Enjoyed this one a lot! Thor is totally badass! I'm so fascinated by who she really is, I can't wait to keep reading. The gender politics of Asgard/Asgardia is really interesting and I'd like to read more about that too. Also, Odin needs to chill.
