In the early days of comics, after the comics code authority was introduced, people thought MArvel was jumping the shark by bringing in a streak of uninteresting monster stories with absurd names to match: TORR, MUNGORRR, POOOPOR,


They really need to give GORRRRRRR a new name. He seems like a cool character.

@ImTheGoodGuy: I think 'the God Butcher' works pretty well.

It certainly does. They should just keep it that way. It makes him sounds god-damned intimidating.

@lizardking71

know what's funny? when I read your comment, I read "GoT" as "Game of Thrones." then I realized that Alan Taylor is known for both GoT (Game of Thrones) and the GoT (God of Thunder) movie.

mind = a little blown

This is similar to Iron Fist's origin in Marvel Premire #15. Except wolves, not lizards killed his mama.

This series is pretty kickass so far. I'm wondering if we'll eventually see Malekith leading up to the Thor 2 coming out.

Jason Aaron's never written a bad comic. Not that I've seen anyway.

Problem with super star pencillers, they can only do a few issues. Ribic should have at least finished the arc
