Thor: God of Thunder #1

Thor stands battle-ready against a swirling mass of dark, shadowy creatures, red cape billowing as he raises his sword against the chaos surrounding him — Esad Ribić's painted cover art sets a gripping, atmospheric tone for this 2014 Marvel NOW! collection. Writer Jason Aaron's run on Thor: God of Thunder earned glowing praise (a pull-quote right on the cover calls it "all top-notch stuff"), and this volume brings that celebrated work together in one handsome package. If you're looking for an epic, myth-scaled take on the God of Thunder, this is a compelling place to start.
