I know I keep banging on about structure with these reviews, but I do think the story structure here is so effectively done and finely judged, and this particular issue is a high point. There are three different storylines going on here, all concerning the same character at different stages of his life, and the use of colour to differentiate them is clear and useful. Of those three storylines, I found the one of the old, dying Thor to be the most affecting. I mean, it's an easy pathos but it works - especially when you compare it to the bit that didn't work as well for me. The whole Chronux storyline, what with its pool of blood, just isn't grabbing me. Also, I'm not sensing much interesting motivation from the God Butcher here, I have to say. It's all the-gods-are-useless-cancers-on-the-universe which, yes, I tend to agree, but so are lots of things and it doesn't really excuse the bloodbath. I feel like I've read this sort of thing before. Many times, in fact.
