The Mighty Thor/Journey Into Mystery: Everything Burns by Carmine Di Giandomenico, Barry Kitson, Alan Davis, Stephanie Hans, Kieron Gillen, Matt Fraction
2.0

I think I just don't like the way Thor is written a lot of the time. It's the mix of the dialog/design of lettering.

So this is "Everything Burns" where everything...burns. Like it's always hell on Asgard. Everything must get destroyed. This time Loki and Thor team up and in the end it's all a trick, but is it? When things get intense and everyone is after the two brothers shit gets real. By the end big changes happen that lead on to other series. Without spoilers let's just say certain characters die and new ones come in and it's pretty big.

Good: THe last issue of Loki's story was great. Kind of bitter, but sweet in a way, but leaves it for interesting things to come. Also Thor had some great moments of protecting his little brother. That made me smile.

Bad: The bad guys are boring. The dialog is hard to get through, it's just so cheesy. Also the art sometimes shifts to this ugly old school feel but without the heart behind it. Some of these fights were awful. I'm spoiled by the next Thor run haha.

Overall meh. I read it to get Kid Loki's ending and while that was good the rest was boring. A 2/5.
