    Love how much of Thor is getting the omnibus treatment.

  • @MrGeorgFTW

    You can now read Thor from 1998-2019 in omni form without missing an issue. Awesome

      Plus Thor by Cates will be out in September. So you can bump that up to 2023

    Coipel was my favourite artist for such a long time. This is my definitive Thor.

    Looking forward to a huge binge read of Thor once I get this later this month.

    JMS run to me is what Aaron's run is to most people. I loved this run honestly.

  • @xposhboyx
    @xposhboyx 7 месяцев назад +29

    I love how huge and fully packed this is! Amazing!

    JMS run on Thor was my introduction to the character. As someone who never really cared about Thor(I like him a lot now due to loving mythologies and larger than life gods and heroes) and JMS really grounded Thor. Literally in the setting but also delved into the human side of Thor, focusing on his god status and its relation to mortals. I can absolutely see why the first Thor movie borrowed a lot from this run(still the best Thor film. Love and Thunder can suck it.) with the small town elements. All in all, if there is ONE run of Thor or Omnibus you should pick it; it's this one. JMS did wonders on Spider-Man and also Thor. And also, if you haven't seen Babylon 5, WATCH IT. The best Sci-fi series ever made. Not even close.

    • @Mrmightyturtle
      @Mrmightyturtle 6 месяцев назад +1

      Babylon 5 is great but it's no TNG or Battlestar Galactica.

  • @Griffnix
    @Griffnix 7 месяцев назад +14

    This was my first Thor run. Sad that JMS left and all the drama involved that but Gillen did a great job as a continuation. Makes sense that it was combined.

  • @dbsasuke

    Best Thor run

  • @Vardimiss
    @Vardimiss 7 месяцев назад +6

    I ordered this from Organic Prices Books. With the way DMs are selling out I wanted to make sure I got it since this is my most wanted Omni of the year.

  • @George_Incruento
    @George_Incruento 7 месяцев назад +6

    This is the first omnibus of the year that I am going to buy! So good to have the opportunity to read so many years of Thor's comics

  • @Vision940_
    @Vision940_ 7 месяцев назад +6

    That lightning bolt continuity onto the Fraction spine looks awesome on the shelf!

    • @corbanwoosley6891
      @corbanwoosley6891 6 месяцев назад

      Was hoping someone else noticed that! The Mjolnir on the standard cover goes really well with the design of the Jason Aaron omnis imo, so it was a hard choice. But that lightning bolt sold me.

  • @nathanwalters4867
    @nathanwalters4867 7 месяцев назад +13

    Thank you for the overview Omar! Super excited for this. Super excited for the Cates one next year. Super excited for when Immortal Thor By Ewing gets the omni treatment. My Thor collection will be perfect! Take care and peace everyone.

  • @mjcook3922
    @mjcook3922 7 месяцев назад +5

    Wow. I like what they've done with this reprint. Gives people something additional to be excited about. Love that it fills the gap snugly.

  • @xposhboyx
    @xposhboyx 7 месяцев назад +4

    The red tint looks a little funky... I'm trying to brace myself.

  • @OmniNationComics
    @OmniNationComics 7 месяцев назад +9

    I can’t wait, I can’t wait, I CAN’T WAIT ! I had goosebumps watching this overview bro. This is gonna be a great gap filler. Loved both of these guys runs. Thor is getting alot of omnilove and I am glad. Love the way they mapped these issues too. I’m so excited ! Amazing overview as usual bro ! 🤘🏾⚡️

    Wow! Didn’t realise the DM cover was a wraparound! Thanks for the video Omar I wound up ordering that version instead!

  • @kevinwieken4381
    @kevinwieken4381 6 месяцев назад +1

    Can’t wait. One of my favorite runs of all time. And like you said, Thor was dead for like 3 years at the time!!! What a great welcome back and done right!

  • @KillerTacos54
    @KillerTacos54 7 месяцев назад +2

    Fantastic!! I really miss when comic runs used to have a really long stretch of just having the same writer and artist

  • @OKstang77
    @OKstang77 7 месяцев назад +4

    Now Marvel pleeeeaase reprint Hero's return vol 2, so I can start reading these.

  • @ReaperXC
    @ReaperXC 7 месяцев назад +5

    Jurgens through Cates we'll have ny end of the year. Now Thor is rhe best modern collected in omnibus format. DD is missing a few issues in rhe Bendis omnibus that BMB didn't write, plus Ninja. Missing the McKay DD miniseries too.

  • @TheMoheaddinbody
    @TheMoheaddinbody 7 месяцев назад +1

    Man Thor was my mom’s favorite comic character. I remember getting her the trade of vol 1 of this series and her telling me how she read the Mighty Thor as a kid. This is why I love reading comics because I get to remember my parents stories and experiences from their time reading comics. Great overview brother.

  • @Alvarakk
    @Alvarakk 7 месяцев назад +6

    I forget, remind me - What term did we arrive on to describe that moment you slide a missing omni into the shelf gap that brings such strong feelings of completeness and satisfaction?
    (At 04:30 )? Was it slidisfaction? 🤔

  • @drewb9620
    @drewb9620 7 месяцев назад +2

    This'll be my first Thor Omni

  • @obsidianchilly

    My first full marvel run that i read from start to finish
    I NEED IT

  • @saberrattler1413
    @saberrattler1413 7 месяцев назад +1

    I would love JMS to come back to Thor with a run as long as Aaron's. His work with Thor & all of the 9 realms is just so great.

  • @hamzadawud
    @hamzadawud 7 месяцев назад +4

    I would totally get this if I didn't already have the original JMS Thor Omni and two amazing custom Gillen Omnis that include all of his work on in Thor and Journey into Mystery.

  • @CesarIsaacPerez
    @CesarIsaacPerez 7 месяцев назад +1

    I've always wanted to read this story. Will have to purchase this book.

  • @laerciomabota2117
    @laerciomabota2117 7 месяцев назад +1

    It's probably the best Thor design, including the outfit since Walter Simonson Era.

  • @michaelemond7315
    @michaelemond7315 7 месяцев назад +1

    3 years without Thor comics? I had no idea. What was I doing during that time?
    Oh riiight...those were my long bubble bath years.

  • @saito0969
    @saito0969 7 месяцев назад +2

    Awesome to see this come back and be expanded. Now if we can just get Heroes Return Vol.2 reprinted. 🤞

  • @Popesize

    Might pick this up. Would be my first Thor-omni in that case

  • @juuso7792

  • @richardlewis9131
    @richardlewis9131 7 месяцев назад +1

    I bought the original omnibus of this but then had to get to Gillen TPB and Siege HC to continue the story.
    Would consider upgrading if there’s a significant sale. Hate double dipping the same material. Means I have to sell stuff.

    @darkmoonakaviri753 7 месяцев назад +1

    Now to just hold out for Heroes Return Vol 2 Reprint. Can't justify paying 300 dollars for a copy off ebay

  • @gianmarcotoval509
    @gianmarcotoval509 7 месяцев назад +1

    Honestly think marvel should’ve done the same thing with Aaron’s ghost rider and Daniel Ways ghost rider. Combine them into one omnibus

  • @litewait633

  • @jessemillan1385
    @jessemillan1385 7 месяцев назад +6

    Man, I need to read Thor by J. Michael Straczynski. Hell, I'll read anything in Marvel Comics.

  • @Wishlake
    @Wishlake 7 месяцев назад +2

    What I hate is trying to sell, what you've already collected in other formats, just to have the clean place for the omni :D :D :D

    • @JennySparkz
      @JennySparkz 7 месяцев назад +1

      I feel your pain

    • @Wishlake
      @Wishlake 7 месяцев назад +1

      what am I going to do with HC polish version of Straczynski's run, Gillen's SC Complete Collection and four issues of Siege from some PANINI Marvel collection :P ?@@JennySparkz

  • @benniemartin78
    @benniemartin78 7 месяцев назад +2

    Looking forward to having this in my collection and having an uninterrupted Thor run from Jurgens through Aaron!
    I do wish they’d reveal the spines at the same time as they reveal the covers though. Now I have to try and change my preorder to avoid that wraparound image

  • @happenstanceuk
    @happenstanceuk 6 месяцев назад +1

    The red Marvel Omnibus section of the spine is driving me nuts now it's on my shelf with the others. Why did they have to make it bigger so it looks misaligned? :(

  • @CarlosDias-er6dd
    @CarlosDias-er6dd 7 месяцев назад +5

    Which is better, this one or the Walter Simonson omnibus?

    • @Avarn388
      @Avarn388 7 месяцев назад +8

      @CarlosDias-er6dd The Simsonson material is excellent BUT keep in mind, they recolored a lot of those issues. If you do not like that, I'd avoid it. Personally, JMS run is my favorite, with Simonson's coming a close second. You won't go wrong securing this Omnibus because it's really great content wise.

    • @HydefHyde
      @HydefHyde 7 месяцев назад +4

      Simonson by far for me. JMS starts interestingly with the gradual rebirth of the Asgardians, but soon spends as much time in greasy spoon diners in Oklahoma as Simonson did in proper Asgard and the various fantastical realms and events. Plus the art in the JMS run is pretty mixed, Thor frequently looks really overweight instead of muscular. The couple of issues that Marko Djurdjevic did look great, though.

  • @ArticWS
    @ArticWS 7 месяцев назад +1

    Where is the Milligan annual placed? Also, the Milligan story from Dark Reign: The Cabal and BMB's Siege Prologue didn't seem to be included right before Siege #1, unless I missed it? The Dark Reign one is listed in the credits at the start, at least, but the other one is not. And from your showing the book seems to skip from Thor #606 to Siege #1. Is that right?

  • @SeanBals
    @SeanBals 6 месяцев назад +1

    The biggest appeal to this book is Iron Man getting ragdolled for creating the Ragnarok android

  • @siriactuallysara

    I'm also missing Wicked vol.4, lol!

  • @TinyMac13
    @TinyMac13 7 месяцев назад +1

    I have a $100 gift card to Barnes and Noble. Which omnibus should I get or preorder? I really wanted volume 1 of Captain America by Ed Brubaker but it’s out of stock... What would you recommend?

  • @robertlynn9667
    @robertlynn9667 7 месяцев назад +1

    is there a reason this omnibus is not yet available for pre-order (as it comes out later this month)? is it already sold out?

  • @gqd1975
    @gqd1975 6 месяцев назад

    Not sure I will get my dm pre-order and paid for copy of this omnibus. Shipping damages and low print run inventories make getting these books tricky. Seems like ordering a book months in advance is not a guarantee anymore.

  • @sabstraight
    @sabstraight 7 месяцев назад +2

    Is the modern Thor any good?

    • @obsidianchilly
      @obsidianchilly 7 месяцев назад +1

      I read all Thor from Dan Jurgens to Jason Aaron and some of Donny Cates' run,
      IMO this is the last great Thor run, as all other runs beyond it just focus on trashing the characters instead of building them up.
      Matt Fraction's run is just focused on resetting stuff for Fear Itself and move things around for a bit like the "new Asgard" but beyond that it's dull and retcons a LOT of stuff like Odin's personality.
      Jason Aaron's run does God Butcher pretty good but beyond that it's not all that good beyond the art.

    @marcelo-ramos 7 месяцев назад +5

    I'm one of the people who didn't like the nee character design. The custome is not as bad, but we should be able to see those arms! I also don't like how sometimes he looks fat. That face is also too weird.

    • @JennySparkz
      @JennySparkz 7 месяцев назад +2

      😂 i would never call Copiel one of my favorite artists and yep his faces can sometimes be "iffy" but I LOVED the redesigned costume and for some reason Copiel's art just "enhanced" the, The epicness of this run.

  • @supercard9418
    @supercard9418 7 месяцев назад +1

    THE Thor run, up there with Simonson's run. The DM spine looks UGLY as hell tho
