Immortal Thor #1: "All Weather Turns to Storm"

[alliterator]

"I'm writing Loki again, and I'm enjoying making them a little unpredictable, in ways that are completely new to the character but should hopefully fit perfectly with where they've been and who they've become. Loki's the God of Stories now, Skald of the Realms, and settling into that role might have made them more dangerous than ever—after all, a storyteller's first allegiance is to the tale. What does that mean for Thor? You'll see."
-- Al Ewing

You would know something about gift horses, Loki

The last panel is the point where Thor should realize that this isn't going to end well.

Its....its really sad honestly. Feels a lot like looking at the family members of people struggling with addiction.

Does Loki's fight against causality remind anyone else of Sandman's Lucifer?

[cainofdreaming]

Not... exactly. He's "we" about it, when Lucifer is only ever and always about "me". Well, maybe he gives a slight toss about Michael and Elaine. But it was always personal for him.

"Wand of Wutevar!"

Ha! I get it.

It really does my heart good to see Ewing's gap-toothed mischievous Loki back in the regular Marvel continuity!

Ewing’s one if the few writers I trust automatically (though even he couldn’t get me to enjoy Venom), but combined with his previous uses of Loki, I’m already hooked here. He also seems to understand that Thor is both god and super hero, and you need to balance those two aspects out.

I’m glad to see Thor back in his classic togs too.

Hopefully, Crusher and Titania will put in an appearance at some point.

Very solid start, hitting the ground running.
(Also, yay gender-fluid Loki is back!)

Everyone refers to Loki as 'they' as well, which is pretty nice.
