The Immortal Thor #19 - "Tales of Asgard"

[laughing_tree]

This one's an experiment that came into being almost as soon as I started batting around a "Tales Of Asgard" issue – something that would act as a whistle-stop tour through the current status quo for Asgard and the Asgardians before the big explosions go off later in the year. I mentioned to Editor Wil Moss that we could do it as a bunch of one-page vignettes with a new artist on every page... and once I'd said it, I couldn't hold back from attempting it. -- Al Ewing"

I know Alvi is being a bit performative-- "You're not even worth my putting down this game to talk to you"--but I'm still impressed at his ability to hold a weighty, emotional conversation while attacking the Death Star.

Isn't that how everyone attacks the Death Star?

:-D

I dunno, given that his screen shows a rear view of an X-Wing right in the centre, maybe he's playing a Tie pilot? "I have you now" and all that. :P

Amora, Queen of Bad Choices and Belated Regrets.

...any relation to the great space captain, Bucky?

[scorntx]

Amora, learning the hard way that any power that requires sacrificing loved ones isn't really worth having.



(... anyone else getting the suspicion that the "Immortal" bit is going to refer to Thor dying and being temporarily replaced by Magni?
A more figurative immortality than Hulk's literal?)

I still don't get why Skurge is so keen to steal Thor's destined death. He was already dead, and redeemed himself by his manner of dying. Why return just to do it again?
