An Omni including an event title AND mapped property = instant buy

[@mfolwell]

I wish they took the backup story from _Thor_ #1 and held it back until after #4, given it's a prelude to the story in #5-6 and doesn't have a direct connection to the story in #1-4 (Christian Ward even did a variant cover to #1 they could've used as a cover/title page for it). But aside from very minor nitpicks like that, yeah, this is pretty much perfectly mapped.

[@StegoKing]

I'll be so happy to have the entire Aaron Thor Epic on my shelf.

[@jacobcollier23]

Unworthy Thor and King Thor still look amazing! Coipel and Ribic are just the best at modern Thor.

[@varsas]

I’m a huge fan of the run, it might be my favourite Marvel run, and it made me a fan of Thor when I was completely indifferent to him in the past. I caught up on the series in digital trades a little before the final Del Mundo run started and am really happy that I have it all physically and oversized now!

[@BriarDare]

Vol 1 was my very first omnibus (of many already...) and is what brought me to this wonderful channel! I picked up the WotR omni last year as well and now I'm so excited to get Vol 2 next week!! 😁

[@guillermomaldonado6277]

If Ribic could have stayed for the whole run... man, that would have been one for the ages!

[@mzqamarul]

Held off from reading v1 until I get my hands on this! Can't wait to start

[@AntonioHernandez-oq1jv]

I LOVE that the War Of The Realm portion is mapped in reading order

[@IsaacFruits]

My most anticipated Omni this year, can’t wait to finish this run!

[@gqd1975]

This is the omnibus I am most excited for this month. Can't wait! :)

[@bunkmastab]

Well this here's an instant buy, tell me more Omar!

[@ml6158]

SO EXPENSIVE!

[@nathanwalters4867]

Oh yeah! Been waiting on this a long time. I don't understand why anyone would go for the direct market covers. Sure they're nice but Ribic's for vol 1 and Dauterman's for vol 2 are just perfect. They represent their respective volumes excellently. I haven't read Unworthy, War Of The Realms or those tie-in, and King Thor so I got some big surprises coming. My most anticipated omni of the year. Take care and peace everyone.

[@xposhboyx]

I prefer the direct market cover, I love the piece of artwork they use on the regular cover but I don't like that they shrunk it down with those big fat borders. Not sure if wrapping it around would have worked at all but I don't like so much negative space with borders on Omnis.

[@nathanwalters4867]

That's a great point. I get they shrunk them to fit them on the covers, but they didn't have to so much. I'm not a fan of those grey borders honestly either. Well, as long as there is a Thor on the cover then that works.

[@mdb9920]

Modern Marvel Thor Epic. This is the Thor run to own.

[@chinohormann]

I like the standard cover for this, and how it matches the standard covers for volume 1 and SORTA the War of the Realms omni just with red borders instead of grey. I really liked volume 1 which surprised me. Before that I never really card about Thor until Thor: Love and Thunder (yes, I like THAT one) and Adventures in Babysitting (lol!). Looking for to this one now. I'll probably re-read volume 1, or at least flip through it, to get myself back up to speed though. I hope the follow-up Thor run by Donny Cates gets an omni soon, now too.

[@fishin4bass2002]

Is it me or does it seem that Thor has had some great art going back to the fraction run or maybe even as far back as the JMS run.

[@marcelo-ramos]

There were a several crappy fill in artists during Jason Aaron's run, and I would prefer if Del Mundo stuck to covers, which are awesome, but I'm not a fan of his work on interiors.

[@davidgraham8299]

Wow, THAT far back, huh?

[@fishin4bass2002]

@@marcelo-ramos I liked it on new mutants but I also felt like it matched the story. It might not be the same for thor

[@LordAuthor]

I’m waiting for the reprint of THOR omnibus vol. 2 and hopefully THOR omnibus vol 5

[@Robd07]

Vol 2 came out already

[@LordAuthor]

@@Robd07 I know that but it is out of print

[@maul_3608]

This has some of the best art I have ever seen. Absolutely love Jason Aaron's run!

[@jessemillan1385]

Whosoever holds this Hammer if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.

[@marcelo-ramos]

Are you trying to start a discussion? 😆

[@davidgraham8299]

Don't you mean, "who so ever holds this omnibus" ?

[@TwistedKISSter]

This is great timing, just finished reading the first Omni I ever bought, Vol 1. Looking forward to the conclusion.

[@CarlosDias-er6dd]

The mapping is similar to the Venomnibus by Cates and Stegman, with the King in Black mini series perfectly mapped with the Venom issues.

[@OmniNationComics]

LETS GOOOOOO ! I can’t wait to get my copy of this ! Jason Aaron’s run was an experience to read. Excellent overview as always Omar ! 🤘🏾🔥

[@dnickle5276]

Really happy to finally have this Omni in my collection. I love the Mighty Thor storyline because unfortunately I know how it plays out as my Dad lost his battle with cancer a couple years ago. Wish they would’ve done a more coherent translation in Love and Thunder

[@datboisteve6992]

Crazy that THE Thor run is only 2 omnis... Let thee who be worthy possess both tomes telling the great tales of The Thunder God, Thor. 🔨⚡️

[@Dumballa]

Your Thor Omnis side by side looks real nice 👍🏻

[@IvanOrdell]

150$, they're insane

[@the_marvel_omnivore]

This looks truly EPIC! I can't wait to own both volumes and read this story for the first time!

[@benjamin_parry]

Can't wait.

[@collectingmemoriesyt]

I'm really looking forward to this one!

[@PatricksCollectibles]

Just finishes reading vol 1 and you better believe im getting this one as well. 😅

[@Robd07]

Now this is exciting!

[@JoeLovesComics]

Awesome overview, so excited for this!!!!!!

[@NearMintCondition]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@izik7220]

Jason aaron thors is the best run

[@StillOnly25c]

Wow I seem so far behind in my Thor Omnibus books ..... Oh well, that omnibus looks awesome

[@comicslove55]

wow, nice that it looks as if all the variant covers are full page as opposed to Immortal Hulk omni, do you know if Aaron requested that the variants be full page and not in thumbnails??

[@siriactuallysara]

I have been waiting for this one. Instant buy day 1.

[@siriactuallysara]

Only problem is I have completely filled a large bookcase with omnibuses now and the 2nd is almost filled as well now.

[@swbookcollector]

Ahh I need the High Republic Omni overview!

[@Alvarakk]

Such an awesome book!

[@xposhboyx]

Psyched to get the JMS Omnibus and just do a massive Thor read from Heroes Reborn onward

[@litewait633]

Perhaps the best Thor runs ever. So excited to own these two omnis.

[@rolltic]

Random question, are you going to be reviewing the new Spawn hardcover anytime soon? Also love your videos!

[@fishin4bass2002]

People read spawn still?

[@HansBoopie]

I skipped the spoilers section, was there discussion about how this double dips against the War of the Realms omni?

[@wesleywiggins958]

The only double dips are War of the Realms #1-6 & Thor (2018) #8-16. Everything else is not in The War of the Realms Omni.

[@McDuendis]

I still haven't read the first one 😢

[@theomnibusprime4046]

Unworthy Thor is collected in Thor By Jason Aaron Complete Collection Vol. 4

[@Inarelationshipthecomickid]

Hey. I am so confused. I am trying to do the dark crisis reading order but it includes batmam #122. Batman #123. And batman annual. So where does batman #124 fit in?

[@UltimatePower01]

124 is not necessary for dark crisis is at all, that annual is just setting up for Batman incorporated series by Ed brisson. Shadow war crossover is mainly to focus on Deathstroke after his Deathstroke Inc series to give context with Deathstroke being a main character in dark crisis.

[@adsteeley9324]

is this worth for a loki fan who doesnt care much for the others?

[@marcelo-ramos]

I don't think so. Loki plays a small role in this one. The book is really great, but you need to care about the others.

[@adsteeley9324]

@@marcelo-ramos alright I appreciate the response

[@jonnyneverland5276]

I love Aaron’s run on Thor but I was so disappointed Dauterman left when Odinson returned and it was relaunched. I was not a fan of Del Mundo’s art on the title at all.
