: Not surprising, that's when the title started going down hill. But, I've started to keep track of the title recently for obvious reasons. I missed the death of Odin storyline, but so far the current creative team is showing great promise.
Fuck. Fuckfuckfuck. I liked what he was doing there. I mean, there were problems, but they were problems I had always had with the character, so how could he escape them?
I'll try and pick up ish 50 if I can.
What's funny, though, is that I didn't stop buying it because it was getting worse (though I thought it was) so much as just not having the spare cash anymore ... I cut out virtually all comic purchases, except for Garth Ennis pretty much (not counting people like Kevin or Frank Miller, who don't put out stuff regularly enough to make a severe dent in the wallet ... plus "Deadpool" which was just bouncing back to good again around that point ... didn't get into Alan Moore for another year or so). But I always wondered what happened with Thor ... glad to know I didn't miss anything.
How many deaths is that now for Odin?
