Marvel & DC Omnibus

Jane Foster takes up the mantle of Thor as she battles terminal cancer: each time she transforms, the chemo poison is nullified but the disease progresses. One of the most emotional stories in modern superhero comics — Aaron proves that the worthiness of Mjolnir is not about power but about sacrifice. Includes War of the Realms and the closing stretch of Jason Aaron’s seven-year Thor saga. Russell Dauterman delivers art that matches the epic scale of every page.

Jason Aaron kicks off his run with the highly regarded God Butcher opener. Gorr, a villain with real reasons to hate the gods (all his people starved to death while the deities looked on), kills gods for the cosmos. Aaron turns the conflict into a reflection on faith and responsibility. Esad Ribić on the art with digital watercolour pages.
