05 - 3 Thors and a Butcher

Welcome back to the Comicast!
This week, Jeff, Madison, and Sam take a break from their beloved limited series and take a look at Thor's encounters with Gorr, the God Butcher, in preparation for the theatrical release of Thor: Love and Thunder! This episode provides background on the characters of Thor and Gorr for those unfamiliar with the comic iterations of the characters, while taking a deep dive into the plot of the first two volumes of Jason Aaron's definitive (100+ issue/7 year) run on Marvel's God of Thunder, with stellar art by Esad Ribic.
Spoilers - beware! We read these books before the movie was due to release, so what we discuss could give away major plot points, or be changed entirely for the film adaptation. Feel free to check back after you see the movie!
