The Eric Masterson persona isn’t really adding anything to this book that Donald Blake didn’t. In this issue, he’s mad that he has to have Thor inside him so he does a lot of “mental battles” with versions of Thor.
I’m not loving this run—even though last issue’s Juggernaut fight was fun.
Loki is revealed as the guy behind Acts of Vengeance. Frankly, it’s not necessary because any astute reader should have already figured it out.
Also, Ulik is running around town. That’ll matter soon.
Beta Ray Bill gets a back-up drawn by Ron Lim. It’s a space adventure and it’s also not very good.
