Garbage. Absolute trash. This issue justifies the rampant piracy of the comic industry. The Darkseid fight was also bad, but not killing Jane is beyond irritating to me.
Haha. If you ever have a chance, ask a Jane Thor fan, why they like the character. It's pretty interesting.
After the words noble, self-sacrificing and brave, you can point out that they are describing Thor Odinson. Then they'll discuss how she's also a frail mortal. That's when you realize they don't actually know anything about the mythos and are ignorant about Donald Blake. 90% of them are like this and only enjoy the book because the art is pretty. Also, feminism is in. Once you understand the driving force behind this, you can understand why it seems to have fallen apart so hard.
Aaron wrote himself in a corner. The whisper, the mother storm, the retcon about the hammer's origins etc. he was a dog chasing a car. He caught the car and didn't know what to do.
His whole premise for this story has been exploring the concept of being worthy and making Thor a better character. Do you feel that either of those things have been accomplished through Jane? I think most, are left more confused after the story than before.
