Thor does look awesome under Coipel.
I think I'm starting to grow resistant to seeing people use Thor as a measuring stick though. So I'm not as affected by it anymore. It's just my child hood and current hero after all. To whom I've spent countless hours making videos for, defending, sharing, and enjoying. I shouldn't be mad that writers get to use him as a universal punching bag in this story just to try and make other characters look good because they lack the skill to produce a story that doesn't involve using the most powerful hero in Marvel to get the ignorant masses attention by spitting on his history as if he had little more purpose than to make other worthless piece of &^&* characters look good.
So anyways I really don't have anything to be upset about, and I will sit back and enjoy the fresh and creative ides by the very capable writers holding the pen for him right now. 🙂
To add more fuel to the fire, lets not forget that it seems Thor and everyone else on the strike team where wearing armor cooked up by Tony to help against the phoenix 5. So that means an amped (granted we don't know by how much) Thor got one shoted by someone with one fifth of the phoenix's overall power.

I think people are overreacting. First of all - we dont know that he was koed. Second - what makes you think it's 1/5th of Phoenix force? I dont think they each got a portion of the power. More like they all can tap into the same source.
they have at the very most tiny fractions of power from it

* anyway, T'Challa made a good point... did any of them argued that Thor is too powerful to be trusted? same as their other powerful members like Sersi, Hercules, etc... it might be a Civil War II...
* the main story is "meh", but the moral issues they are bringing up is actually more interesting --- on how each character would react on the issue... my thumbs down is going up for AvX...

It's comics for gods sake. Things change. Change is welcome. Sales are high so that tells me there are a lot of long time fans as well as new ones who appreciate & understand the event.
No matter what, its going to be some who are disappointed with something no matter what kind of event it is. Can't please everybody.
