Exclusive Marvel preview: The Goddess of Thunder faces The Destroyer in Thor #7
Making Thor a woman was a bold move by Marvel Comics, and it’s paid off considerably for the publisher. The current female-led Thor title is consistently outselling the previous volume of writer Jason Aaron’s run by around 20,000 copies a month, a significant boost in sales that proves change can be a very good thing. It helps that the book is a whole lot of fun, pairing Aaron with artist Russell Dauterman and colorist Matthew Wilson for a beautifully rendered action adventure that fully explores the wide scope of Thor’s world. It builds on the events of Aaron’s Thor: God Of Thunder while still having its own distinct flavor, making it one of the most captivating titles of Marvel’s recent “Avengers Now!” initiative.
