Oeming is one I've been meaning to get a trade collection of, but I shied away thinking it was part of a larger crossover (Avengers Disassembled? Is that right) which I hate. But Oeming loves the mythology -- have you ever read his own Norse epic, Hammer of the Gods? He also had a nice What If? one-shot for Marvel, where Thor became the herald of Galactus.<br />For me, though, the gold standard on Thor was the Simonson run in the 80s. Maybe because those were among the first Thor comics I ever read.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
