By their very nature, superhero comics at the Big Two don't often get to tell lengthy, complete stories with definitive endings. There's always another story to tell and another bend in the road for these heroes. Part of the appeal with Jane Foster inheriting the mantle of Thor is that her story can truly end. There may always be more enemies to battle and deeds to accomplish for the Odinson, but Jane has been fighting against her inevitable death since her very first appearance in Jason Aaron's run. And now that she's reached the end of her road, this series is paying off on years of crucial build-up.
After last month's downbeat, introspective issue, "The Death of the Mighty Thor" reaches its climax as Jane transforms for what looks to be the last time and confronts the Mangog amid the flaming ruins of Asgard. Aaron and artist Russell Dauterman craft what is easily one of the most action-packed and violent issues of the series to date. Nearly every page is crammed with images of desperate gods pummeling or being pummeled by their unstoppable enemy. Dauterman brings an added sense of energy to his pages through his panel designs. Rather than relying on clean, geometric arrangements, Dauterman's layouts are defined by sharp angles and clashing liens. It's as if the sheer force of Mangog's fury is warping the pages of this book.
