I loved it so much that I won't be selling my copy any time soon. This volume may no longer be a whale, but in all honesty, I don't care. Then came a reprint to coincide with the release of the aforementioned Thor: Ragnarok. In those five years, this book had become a 'whale' in the collecting world (a highly sought after, difficult to find edition), fetching prices high above its original cover price. As a result, it was shelved, not to be opened again for five and a half years, when I found myself newly motivated to read this classic run (thanks in part to having seen Thor: Ragnarok). By the time I got back to it, I had completely lost track of what I had read to that point, but had read enough that starting over to refresh my memory didn't seem like a fun idea. Needless to say, I found myself spending most of my free time with her as opposed to sitting around the house reading comics. As a matter of fact, this was the book that I put down in order to go meet her that fateful night. I began reading it immediately and had made my way a little more than half way through before meeting (and becoming very distracted by) the woman who would become my wife. I had no familiarity with the material, but had read enough modern Thor that I felt pretty confident in picking this up (especially after a good friend of mine urged me to do so).
