TIM: Dauterman is fantastic at integrating sound FX into his art in really dynamic, evocative ways, and he goes a step further here with FX that are panels in their own right.pic.twitter.com/LhUpZVjkJ7

Dauterman’s Spider-Man never stands the same way twice. There's not a single neutral feet-planted pose here, and it gives Spidey this twitchy energy. It also helps establish him as out of place alongside Asgardians – note how he pops in at the bottom corner of the page.pic.twitter.com/npqNTbwJD2

I love this page of incredibly purple narration. Tim’s written about how Aaron switches between first- and third-person narration in his run (http://timplusalex.com/comics/march-to-asgard-2-war-of-the-realms-jason-aaron-thor-god-of-thunder-original-sin-jane-foster …) and this is very much the latter, bringing that same mythic storybook quality to the sequence.pic.twitter.com/Wy12A6fF79

This page works to link up the disparate areas of Marvel New York, each with their own localised characters, stories and genres. This Punisher panel really breaks down those barriers, as one genre intrudes on another.pic.twitter.com/llNXaOOWAE

TIM: As the magic of the other Nine Realms starts to intrude on to Midgard, the panels of everyday New York become detached from the page and tip like dominoes.pic.twitter.com/m9f8FqOIUp

TIM: The final domino falls (note the blank corners signifying this double-page-size panel is also askew) and New York erupts into a rainbow of Matt Wilson pyrotechnics. When you want to blow shit up on the comics page, there’s no one better.pic.twitter.com/7E2QboH69e

TIM: (Minor spoilers if you’ve avoided promo for War of the Realms) The “open your eyes” line feels so directed towards Daredevil that it has to be foreshadowing for what’s going to happen to him during this event.pic.twitter.com/l38Fnyaa5P

This panel does a great job of selling the premise of this entire event – the clashing of mundanity and epic scale, an incursion of things that shouldn’t be here. Plus, the frosting-up of the windows is an A+ detail.pic.twitter.com/jeHfgTUOwD

TIM: The background of this panel features both Thori terrifying a Dark Elf into submission, and one of my favourite minor tropes: a fantasy creature getting absolutely blatted by a car.pic.twitter.com/o5GTZqx8AD

Asgardians misunderstanding heroes’ names and turning them into fantasy titles is a hoary old trope (cf. “Man of Spiders”, in this very same issue) but for some reason I love this one. CAPTAIN OF AMERICA.pic.twitter.com/v8XSiwmkXI

The one dud note in the issue for me was some of the dialogue given to Daredevil and Dr Strange. The glib quippiness is dialled up to Spidey/Iron Man levels – presumably to contrast with the Asgardians, but it means Midgard's heroes don't feel distinct from *one another*.pic.twitter.com/tXjvIMPneA

Cap’s voice, though, stays distinctive. Steve Rogers is one of very few characters who could deliver this kind of line while looking completely unfazed.pic.twitter.com/B7hhmaOLzq

As already established, Dauterman is the master of tilted action panels. But where do you go from there, when you need to sell an especially powerful impact? HULK SMASH PANEL BORDERS, natch.pic.twitter.com/YMYSjWzkPg

Our villains enter. “Lords of Midgard” is a callback to the title of a 2016 Mighty Thor arc, but I’m intrigued by the choice to put it in a logo font. Does that mean it’s their official Team Name? Should we be expecting a Lords of Midgard spin-off book?pic.twitter.com/tj2RX7U7WO

TIM: Ulik has been working alongside Malekith’s ally Dario Agger since back in Thor: God of Thunder #21, and every time he shows up, I am reminded how much I love his extremely Kirby/Fourth World design. It’s those knuckle dusters that raise it to perfection.pic.twitter.com/kmv27ipkHw

...And that's as far as we're going, so as not to spoil the end of the issue. Thanks for reading this
#oneweekonecomic thread, and remember to check out@trivia_lad's March to Asgard blog series as he continues to work his way through Thor: http://timplusalex.com/tag/the-march-to-asgard/ …pic.twitter.com/N6KQnme9yG
