Thor: The Black Galaxy is an uneven collection. For Thor completists, it is a must, but for casual fans, you can probably skip it.more Thor Epic Collection-Volume 18: The Black Galaxy is a mixed bag with fun stuff like the Eric Masterson/Thor relationship but so-so 1990s stuff like the Kirby-esque Code: Blue (the bland superhuman task force meant to deal with threats). The comic sets up future issue in which Eric is adjusting to being Thor (and much future issues where Eric becomes Thunderstrike). It was a nice change for the comic and an attempt to humanize the god. The following issue features Eric Masterson having the powers of Thor, but still having his own mind. Through his actions Thor is forced to break Odin’s law, and as a result, Odin is forced to order Thor banished. The story is a big set-up for Loki to “banish” Thor. The volume is primarily a big change up for Thor. I still commend the Epic Collections as a means to read quality made big runs of series. They don’t really feel like a complete storyline, but it is nice (for those who grew up in the period) to read a more traditional comic book that isn’t necessarily six issue arcs. While the Black Galaxy story is a rather defined storyline, the following issues are just random happenings of Thor. As a result, the story is more just a chunk of Thor. The Epic Collections are very long, and most stories at this time weren’t thought about for collections. Thor Epic Collection-Volume 18: The Black Galaxy is a clunky, chunky part of the Thor run. The period is very 1990s, and this has the weird transition to more modern style of comic book to the classic comic books that predate the change in style. I read Thor: The Black Galaxy Saga before picking up this epic collection. Issues in the collection were also featured in Thor: The Black Galaxy Saga and Thor: Thunderstrike. Following Thor Epic Collection-Volume 17: In Mortal Flesh, the volume features art by Herb Trimpe, Gary Hartle, Ron Frenz, and Richard Bennett.
