Summary

Occasionally this theology nerd comes out as the other kind of nerd, a comic book nerd. My absolute favorite comic book run is Jason Arron’s time on Thor and it is at the center of the next MCU film, Thor: Love and Thunder. In this episode, HBC’s Guru of Geekdom, Rev. Will Rose, is here with a Thor specialist. – Ryan Does’ of Across the Bifrost: the Mighty Thor Podcast and we have a blast digging into Thor.

The best move is to find a local comic book store. You can check out Jason’s stuff digitally through Amazon.
