2. Thor: The Mighty Avenger

This one hurts. A lot.

Thor: The Mighty Avenger was an absolute favorite amongst comics critics but it unfortunately failed to gain the readership it needed to avoid cancellation. The series was an all ages appropriate Thor series focused on his relationship with Jane Foster. Of course, we also got guest appearances from Giant Man, Iron Man, Captain Britain, and Namor for fun. Which this book was.

Every issue left a smile on my face, and its cancellation hit me like a freight train.

Roger Landridge writes incredible adventure comedy, and Chris Samnee’s art is absolutely b-e-a-utiful. Seriously, this was an all-star book through and through.

Fortunately, we did get one last outing for the book, via a Thor/Captain America Free Comic Book Day one-shot by Landridge and Samnee. Not nearly enough of a finale, but it had to do.

Odds of returning: 1 in 100. Landridge has moved on to write a bunch more comics, including the acclaimed Muppets books for Boom and Samnee is currently the artist on the new Black Widow series, so they’re both pretty busy. But again, this book was cancelled due to poor readership, so odds of it coming back anyway are near impossible.

Sigh, why can’t we have nice things?
