This main event ends in this issue and it ends with a bang. With the stakes are high on both sides, the serpent wants to conquer the world and the avengers wants to prevent the razing of the world by Odin. Ironman and Thor arrived just in time with the enchanted weapons for the avengers just as serpent is unleashing its final attack. All the avengers wields a new weapon and Wolverine has the overall nicest looking weapon and costume. Too bad not many pages are dedicated to his awesome new outfit.
The main boss fight is between Thor and the serpent and countless of page is dedicated to this as both battled to the death. The rest of avengers takes on the other minions and the fight is more balanced now. Captain America even managed to pickup Thor's Mjolnir after it was disposesed during Thor's battle with serpent. Predictably it all comes down to Thor delivering the fatal blow to the serpent by stabbing it on the head just as Odin's armies is marching to earth to raze it. It takes so much from Thor that he died from it just as the prophecy predicted. Meanwhile the serpent's minions including Skadi/Sin lost their powerful hammers and returned to their normal self. In the aftermath, the avengers starts rebuilding and Thor's body is returned back to Asgard for final rites. But it all doesn't end there as the repercussion from the war spins of a few storylines involving Sin and Hulk. There's plenty enough of battle action here but the story is predictable enough though the art work more than make up for it.
