    Both are great, but Ragnarok is better to me. It's just pure "Thor" in every way

    Surtur Saga for me has always been that defining Arch in the Thor verse. Written so well. Tons of cliff hangers, Epic enemy, Team ups, and of course That suprise ending... Surtur Saga FTW

    Heck yeah Overall I can live with that. I'd place eternals above Ragno and Ballad but this is just as good. Let's bring Simmonson back (I wish)

    Maybe we can do a Thor leading Ladies or villians or something

    Figured that Surtur Saga would win and Ragnarok 2nd, but I'm pretty happy to see Ballad in 3rd, didn't expect that.

    Weird that God Butcher isn't up there, but I also think I like all of these arcs at least as much as God Butcher.

    Pretty solid list but I'm a bit surprised at the lack of Jurgens representation - imo Spiral is better than any of the voted top 3.

    @blackspidey2099: @kevd4wg: The Reigning Saga came in at fourth place, so still pretty good. God Butcher on 5th place.

    EDIT: Update with the top five.

    Thanks for the effort & thread...

    Liked this more than the Thor best writers, since unlike the writers, i never put much thought in Thor arcs hierarchy.

    It will be interesting to see how the top five here compares to the other site.

    Simonson at the top, but with completely different arcs, and God Butcher fared better there, which is to be expected, but Walt did have three arcs in the top five as opposed to only two here. Anyway, yeah, it's been fun seeing how the results have evolved over the last two months, I'd actually be interested to see how every story arc ranks from first to last.

    @thor-parker: Nice. I usually don't think about people in the industry, either current or former, keeping tabs on discussions/topics on the boards around here.

    @antithetical: @coolcat4: Yeah, pretty cool that Oeming answered, Walter Simonson is aware of the result as well, I tweeted the contest to him and he liked the tweet, so I guess he may have looked at this thread too.
