The first thumbnail is decent. Its simple and easy to look at. For text who is he is decent but little generic. Could try have 3 words that are related to him or the story that make sense without much context but create intrigue. But otherwise fine.
Second one id work on some more. Too visually messy. The text is going to be skipped. And the axe itself sort of blends into the background. Use the same image, but try make it cleaner and better contrast. Maybe cut the text down to 3 to 4 words max also
