ON THE SPINNER RACKS Apr/May 1970

Thor's 4th appearance of 1970.
What the Jack Kirby/John Verpoorten cover promises the
 20  Kirby/Colletta pages of epic battle delivers.

Although he appears on 10 story pages, he does not appear on the only splash page. Neither does Thor.  Loki gets that honor.
Surtur's 7th appearance since his debut 7 years earlier in JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY #97. He wouldn't appear again until 12 years later in THOR #324.

  1. Vinnie's inks were detailed and illustrative. That cover was inked by someone else.

  2. I looked in the Kirby Estate authorized Checklist and you are right. Not sure how the mistake was made but thanks both for dropping by, being a fellow Colletta fan and for keeping the blog honest.
