RAGNAROK BREAKING OF HELHEIM #2 $4.99

(W/A/CA) Walter Simonson

    Thor begins his descent into the Kingdom of the Dead, but finds the way blocked by a titanic Hall rising before him on the rim of Helheim. Guarded by both the living and the dead and ruled by the iron hand of a would-be god, it hides beneath its deepest dungeons a secret powerful enough to shatter the very foundations of the Dusklands.

AVENGERS #24 $3.99

(W) Jason Aaron (A/CA) Stefano Caselli

    If the Avengers thought one Ghost Rider was tough to deal with, wait'll they see how many Spirits of Vengeance have just been unleashed by the King of Hell, Johnny Blaze! Including the craziest, most powerful Rider of them all...That's right, it's the Avengers vs. Cosmic Ghost Rider!

 AVENGERS LOKI UNLEASHED #1 $4.99 

(W) Roger Stern (A) Ron Lim (CA) Patrick Zircher

       The Siege of Avengers Mansion is over, and the Avengers are battered and in disarray! It's the worst time of all for Loki to discover a new source of mystic energies - one that connects to another classic villain and that will have dire consequences for all of reality unless those Avengers who remain standing are able to intercede!

Lim variant

PUNISHER KILL KREW #3 $3.99 

(W) Gerry Duggan (A) Juan Ferreyra (CA) Tony Moore

   With the unstoppable Juggernaut by his side, Frank is deadlier than ever!  With Foggy Nelson by his side, Frank is... well represented within the legal system?  The Punisher's merry band of killers (and lawyer) continue their mission of vengeance, but true danger looms right around the corner. Thor drops by and provides some comedy relief.

 If Marvel hadn't of run out of room on the cover they might have mentioned that Heimdall rebuilds the Rainbow Bridge (with the the help of the Royal Scepter). He's filling in for Odin, who felt the need of a nap.

Ron Frenz and Joe Sinnott channel their inner Kirby with this dynamic full-pager that delivers what of the cover's promises.

Unfortunately the cover doesn't warn potential buyers that there is also a non-Thor 5 page "Tales of the Earth Force" back-up story.

ON THE SPINNER RACKS Sep/Oct 1968

If you hadn't read JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY #83  or  MARVEL TALES #1, it was your lucky day. Thor's origin was available for the third time.

Even if you had, it was still worth 12 cents to experience the 7 brand new pages of Kirby Thor art that bookended the reprint. This one was my personal favorite.
