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.
