The Midgard Serpent appears on the cover of THOR for the second time. The first was THOR #200. Both were drawn by John Buscema.
Roy Thomas constructs an enjoyable story that cleverly utilizes continuity. And even if it wasn't a worthy tale the impressive art of John Buscema and Tom Palmer would still make it worthy of your time.
