Ron Frenz channels his inner Kirby.

An Asgard establishing shot, an angry Odin, Thor bonding with a young fan and a gorgeous goddess. A perfect page!?

 Thor's 672nd appearance

What the cover promises it more than delivers. Tom DeFalco masterfully makes Thor and Doctor Blake's history more coherent. Herb Trimpe works his visual magic on the cover and both the stories inside.

The 5 page Tales of Asgard back-up does not have Thor in it. 

Grim Hogun is the star.
