Doctor Doom and his Multiversal Masters of Evil have come hunting Deathloks. And now there's only one Deathlok left, trapped inside the rubble of a besieged Avengers Mountain.

Years ago, the war in Siancong ended, in a shattering, emotionally wrenching disaster few remember. And today, all the secrets buried from then have come alive to menace the present. What drew the Marvels to Siancong? What drove them out? And what was behind it all? The Avengers, Lady Lotus and more star in the earth-shaking climax of a conflict that never truly died - one that sends the present-day story barreling toward its fateful climax.

ON THE SPINNER RACKS Feb/Mar 1969

A THOR fan of more than 3 years would have recognized the bald man dominating the cover (thanks to the dynamic Jack Kirby layout) as Pluto. It was Pluto's 5th THOR appearance but only the second time he appeared on the cover.

Even though Thor is not on the Steranko cover, he appears (along with a lot of other top tier guest stars) in this Jim Steranko/Tom Palmer drawn comic.

ON THE SPINNER RACKS Feb/Mar 1965

49th Marvel comic with Thor on the cover.

Like the previous 48 covers, the layouts & pencils were by Jack Kirby. The 21st embellished by Chic Stone.

THE RETURN OF THE UTGARD-THOR!

Toranos, Elder God of the storm, had returned - and his terrible lightning now struck at the Odinson's very heart. His presence in the skies meant the gate to Utgard was once more open.

ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM #1 (OF 9) $5.99

(W) Ryan North (A) R. B. Silva (CA) Ben Harvey

Six months ago, Doctor Victor Von Doom became Sorcerer Supreme - then disappeared behind Latveria's closed borders. For most, there's enough going on in the world that Doom's absence is not a priority, and some time without him feels like a blessing. Only a few recognize it for what it truly was...the calm before the storm. It is a storm that has now arrived. The world has woken up to a new reality: Doctor Doom, Earth's Sorcerer Supreme, has magically taken over every broadcast medium on the planet and declared himself Emperor of the World - the ruler of a new United Latveria! And shockingly, impossibly, all of Earth's leaders seem to be going along with this. Luckily, whether it's mind control or Doombots, whatever's affecting them hasn't affected Earth's heroes - and so they quickly form a strike team to stop Doom's machinations. But will they succeed? And what happens when some begin to welcome their new Emperor with open arms, clamoring for One World Under Doom? Marvel's biggest and most shocking event ever begins right here

MS MARVEL #4 $3.99

(W) G. Willow Wilson (A) Nico Leon (CA) David Lopez
