Thor's 15th appearance of 1980 (his 3rd in 3 weeks)
His 410th of all time.
What the Bill Sienkiewicz cover promises the 22 page Doug Moench story delivers.
The first of the 7 multi-panel Thor-graced pages Sienkiewicz is tasked with producing is a prime example of his mastery of his craft.
The cover was embellished by the much-missed Joe Sinnott and the interior pages were finished by Pablos Marcos.
