Walt Simonson's run as both writer and artist on this series is still considered a high point. Beginning with the Surtur saga and introducing an unlikely partner in the alien warrior Beta Ray Bill. This story tells of grand adventures distinctly echoing classic myths while firmly set in the history and context of the Marvel Universe.
Thor was later replaced by the mortal Eric Masterson when he was gifted with Mjolnir. Although the true Thor would return, Eric Masterson would continue to fight as Thunderstrike. However, this was soon followed by cancellation with Thor's death in the Onslaught event. |
