The Surtur War

Writer/artist Walter Simonson's groundbreaking Thor run starts here!

Walter Simonson's Thor raises its banner high and stands with the series' Stan Lee/Jack Kirby glory days and then some! With truly cosmic stakes, a new character worthy enough to lift Mjolnir high in Beta Ray Bill and a villain of deadly cunning in Malekith, Simonson launched his epic run with a powerful art style and a majestic narrative that reminds the reader why the legendary tales of Asgard are so compelling. After handling Malekith's ice-cold plot with the Casket of Ancient Winters, Thor must head into the fiery pits of Surtur's realm for a war that may mean the very end of Asgard. Simonson's four fabled years of storytelling with Thor starts here!
