Fantastic! #65

In "The Sands of Death," the Living Tribunal stands at the center of Stonehenge, its three faces of Equity, Revenge, and Necessity united in a grim verdict: Earth must be erased for the greater cosmic balance. As the Tribunal prepares to utter the Incantation of Oblivion, the sorcerer Strange pleads for a chance to confront the menace himself, offering to stop it before the mystical Hourglass runs dry. With time measured in the shifting sands, he departs into the ancient stones, the fate of the world hanging on whether he can succeed before the final grain falls.

In "Whom the Gods Would Destroy [Part Two]," the rivalry between Hercules and Thor reaches a breaking point as they clash over Jane Foster, with Odin’s wrath fueling the conflict. The All-Father, still furious over Thor’s betrayal, strips half of Thor’s power and grants it to Seidring, shifting the balance of strength in the battle. As the clash unfolds, Hercules stands poised to claim victory—yet the true cost of this divine contest remains uncertain.
