Fantastic! #72

In "Thunder in the Netherworld! [Part 1]," Thor [Donald Blake] wages a furious battle against Hades, his rage shaking the very foundations of the Netherworld. With Hercules still bound by a dark contract and Tana Nile making a fateful decision, Jane Foster is sent on a journey she must never return from—while Cerberus, newly awakened, prowls the shadows and The Crusher looms as a mysterious force in the underworld’s depths.

In "And a Scourge Shall Come Upon You! [Part 2]," Dr. Strange, stranded in the perilous realm of the Million Perils, battles disorientation and a nameless beast within a hollow sphere, while on Earth, Victoria Bentley awakens to find herself torn across dimensions—caught between worlds, unsure if Baron Mordo still controls her fate. When Strange hears a desperate cry, he finds Victoria in the grip of a monstrous ant, and together they confront Nebulos, a strange alien entity who claims their struggles are part of a greater design.

In "The Legions of: The Living Lightning [Part 1]," the Hulk, after rescuing a downed pilot, is captured and manipulated by the enigmatic Lord of the Living Lightning and his extremist faction, the Living Lightning. With his strength now twisted by mind control, the Hulk turns his fury toward an army camp, setting the stage for a clash of wills and lightning-fast action.
