“Into the Blaze of Battle!”

In "Into the Blaze of Battle!", Thor races against time to expose Loki’s cheating in the Trial of the Gods, with Odin giving him just 24 hours to prove the trickster’s deceit. On Earth, Thor arrives just in time to confront the Enchantress and the Executioner, who are tormenting Jane Foster, before flying to Vietnam—where he’s drawn into the conflict of a war-torn nation. There, he rescues a young girl named Kim after her family is lost to the violence of opposing ideologies. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Jack Kirby, with inks by Vince Colletta and Carl Hubbell, colors by Stan Goldberg, and letters by Artie Simek, the cover by Jack Kirby and Vince Colletta captures the storm of action ahead.
