“While a Universe Trembles!”

In "While a Universe Trembles!", Thor and reporter Harris Hobbs arrive in Asgard just as Odin confronts Loki and the Absorbing Man, banishing both to the void beyond. As Hobbs tries to document the moment, his camera mysteriously fails—leaving him stranded in a world far beyond his understanding. Meanwhile, deep in an Asian jungle, a tribal witch doctor uncovers a Norn stone, awakening a power that could reshape fate itself. Written by Stan Lee and brought to life with dynamic art by Jack Kirby, with inks by Vince Colletta and lettering by Artie Simek, the cover by Kirby and Colletta captures the cosmic scale of this mythic turning point.
