“The Thunder God and the Thug!”

In "The Thunder God and the Thug!", a desperate drifter is drawn into a high-stakes gamble when a dishonest mechanic offers him a fortune to modify a car—only to renege on the deal. With the promise of a way home to the stars now in his hands, the drifter takes matters into his own hands, turning the vehicle into something far beyond its original design. Written by Stan Lee and Larry Lieber, with art by Sol Brodsky and inks by the same, this 1963 adventure crackles with classic Marvel energy, all framed by Jack Kirby’s dynamic cover and Dick Ayers’ bold inks.
