About this Collection

This volume launches the Marvel Masterworks line for Thor, reprinting the God of Thunder's earliest Silver Age adventures from Journey Into Mystery #83-100. It collects the debut of the Donald Blake incarnation of Thor, along with his initial battles against foes like Loki and the Destroyer, as crafted by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Joe Sinnott. The 1999 edition features a cover by the ComicCraft design studio, marking the beginning of Thor's solo series in hardcover format.

In "The Stone Men from Saturn!", Stan Lee and Don Heck deliver a classic Thor tale where Mister Hyde’s twisted scheme takes a shocking turn—kidnapping Don Blake and Jane Foster, he uses a submarine as part of a dangerous plan that throws Thor into a deadly dilemma. When Jane intervenes to protect Don, her actions inadvertently lead Odin to question her worthiness, testing the very limits of her connection to the divine. The cover by Jack Kirby and Joe Sinnott captures the epic clash of myth and menace, making this a must-have in any Marvel Masterworks collection.
