Silver Surfer #86

Part 2 of Marvel's sprawling 1993 crossover "Blood and Thunder" lands here, and the cover by Ron Lim and Keith Aiken makes the stakes immediately clear: a furious Thor, hammer in hand and red cape streaming, hurls himself at a snarling Silver Surfer across a cosmic asteroid field while a smaller armored figure — Beta Ray Bill — watches from below. The cover's starburst says it all: the Surfer faces the Mighty Thor "for the life of Beta Ray Bill," promising a clash of titans with serious consequences on the line. If you're following this multi-title saga through the Marvel cosmos in 1993, this is one chapter you won't want to skip.
