The Mighty Thor / Journey into Mystery: Everything Burns #[nn]

In "Everything Burns Prologue," Thor faces the consequences of his past actions by submitting to the Doom Ring, a trial of penance that tests his worthiness. As Balder returns from Limbo to stand with the Asgardians, Freyja’s revelation of her pregnancy with Odin’s child adds a profound new layer to the fate of Asgard. Written by Matt Fraction and illustrated by Barry Kitson, with inks by Jay Leisten, colors by Wil Quintana, and letters by Joe Sabino, this pivotal issue sets a haunting tone with a cover by Alan Davis and Mark Farmer.
