Thor #181

In "One God Must Fall!", Thor’s battle for identity reaches a fever pitch as the real god, disguised as Loki, escapes Mephisto’s grasp with help from the Warriors Three and Sif—only to return to Earth and face his doppelgänger, who’s wreaking havoc in Thor’s likeness. Stan Lee’s gripping script, brought to life by Neal Adams’ dynamic art and Joe Sinnott’s sharp inks, captures the clash of divine wills as Thor outsmarts Loki in a desperate showdown that hinges on a single, fateful moment. The cover, a striking collaboration by John Buscema, Marie Severin, and John Verpoorten, perfectly frames the stakes: two gods, one hammer, and a fate hanging in the balance.
