Thor #29

In "Die Macht des Donnergottes!", Thor faces a deadly duel against the Cobra and Mr. Hyde as Jane Foster’s life hangs in the balance. With Odin’s heart beginning to thaw thanks to Balder’s quiet influence, a desperate mission is set in motion: Loki must deliver a plea for help to Hardol, the mystic healer beyond the molten chasm. Though Loki is delayed by the gods’ distrust, Balder steps in—racing across perilous realms to secure the cure that could save Jane.

In "Baldur der Lichte," Balder’s compassion—shown when he leaves the battlefield to save a fallen bird—sparks a divine reckoning. Though Odin commands his execution, the very earth and creatures of the realm refuse to harm him, turning Balder into an invincible figure bound by his own mercy.
