“The Twilight of SOME Gods!”

In "The Twilight of SOME Gods!", Thor learns from the Eye of Odin about the cyclical fate of Asgardian deities, uncovering how the current pantheon arose from the ashes of a vanished generation—whose final Ragnarok left behind a blazing star that guided the three wise men. Written by Roy Thomas, Mark Gruenwald, and Ralph Macchio, with art by Keith Pollard and Chic Stone, and colored by Carl Gafford, this 1980 issue blends myth and mystery in a story that redefines the gods' legacy. The cover by Keith Pollard and Bob Layton captures the cosmic scale of this revelation.

The Eye of Odin tells Thor of how the current group of Asgardian Gods was created after the previous set experienced their own Ragnarok. The Ragnarok burned Asgard to brightly that it became the star that was followed by the three wise men in the Bible.
