In "First Sign Part Two: Doin' the Zodiac Rag," Thor faces escalating threats as the Zodiac's schemes take shape, aided unexpectedly by the Enchantress and a surprising ally in Captain America. Mike Deodato Jr. delivers dynamic art with bold lines and vivid energy, while Marie Javins' colors heighten the cosmic tension, all under William Messner-Loebs' tight, character-driven storytelling.
