Thor : L'intégrale #1983-1984
This French collection opens Walt Simonson's legendary run on Thor, gathering the issues from 1983-1984 that introduced the cosmic warrior Beta Ray Bill, the fire demon Surtur's schemes, and the Casket of Ancient Winters. It features the battle for the hammer Mjolnir, the first appearance of the alien horse-herder who proves worthy to wield it, and the return of Malekith the Dark Elf as a major threat. Key characters include Thor, Odin, Sif, Balder, Loki, and the Enchantress, with art by Simonson and others.
In "Malemort," Walter Simonson and Geneviève Coulomb deliver a gripping chapter of Thor’s saga, with Simonson’s dynamic art and inks bringing to life the clash between Beta Ray Bill, Thor, and alien demons. As Sif guards the ships carrying Bill’s people, the two gods push forward to confront the source of the threat, while on Asgard, Volstagg spins tales of Balder’s misadventures and in New York, Loki schemes with Lorelei to undermine Thor. The cover by BIT completes this bold, mythic journey.
In a tale of legacy and trial, Beta Ray Bill recounts his origins while Odin sets a fateful duel to decide who truly deserves the might of Mjolnir—Thor or the warrior from another world. As the stakes rise, the clash of gods and alien demons looms, testing strength, honor, and destiny.
In a tale bridging myth and metal, Thor and Beta Ray Bill find themselves at odds once more, their clash leaving both heroes unsettled. When Odin commands the Dwarves to forge a new hammer, Sif must face their champion—Throgg le nain géant—while René Baroque arrives as an unexpected guest, drawn into the storm of ancient rivalries and forged destinies.
In a storm of celestial fury, Beta Ray Bill, Thor, and Sif battle alien demons threatening the realms, their clash echoing across the stars. While Sif guards the ships carrying Bill’s people, the two gods push deeper into the heart of the invasion, seeking the source of the darkness—unaware that on Asgard, Volstagg spins tales of Balder’s misfortunes, and in New York, Loki plots with Lorelei, his schemes weaving through the shadows.
In "Le passé n'est que cendres," Thor returns to New York, taking on the secret identity of Sigurd Jarlson as he faces a new threat unleashed by Loki and Lorelei. Meanwhile, in Asgard, Odin sends his ravens Huginn and Muninn to investigate the source of alien demons, while Balder, under Karnilla’s watchful eye, retreats into exile.
When Thor answers a mysterious call echoing across the cosmos, he finds himself drawn into a forgotten saga of the North, where the legend of Eilif l'oublié stirs once more. Amidst the icy realms and ancient sorcery, a long-forgotten warrior awakens, and even as Lorelei and Karnilla plot in the shadows, Thor must face a past that refuses to stay buried.
When Odin sends Balder on a perilous mission to confront Loki, a shadowy web of deception unfolds in New York, where Lorelei ensnares Thor—disguised as Sigurd—in a spell of seduction. With Trolls stirring in the wilderness and secrets buried beneath the surface, the fate of Balder hangs in the balance.
In "La chasse sauvage," Thor races to protect Roger Willis, who's unwittingly seized a coveted artifact coveted by Malekith, while Balder ventures into the desolate reaches of Asgard's borderlands. As the wild hunt begins and ancient forces stir, a sand demon emerges from the dunes, and Surtur's shadow looms ever closer.
Thor and Roger Willis prepare to enter the realm of Féérie to rescue Mélodi, while Balder fights a sand demon in Asgard to save a young woman, and Odin calls forth the Asgardian host.
In "D'ombre et de lumière," Thor’s dual struggle unfolds across realms: in New York, Roger Willis embarks on a mysterious quest for a hidden relic, while Lorelei draws ever closer to Sigurd Jarlson, weaving her enchantments with quiet determination. Meanwhile, Balder journeys through Asgard, and the shadow of war stirs as the Black Elves and the warriors of Muspell move in silence, their intentions veiled.
In "Dettes d'honneur," Thor returns to Asgard with Malekith, still entranced by Lorelei, as Odin convenes a council to discuss the growing threat from the fire giants of Muspell. As the chambellan of Odin recounts the ancient tale of how the All-Father once faced Surtur at the dawn of Midgard, the weight of past deeds begins to echo in the present.
In the frozen heart of New York, as winter descends like a curse, Odin rallies the Ost d'Asgard for a final stand against the rising threat of Surtur. With the fate of realms hanging in the balance, Balder is entrusted with a perilous mission: to persuade the reine des Nornes to join the battle, before the fires of Muspelheim consume all.
