This anthology issue features multiple superhero and fantasy tales. One story involves a sorcerer who transforms men into reptilian creatures before being defeated, with his prisoner freed and the city of Zoom lifted into the sky. Another narrative centers on Dr. Mortal and a heart-less fiend, with characters discussing the fiend's origins as a formerly human individual. A third story depicts the Birdman encountering primitive or alien beings in a rocky landscape, with scenes of conflict and survival involving cave dwellers who rely on the bird-man for sustenance.

In this classic 1940 adventure, Thor, the son of Odin, selects a mortal named Grant Farrel to carry on his legacy, granting him the full might of the God of Thunder. Now bound by divine power, Grant transforms into Thor—wielding lightning, strength beyond measure, and a destiny far greater than he ever imagined—while navigating a world where myth and man collide. With Glenda by his side, the new Thor must master his godlike abilities before they consume him.
