Stories

The Sacred and the Profane · 23 pages
Jane, now Valkyrie, easily takes care of Blue Streak's thieves gang Fast Five, but fails to capture one of the stolen artifacts, Brunnhilde's sword, Dragonfang. At work, Jane is demoted to the morgue under medical examiner Dr. Gillespie. Jane, as Valkyrie, contacts the now-blind Heimdall, the god of seeing, to help find Dragonfang but he is suddenly run through by this same sword, wielded by the psychotic Bullseye.

Publisher’s description

JANE FOSTER STARS IN AN ALL-NEW NEW ONGOING SERIES! A new hero emerges straight from the pages of THE WAR OF THE REALMS! For years, you knew her as Dr. Jane Foster, one of Thor’s most steadfast companions. Then you knew her as Thor, the Goddess of Thunder, who took up the mantle when no other hero – god or human – was worthy. Now Jane takes on a new role as Valkyrie, guide and ferrywoman to the dead! But her days of punching are far from over. WAR OF THE REALMS master architect Jason Aaron and superstar Al Ewing (IMMORTAL HULK) join forces with rising star artist CAFU for the book that’ll have everyone talking!
