Stories

Behold! The Land of Doom! · 19 pages
Thor’s party face overwhelming odds as they battle the gigantic and immensely powerful Masters of the Black Stars. Things look bleak until a discovery is made. It seems that, over the years, the planets under the protection of Rhun have become lifeless husks. With this knowledge, the Black Stars’ mission is deemed futile and ends. Thor and company are allowed to depart.

Publisher’s description

Thor has never faced foes like these before! The Masters of the Black Stars easily overtake our hero- what's a Thunder God to do when his divine powers prove useless?
