    The Mysterious Mister Hyde! last edited by aphillips17 on 08/03/23 01:55AM View full history

    1. The Mysterious Mister Hyde! - Thor once again appeals to Odin to be allowed to marry Jane Foster, and again Odin refuses, but he grants that if Jane Foster demonstrates the qualities that would make her worthy, he will make her an immortal and the two may marry. Meanwhile, a man with a grudge against Dr. Blake comes calling; a man named Hyde!
    2. The Thread (text story) - Red's Water Front Shack was the same tonight as any other, only for some reason there seemed to be a sort of suspension in the air, as if something were about to happen.
    3. Stroom's Strange Solution! - He was the only one that could save his world, but he was forbidden to act! What could he do? What would you have done?
    4. Tales of Asgard: Surtur the Fire Demon! - There are no secrets from Odin, King of the gods! When he hears the trolls have joined with Surtur to rebel against Asgard, the mighty Odin personally invades the land of the trolls...

The art by Don Heck also looks rushed, as if preliminary sketches went to inking without any polishing. The Tales of Asgard sto...

    As Thor seeks Odin’s consent for him to marry Jane Foster a figure spurned by Don Blake returns to seek vengeance as the heinous Mister Hyde. Can Don Blake win Jane’s heart, Odin’s approval and stop the nefarious and super strong Hyde or is it all too much for one man with two alter-egos?
