“Thorcules versus Hercuthor!”

In "Thorcules versus Hercuthor!", Thor and Hercules swap identities for a clash of titans—each disguised as the other, each fighting with their own brand of bravado. Written by Greg Pak and Fred Van Lente, with art by Reilly Brown and inks by Nelson DeCastro, this 2009 Marvel showdown is a playful, punchy battle of ego and strength. Cover by Rafael Albuquerque captures the absurd grandeur of the moment.
