The Mighty Thor #5

In "The Demon Duplicators!", a mad scientist holds Dr. Blake hostage to force him into building a machine that can replicate living beings—pushing Thor to his limits when the device creates a perfect duplicate of him. With his magic hammer out of reach, Thor must outwit the copy while the scientist's own experiment spirals out of control. The twist comes when the scientist accidentally duplicates himself, leading to a shocking fall and a surprising survivor.

In "The Tomb of Tut-Amm-Tut!", an ancient pharaoh's desperate bid to evade his rival by entering stasis centuries ago sets off a deadly game of cat and mouse—only to find his enemy has done the same, waiting in silence to face him when time finally catches up.

In "Defying the Magic of... Mad Merlin!", the ancient sorcerer Merlin awakens after a millennium, his mind set on conquering the world with his vast magical powers. With Washington D.C. as his battleground, he clashes against Thor in a spellbound showdown that turns iconic landmarks into weapons of chaos.

In "Frederick Fenton's Future!", a wealthy and overconfident man uses his fortune to construct a time machine, hoping to steal the secret of eternal life from the future. His journey leads him to a world where humanity has abandoned Earth for a distant paradise, leaving him stranded with no way back.

In "Save Me from the Lizard Men!", a stranded human crash-lands on a distant planet where the native lizard-like inhabitants mistake him for a spy from a neighboring world of shape-shifters. As he tries to signal for help, he's forced to make a desperate choice—stealing a life pod to escape, even as he realizes the truth about his own origins.

In "The Lava Man," Thor faces a fiery foe summoned by Loki, who claims Earth's dry surface for his hidden people. With Odin's decree forbidding Thor from loving Jane Foster, the god of thunder must confront both the monstrous Lava Man and the growing distance between himself and the woman he cares for.

In "Tales of... Asgard!", the ancient origins of Asgard unfold beneath its gleaming halls, where the Well of Life birthed Ymir, the first Frost Giant, and Buri, the first Norse God. From Buri’s line came Borr, whose sons—Odin among them—would one day stand as guardians of Earth, watching over the world as humanity stirs into being.
