The Mighty Thor: The Ballad of Beta Ray Bill #[nn]

In "Doom!", Thor answers Nick Fury’s urgent call as an alien vessel approaches Earth, setting off a chain of events that awakens the powerful warrior Beta Ray Bill. When Bill proves himself a match for Thor and claims Mjolnir, he’s unwittingly pulled into Asgard by Odin—mistaking him for the real Thor. Written and illustrated by Walter Simonson, this 1989 issue captures the mythic scale and raw energy of the Asgardian saga, with Simonson’s dynamic art and bold storytelling bringing both cosmic stakes and personal tension to life. The cover by Walter Simonson perfectly frames the moment of confrontation and destiny.
