Thor #32

In "Je stärker ich bin, desto schneller sterbe ich!", Loki’s dark magic transforms Crusher Creel into the Absorbing Man, unleashing a new threat on Earth. When reporter Harris Hobbs, a patient of Blake’s, warns of the creature’s presence, Thor abandons a dinner date with Jane to investigate. As the battle between Thor and the Absorbing Man rages, Hobbs is injured and tended to by the god before being caught in the crossfire. Just as the fight reaches its peak, Balder intervenes, whisking Thor away to Asgard—where a shocking revelation awaits: Loki has taken Jane to the Golden Realm. With the fate of his beloved uncertain, Thor prepares to journey to Asgard to rescue her, leaving Creel to believe he has triumphed over the Thunder God.

In "null," Yarro Gort's ruthless ambition fuels a tyrannical regime, turning its sights on the Silver Surfer as its ultimate foe. With Shalla Bal wounded and the Surfer forced to send her back to Zenn-La alone, the weight of isolation and duty presses hard on the cosmic rider.
