Thor #621

Thor #621 brings Matt Fraction's "The World Eaters" arc to its seventh chapter, with a cover by Pasqual Ferry that wastes no time setting the stakes. The God of Thunder is shown straining mightily against an enormous, gnarled dark form — Mjolnir blazing with golden energy as Thor pushes back with every ounce of his strength, red cape whipping around him dramatically. It's a visually arresting image that captures the sheer physical struggle at the heart of this 2011 Marvel series.
