This week we're back to that same ice planet with those same stalagmites, and the same old gang in the penultimate chapter of the Thanos/Mangog saga! Thor vol. 2 #24!!! It's an all-action issue, with everything that entails...plus Tarakis turns into a bird! (sort of)  This issue courtesy of Jurgens, Romita Jr. and Giordano! It's Orikal-icious!

This week it's back to the Iron Age as we cover the "Ballad of Svipdag" courtesy of Snorri Sturluson. It's a sort-of love story, sort-of travelogue, except with giants!
