In this very special episode, we go back to the Iron Age for an EPIC piece of Norse lore, as we read one of the most famous of the myths, "Thor's Journey to Utgard" - Thor, Loki, Giants, eating, drinking, and breaking the leg of a goat! It's all in there!

After two weeks of sturm and drang, it's time to have a little fun, Silver Age style! And we do that by looking at Thor #153 (June 1968), a Lee/Kirby classic that pits Thor in a knock-down drag-out with the insidious Loki on the streets of NYC! We see Irish cops! Sif has surgery! Karnilla macks on Balder! Odin wears his most cumbersome hat to date! And Ulik just falls down a hole.
