Description
Thor and Hercules meet again, and Jane Foster has inadvertently driven a wedge between them by making Thor jealous. The two come to blows, with a semi getting trashed in the process. Hercules punches a hole in the street so that the two tumble onto the roof of a subway car. After they reach a station, they find a demolition zone where they can finish their "discussion" without hurting anyone. Meanwhile, Odin has reached a decision: Thor must be punished for revealing his secret identity to a mortal (Jane) and lose half his strength. Unwilling to mete out justice himself, he transfers the Odin Power to Seidring the Merciless, his favorite councilor, who simply points out of a window to carry out the sentence. Unfortunately for Thor, the loss of power comes at a crucial moment. Hercules topples an empty building onto him. His hammer, Mjolnir, saves him, but only barely. A final blow from Hercules drops Thor. The God of Thunder is beaten! A crowd gathers, and the talent scout (seen in previous issue) offers again to put Hercules in pictures; this time he accepts. Jane goes to Thor. Distraught, he tells her that he must regain his honor and is unworthy of her. As he trudges away, Odin (magically) tells her to follow.
