Thor #151 — VF-, 7.5
April 1968 • Marvel Comics • Kirby / Lee • Destroyer cover • Inhumans Part 6
This is peak Kirby Thor — big, loud, dramatic, and cosmic in all the right ways. The cover alone tells you everything you need to know: Thor charging the Destroyer, city in ruins, pure Marvel mayhem. Inside, Odin finally restores Thor’s powers, Ulik and his Troll army storm Karnilla’s realm, Balder’s back in the mix, and Loki stays exactly as shady as he should be. Classic late-’60s Marvel at full volume.
On top of all that, you also get the next chapter in the original Inhumans saga, with Triton dropping into the human world and immediately getting himself into trouble. This one rides that perfect line between Asgardian legend and early Marvel sci-fi — the exact sweet spot that made this era great.
Maj. Picto’s Grading Notes (VF-, 7.5)
Bright color and solid gloss with light edge wear and mild corner stress. A few light spine ticks, but no major breaks. Interior pages are cream to off-white, clean and securely attached. A really good-looking mid-grade copy of a killer Kirby issue.
