DeFalco/Frenz Retrospective: Thor #430

 



Writer: Tom DeFalco
Penciler: Ron Frenz

Synopsis: Thor teams up with Ghost Rider against the Wrecking Crew.

Comments: It's never really followed up on, but Susan and Jerry tell Eric that they think he has a drinking problem, explaining his behavior since merging with Thor. Jerry knew Thor's dual identity as Sigurd Jarlson, so it could have been a way of him covering for Eric, but this was never followed up on. 






This was another cliffhanger cop out. In the last issue, the Wrecking Crew was confronted by Mephisto and this issue picks up revealing they teleported away. 



Loki takes the power of the Wrecking Crew. He understandably views it as his power since the Wrecker was unintentionally granted the power by the Norn Queen who mistook him for Loki in his first appearance in Thor #148. I like how Ghost Rider has bones on underneath his jacket.
