Toranos is
coming, inexorably…
…and seen by
Sif, guardian of the Rainbow Bridge. This was at the request of Beta Ray Bill,
to confirm Loki’s summons from Thor, Bill wonders if he is still worthy to aid
Thor….
Storm is on the
planet Arrako when she is summoned by Thor’s ravens; she declines, citing her need
to remain on her own world but Thor sends a dimensional wind to blow her to him
on the Gray Area of the Moon. She is angry and demands to be returned to
Arrako; when Thor tries to explain the matter, she calls down lightning on him.
Twice. So, he commands the lightning to stop striking him. Storm, who commands
more than storms, drops the atmospheric pressure of Jupiter on Thor, crushing
him to the ground and causing his ears to bleed. But Thor can do anything he
needs to so he stands up and hurls Mjolnir at Storm. She catches it and, being
worthy, she is transformed into Thor. Then she can see Toranos, who has arrived
in power, and she understands Thor’s urgency. He mentions a plan and, as
Toranos attacks, Loki appears. Thor asks Storm to throw Mjolnir at Loki; she
does and the God of Stories opens a portal bringing Beta Ray Bill to the Moon.
Bill catches the hammer and is transformed into Thor. Loki touches the hammer
and he becomes Thor. They hurl Mjolnir into the sky and it is caught by Valkyrie
(Jane Foster) arriving on Mister Horse. Together they are the Thor Corps, ready
to face the enemy….
