Thor searches the interior of the sun,
hoping to recover the lost Mjolnir; Freyja his mother advises him
instead to prepare for the coming War of the Realms but Thor still
depends on a mighty weapon to face the enemy when he invades Midgard.
Freyja takes Thor on a journey through space to Earth; on the way she
reminds him of his own greatness and tells him he already wields his
greatest weapon (see below). On Earth they rescue the people of
Hawaii from a massive tsunami and it's when Thor parts the waves to
lead survivors to safety that Freyja tells us what Thor's greatest
weapon is: his heart, and he will rescue Midgard. She ponder a moment
from many centuries ago when Thor showed her the grave of Erika the
Red, the human warrior woman he once loved, telling her he heeded her
advice to find love, not worthiness.....
A flashforward: millennia from now,
Thor's granddaughters the Goddesses of Thunder gather at his bedside
as he recovers from having defeated Doom and saved Midgard. He is
muttering about the War of the Realms and how Midgard will need all
the gods it can get....
In the Bronx, the convalescent Volstagg
is panicking from the call of the War Thor and Jane Foster must
sedate him. Soon after, Jane receives the news from her doctor that
her cancer is in remission....
Sif and Valkyrie duel with swords while
discussing the fall of Vanaheim to Malekith's attacks....
Freyja and Balder the Brave await
Thor's arrival at his boat where he promised to come after he
regained control of Earth's weather. (Thori the murder dog is there.)
But he hasn't come, while Odin broods on his throne....
In Jotunheim, Loki broods on his own
uselessness and the failure of his scheme to defeat Malekith. He is
resigned to meeting the fate he deserves—as Malekith's assassins
enter the cave behind him....
Malekith stands at the portal from
Svartalfheim to the other realms, rallying his hordes for the
invasion of Midgard....
And Thor, again searching the sun,
swears that Midgard will survive and if not, Thor will join Mjolnir
in the fire—and as he heads for Earth, something moves in the
flames behind him....
Give that special marvelite a timely gift
