Stranded on the alien world of Mallus, Thor Odinson—God of Thunder—awakens in the frozen land of Norsca, separated from his closest allies and facing unfamiliar trials. Seeking rest after his triumphant clash with Thanos, the Thunder God lends his formidable strength to the hardy people who inhabit this harsh frontier. Yet Thor's unchecked power draws the attention of four jealous deities who covet his ability to roam the realm unbound. These vengeful gods refuse to see Norsca thrive under his protection and will wage war to claim dominion for themselves. Thor Odinson must stand ready. The ice-bound land's salvation rests upon his shoulders, and axe work—brutal and uncompromising—awaits.
