Synopsis for "The Coming of Kurse!"
Thor and Sif stop a bank robbery, and appear to be gaining celebrity status. In Asgard, Kurse beats his way past Heimdall, and plunges all the way down to Hel, where he demands Malekith. Hela tries to stop him but to no avail, and he beats her easily becoming the new master of Hel. Lorelei tells him that Malekith escaped to Earth, and he takes her there. Once there, Kurse sees Thor as Malekith and begins to attack him. As the new master of Hel and Niffleheim, Kurse calls forth dead monsters to destroy the one he believes to be Malekith.
