Synopsis for "This Hammer Lost!"

Thor dwells upon what he has learned about the Eternals and the Celestials after some long-lost memories were recently restored.[1] He decides that he will travel back in time to when the Celestials first appeared on Earth. However, once in the timestream, Mjolnir vanishes from his grasp and Thor is left in a land of fog and shadows. He is then confronted by the Space Phantom, who tells him that he is in Limbo. The Space Phantom reveals his origin and shows Thor his planet, Phantus, which has been pulled halfway into Limbo, claiming that Mjolnir has undoubtedly been attracted to the vortex to real-time at the planet's core. Thor agrees to help him save Phantus if he will help find Mjolnir. Once on the surface, they are repeatedly attacked by the warring Phantoms. The Space Phantom leads Thor to a complex containing a shaft that leads to the core. Thor leaps in, but it was a trap. The Space Phantom planned on using Thor's immortal body like a cork to plug the hole from real-time to Limbo so that Phantus would slip back into its own space/time continuum. However, what the Space Phantom didn't know was that, now that Thor was partially out of Limbo, 60 seconds had passed for him, so that part of his body has begun to change into his mortal counterpart, Dr. Donald Blake.
