Solicit Synopsis

THE RETURN OF DONALD BLAKE!

The “Prey” arc starts here! Once upon a time, a mortal man bore within him the spirit of a god. With a crack of his cane upon the ground, the Mighty Thor would appear! But it’s been years since the King of Asgard required his human ward. Where has the good doctor been all this time – and what does his reappearance mean for the God of Thunder? Donny Cates and Nic Klein journey into a mystery left unsolved since 1962!

Notes

• It was revealed in this issue that Thor would go to the Elder-Sleep where he could commune with the spirits and the old dead kings whenever he used Mjolnir to switch places with Donald Blake. When Thor most recently traded places with Blake, the elder spirits and the ancient kings who turned their eyes from him looked like three of Those Who Sit Above in Shadow.
• A trailer was released by Marvel on YouTube to promote this issue:
