\"The Thunder God Strikes Back\"

In the last issueThorhad chased Mr. Hyde and the Cobra into a \"Heavy Machine Show\" that exhibited various large devices, one of which Hyde had used to grab Thor\'s hammer. This issue picks up mere moments after last issue\'s story, where Thor\'s 60 second time limit is rapidly running out. Causing a quick distraction, Thor manages to hide in the fleeing crowd of bystanders, just as he is forced to change back into Dr. Blake. As police surround the show building, Blake attempts to retrieve his walking stick from the machine, so that he may change back into Thor, but is unable to do so. When Mr. Hyde threatens to attack the crowd if Thor doesn\'t reappear, Blake offers to find Thor for them, if they retrieve his walking stick from the machine for him.

When the Cobra fails to retrieve it, Mr. Hyde rips open the machine and gives Blake his cane. Blake then charges into the crowd again, and uses their fleeing panic for cover as he changes back into Thor. During his battle against both the Cobra and Mr. Hyde, the police storm the building just as Thor has his foes on the ropes. Mr. Hyde manages to escape capture by changing back into his alter ego of Calvin Zarbo. After the Cobra is apprehended by the police, Thor goes searching for Mr. Hyde, little knowing that Hyde (as Zarbo) is following him.

Zarbo changes back into his guise of Mr. Hyde and attacks Thor when he least expects it, knocking Thor\'s hammer from his hand. Thor decides that he can defeat Mr. Hyde with his bare hands before the 60 second limit on his powers run out. Thor takes advantage of Mr. Hyde\'s temper in order to defeat him, and then turns him over to the police.

Changing back to Donald Blake, Thor returns to his office to spend time with Jane Foster. Jane storms out on Blake, after hearing over the television the story of how Blake \"betrayed\" Thor, by \"aiding\" Mr. Hyde and the Cobra in finding Thor during their battle. Slamming the door behind her, Foster leaves Blake wondering about the price he paid in order to defeat his foes.
