Marvel by the Month

#051: June 1965 - "The Day of the Destroyer"

Episode Summary

This episode is packed with so much Thunder God content that we should have released it on a Thursday! Not only does Thor conclude his battle against the unstoppable Destroyer, he also finds himself in Olympus tussling with Hercules in his very first annual! Plus, the Warriors Three (Hogun, Fandral, and Volstagg) make their debut in "Tales of Asgard." And if that's not enough for you, Peter Parker graduates from high school and meets the Molten Man on the very same day, and John Severin makes his Marvel Age debut in the pages of Nick Fury: Agent of SHIELD!
