Thor #173 - Jack Kirby art & cover

Jack Kirby

Thor v1 #173, 1970 - Ulik the Asgardian troll arrives on Earth, only to be hypnotized under the control of the Ringmaster. Admittedly, the story's circus setting is a refreshing change from the standard fare. Jack Kirby's art takes on a slightly whimsical tone because of it. One scene captures bustling activity and excitement of the venue (see interior page below) but sacrifices depth. Bill Everett's inks are adequate but seem more understated than previous issues.
