Thor #344 - Walt Simonson art & cover + 1st Malekith

Walt Simonson

Thor v1 #344, 1984 - Thor appears only in cameo as this tale centers around his fellow Asgardian, Balder the Brave. Tasked with bringing a message to Loki, Balder must survive deadly obstacles along the way. Meanwhile, Loki has accepted an offer from the dark elf Malekith. Walt Simonson's cover employs a radial layout with a color palette that emphasizes the fallen figure. It's a little too loosely rendered for my tastes, but the artist's story pages generally meet expectations. Check out the terrific sequencing in the interior page below. This is 20 of 55 Thor issues by Simonson. /// key 1st appearance Malekith
