Then, writer Kieron Gillen takes up the hammer and reveals just how intricately Loki has been scheming all along! But when the Trickster's plans spiral out of control - culminating in the Siege of Asgard and the return of an ancient evil - it's up to Thor and his fellow Asgardians to save two realms! Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 1,144 pages, full color. Rated T+ Cover price $125.00.
