Thor #263, cover

Marvel Comics, September 1977
John Buscema (1927-2002) and Joe Sinnott (1926-2020)
India ink on Bristol board.
Thor struck down by Odin's Wrath.
Thor lies on the ground, crushed by Odin's Wrath, a force born of his own father's power.
Buscema creates a powerful composition here, in which the god of thunder seems, for once, overwhelmed.
John Buscema drew Thor for many years, and his mastery of anatomy is evident at first glance. Joe Sinnott handles the inking here, with the meticulous finish for which he is renowned.
The cover is complete, featuring the Marvel Comics Group cartouche, the 30¢ price, the Comics Code Authority logo, and Thor's medallion.
