Weird Comics #2
In "Thor Goes to War," a 1940 Fox comic, a civilian named Grant finds himself caught in the escalating conflict when his date, Glenda, sails for Europe—just as war erupts around them. After their ship is torpedoed by a Nazi mine, Grant takes on the mantle of Thor and uses his newfound power to clear a path to safety. The story, illustrated by Pierce Rice with inks by Arturo Cazeneuve, features a dramatic cover by Lou Fine, whose dynamic artwork captures the tension of the moment.
