Tales of Asgard (Vol. 1)

™ and ©1968 Leading Magazine Corp.

When Marvel introduced Thor the Norse God of Thunder in Journey into Mystery in #83, he was soon accompanied by the entire Norse pantheon. (And with issue #126 Journey into Mystery became Thor) From #96-107, Journey into Mystery contained a backup feature, Tales of Asgard. These were stories from Norse mythology related with the unique Marvel perspective. Although Thor appeared occasionally, these tales primarily focused on Thor’s family and colleagues in Asgard, such as brave Baldur, loyal Heimdall, and all-wise Odin.

In 1968 these backup stories were collected as one-shot Tales of Asgard similar to other ongoing reprint books like Marvel Collectors’ Item Classics and Marvel Tales.
