How It Happened

The Villains really worked in an incredibly clever fashion!

Cobra is able to blind Thor with a special poison that's strong and can affect even Asgardian strength. It seems that it was able to weaken the God of Thunder and then a new threat took the lead, making the situation much worse for Thor.
It also brought out Gray Gargoyle, who was able to turn Thor to stone from this sneaky tactic that worked to stop the God of Thunder in its tracks. It's no surprise, everyone's got something unique.
In a shocking and decisive blow! Mr. Hyde comes to an end of a Thor's story, by completely crushing Thor's body into pieces.

The moment you learn this you realize "Immortal Thor" is getting super dark but this has fans talking! If this wasn't enough! We might have new Villains who actually have become new gods!

If that's not an impressive feat, the real drama is what's happening with those in the "Immortal Thor series. What stands out is this amazing connection between how a world (a fictional one), Midgard will get some incredible power through "Immortal Thor."

Thor has a whole lot to lose but the reality that we learn in the series that if you want true godlike power you have to be part of an epic story.

The real heroes, in this world, now might be seen as even more powerful now!

The "Immortal Thor #17 story really emphasizes this new twist. Fans who want to know about these epic powers. This really dives into a dark story.
They are on their own to be worshipped and maybe even create an entirely new world based around the "Gray Gargoyle"
You see, there was an impressive ability to make these villains seem almost Godlike because they did the unthinkable.

And with "Immortal Thor." The whole concept really explores the power of storytelling and just how it can really create some magical moments!

If you haven't heard about these bad guys or don't really know much about them, they've been around for a while!

The series, and its creators were able to find some truly fascinating characters.

Mr. Hyde. The scientist in this comic story! That turns into the person who has a supervillain power that gets him into trouble time and time again!
Cobra. This character who comes from the classic Silver Age comics is full of exciting moments. This character that was bitten by a snake with a twist!
Radioactive Man. A scientist who turned into this powerful hero, this time with radiation, is another compelling baddie in this series!
The Gray Gargoyle, Paul Duval. Who doesn't like a scientist with some superpowers? And this villain. Is also known for being someone who had the ability to transform their body into stone!

These characters are not just throw-aways. In "Immortal Hulk" they played such a critical part in the success of this story. You might have recognized "Radioactive Man," in a super well-known group of villains. They come together with a collective force of badness to form something pretty interesting!
