Thor lost and it was decided by both companies.

During the initial meetings and scripting didn't Busiek say that it was pretty much prima facie that Supes would beat Thor in the encounter?

What in the world. Dmills...where have you been bro?

TBH man I haven't been inordinately busy or anything. I just got a little weary of the VS forum so I mostly lurk now.

Yup, everyone in both companies agreed that Thor would lose. Honestly this was the reason the first JLA/Avengers series in 1980 couldn't be published. Marvel refused to let Thor lose to PC Superman and the whole project was scraped!!!

Yeah. IIRC Busiek seemed bemused by the notion that anyone would think that the outcome was ever up for debate.

Thor is such a fragile flower.

😂

But he shrugged off Korvac's lasers, they didn't hurt him or anything.....

It was Korvac before he had PC so meh. Dying from frost bite? That's a new low even for Thor.

combing over thor's history for low feats is sad af

Was just re-reading Korvac saga and stumbled on that. Thought it was funny.

That's not actually part of the Korvac saga in the Avengers sense of the word, that's from a Thor book (Korvac's second appearance methinks?).

I was re-reading Korvac's entire chronology, GoTG, Korvac Quest and such. Pretty good read all in all.

Yes, they really did some interesting stuff with an incredibly obscure character there. Korvac Quest is much better than Citizen Kang as far as Annual tying crossovers go.

(Those annual crossovers were mostly crap)

I only liked Evolutionary Wars and Korvac Quest among those annual events. Eclipso: The Darkness Within is far better than anything marvel came up in terms of annual events though.

I'll check it. Even though it was a novelty that never caught up talking about that format kind of makes me want to read it, it must be the ongoing/event fatigue catching up with me. Minis are always a good break from that stuff.
