Nope it was in an issue of Black Panther he mentioned it. He is strafed by a plane in the one i'm thinking of, it's not the one above he has his old costume not that mockery, I rmember that one though as well. The other issue is a Silver age starring the FF and Daredevil I have in U.K. pocketbook reprint but it doesn't give the original issue. It could be from the FF or Thor. DD is obviously a guest in it. Thor gets shot by a hood in the arm and has to wear a sling the whole issue.
It was bullets from a jet fighter where he mentioned welts, however IIRC the artist didn't draw any welts, so if you take him at his word, the welts must have been so small that the human eye couldn't see them.
As for the sling, if true; I doubt it was due to a bullet because I have been in multiple 'is Thor bulletproof' debates and I have never seen it mentioned.

He is shot in both the ones i'm thinking of. It's not the plane above it's an older issue. Thor is grounded and it's a more old fashioned plane. That one pays homage to the one I mean.

Odd that I've never heard of either of these before, can we see some scans?
Not really, as the pocketbook is at my parents house with most of my comics before 15 - 20 years and the other one is even older from my youth it's at least early 70's. It may be older, it's obviously where the writer for 480 got the idea from. I think if people search around enough we'll get them.

Thank you!
That's the Black Panther one where he is shot. I didn't explain that well in my early post. Anyone else got the others!!

The writer later admitted that he didn't know much about Thor and that it was supposed to be a BAKG capable of firing through vibranium.

So? It's canon as are the other examples. The one with the FF and Daredevil, i'm sure it's a bank robber wearing a hat which places the original story as late sixties.

Not at all we now have two of the 4 mentioned. Let's find the other 2.The silver age ones.
Neither example that has been posted had the bullet do any real damage, and one of them had the writer admit to not knowing much about Thor and stating it was supposed to a BAKG capable of firing through vibranium.

Yea, it's canon that neither did any real damage and that one wasn't even a normal bullet.
Even Superman has been hurt by special bullets before.

Made of Kryptonite.
One was a normal bullet with Thor. Remember Thor spins that hammer for a reason. To block bullets. He is scared of them and admits they bring him out in welts.
Questionable durability, add that to his glass jaw........
Let's hope someone has the older comics as well!
