Michael Straczynski, and Olivier Coipel. The main story comes from the current Thor creative team, Donny Cates and Nic Kelin, and depicts the aftermath of Thor’s battle with the God of Hammers.

Asgardians and beings from across the cosmos have gathered to say farewell to Thor’s father. Their memories serve as the basis for new stories from Thor’s past creative teams.
