Owner's Description
This issue was gorgeously signed in silver by inker Sam de la Rosa August 26th 2020.
The cover is another classic done by Bill Sienkiewicz with beautiful lightning surrounding Loki who is suggested to wield Mjolnir by the title and cover art.
The story retells Thor's origin and then offers an alternate reality where Loki is awakened earlier by a tear of Heimdall. Loki journeys to Earth and finds the stick that is Thor's hammer. He flings it into a forest to be hidden. Monsters find Donald Blake and slay the mortal since he did not find the stick that would become Mjolnir. Odin in his grief sends down lighting to slay the monsters that killed Donald Blake.
Thor finds himself in Hela's realm. Odin and warriors of Asgard travel to Hel to reclaim Thor. Warriors of Asgard with Heimdall seek out Mjolnir that was hid by Loki and battle his dragon. They do find the stick of wood that is Thor's Hammer and return to Asgard to find it burning in flames.
Sif takes Mjolnir to Hel and sacrifices herself to free Thor. With Balder they return to Asgard and save it from Loki. Odin has demonstrated his own sacrifice by losing an eye.
"What If Loki Found Thor's Hammer First?" Script by Peter Gillis, pencils by Kelley Jones, inks by Sam DeLa Rosa. Bill Sienkiewicz cover. Cover price $1.00. (description by mycomicshop.com)
