History & Lore
This issue is part of the final arc of Thor Volume 2 and ties into the larger Avengers: Disassembled era. The storyline is notable for embracing the idea of Ragnarok as an unavoidable cycle and setting the stage for Thor’s apparent death shortly afterward. These closing issues marked the end of the 1998–2004 run and led to Thor’s temporary removal from Marvel continuity, making this period significant in the character’s long-term mythology.
