Can Sif assimilate to life on Midgard with Dr. Don Blake? Thor's complicated relationship soon becomes even more so with the arrival of Dracula. Will Sif become the Lord of the Vampires' latest victim, turned to an undead existence of bloodsucking? And how will Jane Foster's return complicate matters? It's a love triangle, Asgardian-style! Plus: An Annual adventure gorgeously drawn by Bob Hall, a never-before reprinted THOR graphic novel and a host of material from the fan-favorite OFFICIAL HANDBOOK OF THE MARVEL UNIVERSE! Collecting THOR (1966) #328-336 and ANNUAL #11, and MARVEL GRAPHIC NOVEL: THOR - I, WHOM THE GODS WOULD DESTROY.

West Coast Avengers artist Bob Hall also penciled Avengers, Champions, Defenders, Marvel Team-Up, Super-Villain Team-Up and other Marvel titles. He was a major art contributor to Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe: Deluxe Edition. At Valiant Comics, he worked on Shadowman and Timewalker.
