Thor 427 Unpublished COVER - Ron Frenz

"The Homecoming!"

The British government sends Excalibur to learn the whereabouts of the Juggernaut, and run into the Wrecking Crew. Loki, Ulik, and the Enchantress are also interested in the Wrecker, but for reasons of their own. Eric and Jackie go on a date, making Susan jealous. Thor and Code:Blue race to the scene of the battle, and the Wrecker causes his new abilities to make Excalibur see Thor as the Juggernaut. Shadowcat then turns Thor intangible, phasing him into the concrete and leaving him there.

This is one of two tightly penciled Thor cover prelims by Ron Frenz that I picked up. I asked Bob Layton to ink them for me and they both came out awesome! If you look at the published covers you can see some differences from the unpublished version. But in both cases I think I of prefer the one they didn't go with.
