History

Fox Comics

Weird Comcis

First appearance 1940 in Weird Comics #1 (April 1940) and disappeared after Weird Comics #5. (August 1940).

Believing that the world needed a defender, Thor bestowed powers, similar to his own, onto Grant Farrel. He uses his powers to fight crime against foreign armies (Nazi Germany and Gratnia), Bandit Chief Wong, Dr. Hsin and his henchman Mako.

Thor’s appearance changed over his five issue run, from blue helmet, blue trunks and cape to a gold helmet and red trunks and eventually no cape and helmet just Farrel with his original hair.
