Synopsis for "This Battleground Earth!"
Continued from last issue....
Thor, Sif, and Balder are in the office of Donald Blake, figuring out a plan to stop the Enchanters from attempting to take over Asgard for their own when they are interrupted by the Living Talisman. Before it can attack though, Thor manages to dispatch it by throwing his hammer through the energy construct. They then meet up with Magnir and Brona, the two Enchanters that have come to Earth to prevent the three Gods from interfering with their plan.
As they battle on Earth, in far-away Asgard, Forsung -- the remaining Enchanter -- unleashes the Living Talisman in Odin's throne room. The creature is able to fight off Odin's guards until it takes a blast from Odin's Sceptre of Power. With the Living Talisman seemingly destroyed, Forsung appears before Odin and challenges the All-Father to a fight to determine who is the rightful ruler of Asgard.
Back on Earth, Thor, Balder and Sif begin their battle against Magnir and Brona. However the two Enchanters cause the ground beneath Balder and Sif to break open, and then raise a part of the ground up into space so that they can fight and overpower Thor without interference. The two villains' superior mystical abilities and the power to change their forms to other elements give them an edge against Thor, forcing him to remain on the defensive.
Meanwhile, in Asgard, Odin and Forsung prepare their battle, both grabbing hold of the Sceptre of Power. The two shoot off into the sky, in a cosmic tug-of-war that causes massive destruction in their wake. Back on Earth, Thor manages to fight off Magnir and Brona. Because Forsung required as much power as possible to battle Odin, the power of both Magnir and Brona weaken, sending the floating piece of pavement they have been battling on to lower back down to the Earth.
There, Balder and Sif rejoin the fight where the aid Thor in quickly defeating the two Enchanters. With their enemies defeated they realize the horror that may arise should Odin lose his battle against Forsung, and Thor suggests that they all return to Asgard to learn the outcome of the battle.
