Thor annual #14 (Balder)Issue(s): Thor annual #14 (Balder story only) Review/plot: This story has Karnilla showing up for Nanna's funeral, which was mostly attended by woodland creatures. ![]() ![]() Karnilla then tells Balder that she feels bad about Nanna's death, and to make up for it, she's made a deal with Hela. On Balder's word, Hela will exchange Karnilla's life for Nanna's. ![]() But Balder declines that offer, and it does make him open himself back up to the idea of a romance with Karnilla ("Not now. Not... yet"). ![]() Of course, Karnilla knew all along that Balder wouldn't accept the offer, and in fact Hela was only an illusion. ![]() I'm still not convinced this was necessary - Balder's capacity for forgiveness is one of his prime characteristics, and Walt Simonson developed the tentative romance between him and Karnilla well enough without needing this - but i guess it smooths things over a bit more. And there's some nice fantasy style art from Bo Hampton. Quality Rating: C Chronological Placement Considerations: A footnote tells us that "This sad story occurs shortly afte the events depicted in T.O.A. from Thor #311". References:
