    Annoying

    Mostly I find this Journey Into Mystery run of Thor stories to be annoying. Take this one - Dr. Zaxton, a colleague of Dr. Blake's (can't imagine he'll end up being a villain with a name like Zaxton) creates a duplicator ray. He duplicates Thor.

Whether it's Thor's powers being used to water crops, or Dr. Blake somehow making an invin...
