With Lee and Kirby as permanent creators Thor takes off here. The Thor/Don Blake/Jane Foster is still pretty derivative of Superman, but the touches of mythology are what makes this shine. Highlights include Odin teleporting every single man, woman, and child off of the Earth (!) so they won't be injured when he, Thor and Balder fight Surtur. That is boss as hell.
Mr. Hyde and Cobra keep showing up, and Thor emotes with the best of them over his love for Jane. It's cheesy, yeah, but that earnestness is part of the appeal.
