Synopsis for "Where Walk the Immortals!"
Loki hoping to use the Hulk as his pawn to take over Asgard, captures the unconscious body of Bruce Banner and transforms him into the Hulk and transports him to Asgard. There the Hulk fights his way past Heimdal, and enters into Asgard, where he gets into combat with the Warriors Three. Taking note of the battle raging on Odin summons an army to also best the Hulk.
However, during the battle with the Warriors Three, the Three realize that the Hulk doesn't know how he ended up in Asgard and that the creature is probably being used as someone elses pawn. When the Asgardian army arrives, Fandril manages to make them stop. When Loki arrives to call the Warriors Three cowards, they refuse to be goaded into battle by Loki, suspecting him to be responsible.
To find out what Hulk is doing in Asgard, the Warriors Three ask him to follow them to see Oldar the Oracle. However, as the Hulk is jumping over the bottomless chasm, Loki strikes Hulk with a spell not wanting the Warriors to know the truth. The spell causes Hulk to change back into Banner, and fall into the chasm. This story is continued in Incredible Hulk #102.

Notes
- With Marvel Comics no longer under a contracted publishing deal with DC Comics to have their titles published, Marvel was able to publish more titles. As a result, Tales to Astonish had been discontinued to make way for independent titles for both the Sub-Mariner and the Hulk. The Hulk would appear in his own title The Incredible Hulk which would continue publication using the Tales to Astonish issue numbering, the first issue being #102. However, as the Sub-Mariner would have one more serialized story completed for a half-book format, he and Iron Man (who had his next story in must the same condition when Tales of Suspense changed to Captain America) would appear in a one-shot titled Iron Man and Sub-Mariner #1 before appearing in the premiere issue Sub-Mariner #1.
- A second volume of Tales to Astonish would appear in 1979 and last 14 issue and would reprint a number of the Sub-Mariner stories (although altered) from the original Tales to Astonish run. A third volume of Tales to Astonish would appear in 1994, but would only be a one shot. It would feature a story featuring the first group of heroes to appear in the pages of Tales to Astonish: Henry Pym, the Wasp and the Hulk.
- This issue is reprinted in Essential Hulk, Volume 2.
