Thor tries to free himself from his bonds, but cannot. The Soul Survivors tell him the origin of themselves and of the Doomsday Star. They are the ones that intercepted Odin. They take Thor's group to see him and are using Odin as a battery and have almost drained him dry. Back in Asgard, the second Thor leads Balder and Karnilla into Asgard, then assaults them. Thor is speaking to a very weak Odin when Odin apparently dies. In his rage, Thor begins to tear through all the Techno-trackers with ease, as Hogun, Volstagg, and Recorder arrive. With nothing else to do, K'rll places himself in the Spirit Mold and gives form to the remaining Odinpower still in the batteries, creating a beast made of pure Odinforce "SOUL-EATER".
