History: (Unbeatable Squirrel Girl II#29) - Summoned by Loki to Chtt-Chrt, Hocky Hoof Hank, also called Thorse, was summoned to help protect Nancy Whitehead and he fought alongside other summoned heroes to fight the Silver Surfer, including Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Cosmo, Beta Ray Bill, Ego the Living Planet, Machine Man, Flatman, Moon Girl, Spider-Man, Doop, Sleepwalker, Throg, Strong Guy, Teen Cyclops, D-Man, Puck, Howard the Duck and Valkyrie. During the fight, the Surfer knocked Hocky Hoof Hank aside and Loki cast spells channeling the entities of Sal'tah'Goth, Sheila, Ulyagoth, and Wun'ulath. Soon, Loki returned the heroes magically to their home locations.
(Unbeatable Squirrel Girl II#30 (fb) - BTS) - After becoming friends with Squirrel Girl and her allies, Hocky Hoof Hank joined Squirrel Girl, Nancy Whitehead and Beta Ray Bill for some horseback riding, where he acted as Beta Ray Bill's horse. During their time together, a photo was taken of Beta Ray Bill riding Hocky Hoof Hank and Squirrel Girl and Nancy on their own horses.

Squirrel Girl II#30 - BTS) - The photo of Hocky Hoof Hank, Beta Ray
Bill, Squirrel Girl and Nancy was saved and thumb-tacked to the wall of
Squirrel Girl and Nancy's apartment so they could remember the time
they all made friends in space.
