I wanted to follow up Captain America with another show from the Marvel Super Heroes show and Thor was the top suggestion for how surreal it got and boy was whittling down a video for this an arduous process. I'll give Grantray-Lawrence props for picking out some of the best of the Lee/Kirby run of Thor: Loki, Enchantress, Destroyer Armor, The Executioner, The Absorbing man, Hercules. They picked the best the run how to offer up until that point. I can appreciate a passionate, introspective powerhouse and modern adaptations just don't do the man justice in my humble opinion. Best part of the comics and this show though is that Odin is really bad at disciplining his kids and due to the cut-and-paste nature of the program it looks like Odin is big on hats and changes his hat constantly and no one says anything about it as they're used to it. How many different hats does Odin have? I don't know. No one knows.

Also the fact that they were begrudgingly forced to try harder to animate some things will never not be funny.
