Ep.83 – The Mighty Thor No. 140 (1967)

The Growing Man

Jun 24, 2019

This time on the Couch: Mike, James, and Shée once again visit the terrifying imagination of Jack "King" Kirby with 1967's The Mighty Thor no. 140! Returning to Asgard after killing a bunch of trolls, Thor asks his dad to turn him back into enfeebled doctor Donald Blake and let him go protect the morons of Earth again, because someone has to be the dumbest Avenger. It's a good thing Odin agrees, because Kang the inter-dimensional warlord has left a challenge that only a jock God who solves all his problems by smashing them with a hammer can deal with: A purple-helmeted guy that gets bigger the more you hit him! ...Huh. How about that? Also, is Thor getting sexually involved with a human the equivalent of bestiality, and why doesn't that seem to bother him even a little bit?
