HOTW- The Mighty Mightor

 

  • [Opening narration: "Mighty Mightor"] 

    Narrator : While on a hunting trip, Tor and his faithful companion Tog rescue an ancient hermit from a Tyrannosarus rex. Grateful, the old man gives Tor a club which possesses great powers. Tor raises the club and he becomes Mightor, and Tog is transferred into a fire-breathing dragon. Together they become champions of good and the nemesis of evil!

    Mightor : MIGHTOR!

    Thus begins a terrific cartoon that was supposed to be based on Thor, the Marvel Comics version.  When that fell through, HB had Alex Toth do a redesign and turned him into the first caveman superhero.  He-Man would later ripoff the concept en masse for his useless toys.  Too bad it wasn't nearly as exciting as The Mighty Mightor was!
