The Mighty Thor Animated Series On The Way

Marvel Animation is bringing yet another one of The Avengers to the small screen with their own animated series.  In addition to Wolverine, Iron Man, and Black Panther, Marvel has 26 half hour episodes planned for Thor on the small screen.

“The Thor animated series is an all new-property featuring one of Marvel’s longtime favorite characters: the heroic thunder god of Norse mythology. The animated series will follow Thor as he defends his mythical home of Asgard against fantastical villains, fiendish hordes, winged creatures and angry giants. The show takes place in various wondrous worlds: from mountainous landscapes to places of icy mists and fiery voids. Thor will be surrounded by many companions on his mission, every one sure to add to the action and adventure of this series.”

The release goes on to point out that they plan on launching an animated series alongside all of their tentpole film events.  So, I wonder if we’ll get an Ant-Man animated series at some point.  That would actually be pretty cool, heh.
