I have no idea why I dreamed this

But I dreamed I came across the secret original run of Marvel comics about Thor, the issues where Lee, Lieber and Kirby had him act just as one would expect from the Norse legends. The other Avengers spent a lot of their time being appalled.

Why did I read that last word as "impaled" first?

That would be extremely cool if it actually existed!

I've always thought Thor would be a manic-depressive.

Wasp: AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!

Thor (on a bad day): What be the point of thy assembly? What is this quintessence of dust?

Didn't they do that (a little) with Hercules? I remember him being illiterate and having just the worst table manners.

I would pay good money for THAT version. Even though I (despite having real Nordic Ancestry) enjoy the Marvel bastardization also.

It would also be "interesting" if Thor's opponents behaved the way his traditional foes did. Like the Jotuness who tried to drown him in menstrual blood.

A full series might be a bit much, but it would certainly make for a hilarious What If? instalment.
