Thor, The Animated Series

A long time ago I mentioned that Marvel was planning on releasing a Black Panther and an Iron Man animated series in 2009. Well, it seems like Marvel Studios is also planning on releasing an animated Thor series.

The Thor animated series will consist of 26 half-hour episodes airing in 2010 after the Thor movie is released in theaters.

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.

I'm actually looking forward to this. I don't know much about Thor's background and I'm too lazy to read the comics.
