Herald the Asgardians of the Galaxy and the Return of Throg

Look up into the stars! Amidst the cosmos, the Guardians of the Galaxy fend off the voluminous villains that threaten all of humanity. Back home, Earth’s Mightiest Heroes right the wrongdoings of malicious malcontents from one continent to another. Even on the streets of New York City, friendly neighborhood wall crawlers wrangle robbers in back alleyways. Is there no place the heroes of the Marvel Universe have left unwatched? According to the rats who frequent those alleys, they’ll nervously twitch and say one name: “Throg!!!”

The streets of New York and the walkways of Central Park weren’t always so safe – especially for a frog. Sure, Spider-Man, the Avengers, and all of the “big” heroes had something to do with it, but even those on high can miss some of the action taking place down below their general line of sight. Most animals know about the great “War in Central Park” between the frogs and rats, but rumor suggests that Thor himself came down as a great frog, who then slew nearly all of the vile rats. Brave Throg – then known as Puddlegulp – ran after the glistening green savior to warn him of the still-present rats following behind the transmuted thunderer. It was then that Puddlegulp found himself gifted with a sliver of Thor’s mighty Mjolnir. Some learned froggian scribes suggest Thor's mystical goats accidentally chipped the famed hammer, but no one could ever believe that! No, Puddlegulp was gifted the grand sliver, and with it, he became Throg! Slayer of Rats and the Fierce Fulminator of Frogdom!
