Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Narrator : Although the City seems to be humming along as usual, the mighty Thor is troubled...

  Thor : I sense an aura of evil over the City. I feel it lurking, ready to pounce! I cannot pinpoint its presence... but whenever it strikes, Thor shall be ready!

  [flies away] 

  Narrator : Far below, in a shadowy alley...

  Loki : [watching the sky]  You would not be so confident, thunder god, if you knew your archenemy Loki was on earth once more!

• Narrator : And soon, with an indescribable rage, the mighty Thor storms across the rainbow bridge that links Earth with Asgard, and meets...

  Thor : Heimdall! Stand aside, Heimdall! I must reach Loki!

  Heimdall : Halt, son of Odin! Know you that your father has banished thee from Asgard? I have no wish to harm thee, but I have my orders!

  Thor : With what weapon could you defeat the mighty Thor?

  Heimdall : With this!

  [draws his blade] 

  Narrator : A sword of magic flames, against Thor's hammer. Which will triumph?

• Thor : There... there's something lying in the rubble... it's Jane! She was trapped in the explosion! She's barely breathing! Her pulse is growing weaker! She's dying! Jane... my darling... you can't die... you mustn't! Jane!

  [carries her out and places her on a bed] 

  Thor : She's sinking fast, but with all my power there is nothing I can do! Oh, mighty Odin, hear my words! In the name of Asgard, do not let this female perish!

  Narrator : Will Odin relent, and aid his son? Or will he let Jane die, putting an end to their forbidden romance?

• Thor : [to Jane]  When the time warp is lifted, adored one, I shall try to save you with every ounce of skill I possess! If I fail, then we both shall perish!

• Loki : If I were foolhardy enough to fight you, you would defeat me. But you cannot strike at one who stands quietly before you. your stupid honour would not permit it!

  Thor : Take heed, evil one, I have my breaking point!

• Narrator : Meanwhile, in Asgard, Balder the brave intercepts Loki...

  Balder : I'll deliver that message, crafty one!

  Loki : Can it be? My own peers turning against me?

  Balder : Nay, Loki, we are not thy peers. For none can match thee in villainy and deceit!

  Narrator : And so Balder rides furiously across the wild and savage chasm...

  Balder : I dare not fail! For it means the life of she who my dearest friend holds ever in his heart!

• Thor : How amused the immortals of Asgard would be to see the god of thunder changing wires like an Earth-bound electrician...

• Thor : I dare not follow, I cannot gamble with Jane Foster's life. But how could they have known to capture her? No one on Earth suspects that I love her... on Earth... aha! Suddenly I realize who my true foe is!

  [flies off] 

  Thor : There is only one who could be behind Hyde and the Cobra: LOKI! This time nothing shall save him from my vengeance!

• Thor : Battle will avail you not, my foolish friend! My uru hammer shall absorb the flames and hurl them back at you, like THIS!

• Thor : No power on Asgard shall prevent me from finding Loki!

• Thor : Back! BACK! Or answer to the fury of my hammer!

• Thor : She's sinking fast. All the might of Asgard cannot aid this mortal girl... but wait! There is still one chance! I have the power to make time stand still!

  [swings his hammer clockwise] 

  Thor : I will create a time warp which will envelop this house!

• [last lines] 

  Thor : Hail, noble Odin! Thy undeserving son gives thee thanks!

  Narrator : And with these words, the mighty god of thunder carries his love into the shining light of a new dawn!

• Dr Don Blake : You can go now, Jane, I won't need you anymore today...

  Nurse Jane Foster : You might need me if you decided to take a girl out to danc...

  [is pulled out a window] 

  Nurse Jane Foster : DON! HELP!

  Dr Don Blake : JANE! It was the Cobra... only Thor can save her!

  [changes into Thor] 

  Thor : There is no place the Cobra can hide, that Thor can't find him!

• Odin : Thor! You dare force your way back to Asgard, against my imperial command? Do you compel me to do battle, with my own son?

  Thor : A thousand pardons, noble father! I did what a warrior must do! An innocent life depended on my finding Loki! I could not shed that risk!

  Loki : Words! Naught but hollow words!

  Odin : Forbore! I have heard enough...

  Odin : [to Thor]  Back to Earth with you! I shall suspend my judgment until you return! Begone!

• Thor : Hyde! Cobra! Now you will feel the vengeance of Thor!

• Thor : Attack me at will! I'll crush you both!

• Mister Hyde : So, capturing this puny female was enough to bring you back to me! Stay back! Come no further if you value her life!

  Thor : Do not harm the girl! I make no move!

• Thor : My first concern is to free the girl! But then, hated one, I shall return and repay you!

  Loki : My shrewdness and cunning will ever be more than a match for your brute strength!

• Thor : The walls are reversing! They're closing in on me! But nothing can crush my uru hammer!

  [smashes the wall] 

  Thor : And nothing can keep me from finding Jane!

• Thor : What was that? Something slithered by, too fast to see!

• Thor : Now sleep, my beloved. I hear the two evil ones returning, and I must do battle once more!

• [a sword appears in front of Thor] 

  Thor : It is the glistening sword of Balder! Can this be the miracle I dare not hope for?
