Charlton’s version of Thor was a normal Scandinavian man who was weak and cowardly compared to his Viking brothers. He discovered a cave that glowed with strange light. Bathing in these rays caused Thor to grow strong. He also discovered a hammer-shaped object in the cave which, when thrown, shot lightning and destroyed any obstacles. Thor became a hermit, living in the forest. When invading Huns attacked him, he threw his hammer, incinerating the foes. His actions became legend and the basis for myth.
