Raganarok! – Watch! as that vicious wolf Fenrir Loki-son and wise All-father Wodin meet in a fearsome battle that will leave them both dead....

Ragnarok! – Marvel! as the powerful Thor Thunder-slinger faces, and defeats, the fantastical world-encircling beast Jormungand; only to die horribly himself from the creature's venomous bites...

Ragnarok! – Gasp! as the dread Frost Giants destroy all of mankind by freezing them, and then – Despair! as Surtr charges from the fiery realm of Muspell to destroy ALL the nine worlds with his blazing sword...
