It's been an unexpected thing, but I have found that I enjoy the
sequences with Thor as a little (though not relative to other
frogs) frog much more intriguing/interesting/entertaining than
the rest of the sequences.  The scene would shift to Asgard and I
would find myself saying, "NO, give me more of the frog stuff."
Why?  Perhaps there are things that I like about the character
that don't depend on his being an Asgardian god and perhaps the
story was well-written enough that it worked, even after
suffering such a severe change of environment.  In any case, it
makes me believe Simonson is doing an excellent job.  Go Walt!
