First Appearance: The Mighty Mightor (Hanna-Barbera for CBS Saturday, September 9, 1967)
Powers/Abilities: Superhuman strength, able to fly. His club can fire force rays.
History: In prehistoric times teenage caveman Tor and his dinosaur companion Tog are out hunting when they come across an old hermit being endangered by a Tyrannosaurus Rex. They rescue him, and in gratitude, he gifts Tor with a magical club. When Tor holds the club aloft he is transformed into a superhuman version of himself, Mightor, while Tog is transformed into the fire-breathing dragon. The little brother of Chief Pondo idolises this superhero (without knowing who he really is), and often adopts a similar costume, while Pondo's beautiful daughter, Sheera, is Tor's love interest.
(Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law) It appears that somehow Mightor has survived into modern times. These days he is a judge, often presiding over cases involving defence attorney Harvey Birdman. He still wears his horned helmet and carries his club though.
Comments: Created by Alex Toth.
Tor was voiced by Bobby Diamond, while his adult form, Mightor, was voiced by Paul Stewart
Mightor got to team up with Space Ghost in the second season of that worthy's show. This was part of a several episode saga designed to use Space Ghost's established popularity to showcase a number of new Hanna-Barbera characters. The character had thirty-six episodes of his own show. Mor recently he has turned up as a judge on Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law.
Thanks to various people, including Carycomix and Redhawk, for correcting me as to Little Rok's relationship with Mightor and Sheera.
