In honor of THROG, what we can look forward to

[sherkahn.insanejournal.com]

Since we do not have any designated week per se, I open the forum to Rain of Frogs week, starting with images of the Frog that commands the thunder and rain... THROG!

LockJaw & the Pet Avengerswill be released this week, and we can look forward to seeing this kind of action.
Some pics from the legendary Simonson run, Thor #363-#366

Loki lays out a clever trap, used to amuse himself by turning Thor into an amphibian through the kiss of a grateful damsel.
(If a kiss turned him into a frog, I wonder what actual SEX would have resulted in?)

Thor goes into mansion, can't get any help from other Avengers, and then makes it to central park, where a war of the species is going on between rats and frogs. The rats think he is one of the local. They find out, to their chagrin, he is not.





Thor has adventures saving the frogs that have adopted him, but he must return to Asgard.

Thor finds his mighty hammer, cared for by Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder, his loyal goats.
And then we get this scene of awesomeness...

...and frogs can change their sex.

That explains where Loki got the idea.

Umm. No, they can't. Some male frogs exposed to pesticides are hermaphroditic as the pesticides mimic hormones, but that's the closest thing. (Fish can change their sex though).

Poor Kermit! He wanted to do stuff with Miss Piggy's old outfits.. wait, what are we talking about?

[volksjager.insanejournal.com]

Um yes they can.

I did see that Frontline on Americas water ways. The genetic variance is 6 legged frogs and such if thats what your refering to, Yikes...

Yes, you are correct and I was wrong (to a degree) there are a couple of species of frogs that have been found to change sex (as far as I can find only African Reed Frogs), but I know of no bullfrogs (or green frogs) which are the likely species of Thor Frog, that have changed sex.
