Matt, a descendant of Thor, discovers that the Norse apocalyptic prophecy of Ragnarök is true, and he has been chosen to fight in the final battle. Determined not to repeat Thor's defeat, Matt gathers the other gods' descendants in hopes of convincing them to fight by his side. The incipient series seems promising, but despite intermittent action, this first installment is ultimately pretty flat.
