Thor: Tales of Asgard (2011)

Dramatic cover art, eh? It’s a lie. The animation style isn't like that. I'm not saying it's badly animated, it certainly isn't, it's just different.
The story is about a young Thor, not yet a man. He’s impetuous and, frankly, a bit of a dick. Before he had Mjölnir he had a sword, but in order to get that sword he had to defy Odin and be even more of a dick.
It’s a story separate from the larger Marvel universe, so you don’t need any comic knowledge whatsoever to enjoy it.
There’s a few silly decisions made that could've been handled better, but characterisation is surprisingly good, so it wasn't a complete washout.
