Let Sleeping Dragons Lie

1
- Let Sleeping Dragons Lie! -
(Crow crying)
(Crow cries)
The signs are now, great Loki.
The planets are
emplacing the sky.
Soon the chains which
binds you to the Earth's heart
will be burst as thunder
of the Dragon rousing.
Excellent Raven-Dark.
Work the spell, to
wake the Dragon,
and shatter this world,
that holds me captive.
And, will its curse, dark
lord will be lifted as well?
When next you leave
the dragon's mouth
you will not transform
into a bird or ill woman,
but retain the form
of man that you now.
But, walk the Earth
as a man again.
I will begin the spell
at once, great Loki!
Fool!
Work your lackies' magic,
and let me loose again.
Crack the planet that
dares to chain me!
Wake the Dragon,
so that it may set free!
Pick up a few things,
okay. No biggie.
Come on! A few things?!
Why didn't she give me the Encyclopedia
and say: "get me artvarb forzolofile"
Low-lights special at aisle 9
Kumquats at aisle 12, cocktail
wheat is on sale in aisle 21.
Mighty Max, please go
to aisle 7, frozen fruits.
What?!
Ah, I guess I'll get a
rain-check for this stuff.
Whoa! Should have
brought a sweater.
Hi Norman.
- Mighty One.
Allow me!
Thanks Virg'.
Hey, hey! Pretty handy.
He he, feel them feather dusters.
Uh hum, yes. Quite.
Okay, gotta shoot. What is new
and horrible in the world today, ah?
The signs are
not entirely clear.
All that is certain is that a cursed
necromancer named Raven-Dark,
last of the Vikings sorcerers, is about
to say a spell of catastrophic proportions,
and only the Mighty One
Can stop him. I know, I
know. Yada, yada, yada.
I am beginning to see a pattern
in this Mighty One business.
So where is this
Raven-Dark dude hang out?
He resigns within a cavern
of the Dragon of Doom.
Wow! A Dragon too?
Cool! I should bring a Camera
with me on this expedition, hehe.
and the cavern is eh
-At the top of these cliffs, Might Max.
Eh, I could have
guessed it if I wanted to.
Ah, Virg,' are you sure
there is no Portal to the top?
My feet are killing me.
Ah, the Doom Dragon.
We meet again, old Worm.
The years have clothed you
with Dirt and Shrubbery, great Lizard.
I hardly recognized you.
Who's he talking to?
Norman is addressing the
Doom Dragon, Mighty One.
You should fall as
always foul beast.
The Dragon in the Cave?
The Dragon IS the Cave, Mighty One.
The WHOLE Cave?!
Suddenly I don't
feel very Mighty!
Norm, you know this guy?
- I fought him before.
They even wrote a song about it.
What? Puff the
Magic Dragon? Ha ha.
Hurry! I sense the Sorcerer.
The Spell near its completion.
We must not let that
happen, or Earth is in peril.
Boy Feels kinda creepy just
strolling in a Dragon's stomach.
Not something I'd normally
do voluntarily understand?
The Hammer and Helmet of Thor!
I thought I lost these forever!
Still fits.
Wait a minute. You were Thor?
Yes, I served Odin.
As you well know, Mighty
Max, the powers occasionally
can attract outside talent to
maintain the cosmic balance.
From Dinnuk again,
where there is no grass.
Hurry!
- Dimmurgiva, where the fires rage,
Arise now, arise Ori, Ginar
commands, Raven-Dark demands.
What's he doing, redecorating?
Good heavens, he's
waking the Doom Dragon.
But, that will mean
the end of the world.
Well, this must be
stopped at once.
Allow me.
Stop! by Odin, Necromancer!
Hey!
Ahh!
Norman!
Ahh!
-Ugh!
Who dares to intrude upon me
in the midst of my workings?
Nobody here but us chickens.
You are waking the Doom Dragon.
Perceptive.
You may stay and watch, in which
case you will be among the first to die.
Or you may attempt in
panic and useless flight.
And postpone your
end by moments.
Uh, I'll have to flip
a coin on that one.
Virg', why do I get the feeling that
waking the Doom Dragon is a bad thing?
When the Doom Dragon
arises, he will rupture Odin's rift,
cracking the world asunder.
Uh-huh. Sort of "have
you driven a fjord lately?"
Uh, Rave? Mr. Magic
Guy? he he, hi.
Why would you want
to do a thing like that?
I mean, you got to
live on this planet too?
The same foul powers
which entranced the Dragon,
trapped my master Loki, and doomed me to a
bird's body if I leave this cursed cavern.
There are other worlds, and
I have little love for this one.
And so, an end.
Now, where was I?
Ah yes, the unbinding.
I'll have to ask you to desist
with your spell tasking, of course.
Ugh!
My people use the entrails of birds
to define the future. Chicken man.
Unrectner of Duneefalheim.
The moments past
the sun don't shine.
I think we're definitely
running on ideas here.
And time Mighty One. The
spell is almost complete.
Raven Dark.
Why is the dragon not awake?
What is delaying the spell?
A minor annoyance dread, Loki.
I have only a few
runes to complete.
Finish that! Fool.
That voice is familiar.
Yeah, I thought so too.
Free me!
Skull-Master!
-Skull-Master!
Hey, Ravi', that's not Loki
you've been growling to.
You're getting
reamed by a master.
Skull-Master!
The Chosen One!
Raven-Dark.
Wake the Dragon.
Now!
It is finished!
Ha, ha, ha, ha!
Free, free, at last!
Somebody light matches?
It is getting rather
balmy in here.
Dragonfire!
Run away!
(Might Max pants)
Wait! Virgil! Norman!
Oh, maybe I'll just wait
here until the end of the world.
Hurry Mighty One
or we'll be lost!
Mighty One?
We lost him.
I'm awake!
Enough for ten thousand years.
I'm hungry.
I believe you chipped
his tooth a little.
Only a start.
We have him on the run now.
Where are you, thunderer?
We have old business to discuss.
Thunderer, thunderer,
thunderer.
Would you test your
metal on me again?
What will they call
you now, Lancelot?
Little John.
They call me Norman.
Skull-Master!
Figures.
Ouch! Cuz' starting a war isn't
good enough, he wants me dead too.
Ha! Got you again!
I could burn you where
stand little thunderer.
But I want to hear you
squeeze as I swallow you whole.
Swallow this.
(Doom Dragon cries!)
My master want's
you head and your hat.
Perhaps I'll give him
both in a single package.
Ah yeah, it's good to get that
holiday shopping done early.
Quickly!
Oh man, this guy's gonna
toast me if I don't think fast.
(Doom Dragon growls)
Would thy freez, thunderer?
I'll rip you like I
rip this mountain!
Toast for worm?
Surrender now and spare
yourself needless pain.
I certainly hope that the Mighty One
is handling things better than we are.
Slow as ever. ungainly beast.
Slow and stupid.
(Doom Dragon growls)
it would be stupid to
destroy this miserable world,
without leaving you
alive to witness it.
Helplessness top stop me.
Cowardly worm!
Had enough?
How do I convince him to get
out of that hole and try to kill me again.
I believe that I could
offer a suggestion.
Liar!
You blaspheme against my
master in the midst of his temple.
I'm telling you, your
master is Skull-Master!
And he's a top ten slime
ball who doesn't care a lick
about you or your cave god Loki.
More lies!
My great lord is grateful
to his obedient servants.
Oh, cry me a river.
Is that why you're the
last one in the world, huh?
What's your dread
lord done for you lately?
He has lifted the curse that
transforms me when I leave this place.
No he hasn't! And I
know just how to prove it.
One meter down and a little to the left.
Got it.
Strike it now.
Odin, guide my hand.
You said
- I strongly advise,
that you vacate your
current location at once.
Curse you, thunderer!
You You hurt me.
Very good, Norman.
I believe he wishes
to kill you again.
Thank you, Odin.
You're mad, Raven-Dark?
You throw like a girl.
I hope this big frisbee does more
good for me than it did for you.
Woo!
Six flames over Reykjavik.
Isn't it fun? And I
wasn't so scared.
Mighty one.
I sincerely hope that you
have a plan of some sort.
Plan? Moi?
Come on, you know
I just improvised.
Now, boy, your time is just
Ow! A bird?!
Still cursed!
He doesn't look so bad to me.
Rather, handsome crewmange.
And for my next trick
Betrayed!
Bingo! You got that, right, Beeki.
Looks like Loki lets you down.
I hear tell, though, that revenge
is pretty sweet this time of year.
Revenge!
Hey, great idea.
And I know just how
to tick your old boss off.
Time is short, Mighty One.
Tell me about it.
Look, we got four, maybe five
minutes before Skull-Master or Loki or,
whoever gets the last laugh and
turns his plan into an asteroid belt.
So if you want to get the
last laugh, listen to me.
Okay, you got to put Godzilla over here
back to sleep before he busts up the world.
(Cries) Got to get back inside.
Can't read magic
if I'm not a man!
The prospect of gaining entrance
through the dragon's mouth
this time is highly unlikely.
No duh! Virg'!
Hey, there isn't a portal that
leads into the dragon, is there?
You know it doesn't
work that way.
However, it is just possible.
Now here's what you must do.
And don't.
Come, Mighty One.
You too sorcerer.
Where are we going?
Shopping.
One Mississippi.
Two Mississippi.
Three Mississippi.
Hey! No pets
allowed in the store!
Oh, chill, dude, will you?
These are my seeing eye birds.
I can't make intelligent
purchases without them, okay?
Timing will be crucial on this, Mighty One.
We three must step through this
entrance portal here, just as Norman
lures the Doom Dragon to the
exit portal at the base of the cliff.
When the dragon's belly occupies
the same space as the exit portal,
we will have only seconds
to step through into the beast.
How will we know when to jump?
Norman and I have this
entire operation synchronized.
We have both been counting down,
and if my calculations are
correct, and they always are,
Norman should have
enticed the Dragon into
the correct position exactly
37 seconds from now.
72 Mississippi,
73 Mississippi, 74.
Oh, great stupid worm!
Has your long sleep
made you so cumbersome?
Ha!
Gotcha!
75 Mississippi, 76 Mississippi, 77.
Whoop!
- Burn! insect!
Stupid Lizard have
made me lose my count.
Unless Norman has lost his count, we
should be ready to jump in 17 seconds.
Revenge!
(Cry!)
Hold that thought!
13 seconds!
Ah!
I always hated Math.
No more counting
thunderer, just as well.
Since you are also
have no more time.
Time, Mighty One!
Jump now
Ah!
(Doom Dragon cries in pain)
(Raven-Dark cries)
Boy, that was some
kind of curse, alright.
Oh!
And, unlifted by
my lying master,
I'll put his foul
lizard to sleep
and chain the wretched
to darkness forever.
Cool!
Loki!
- Skull-Master, actually,
but who cares at this point?
The chosen one!
Raven-Dark!
Why is he still alive?
Liar!
The curse isn't lifted,
mad curse still remains!
Ooh, he But thanks to you,
my Doom is about to disappear!
(Skull-Master laughs)
Excuse me, but the only thing that's
taking a hike around here is you, buddy.
Time to tuck in the
big lizard, Raven-Dark!
You wouldn't break this spell, lacky!
I doubt it. Consider the price it
takes to quench the magical flames.
Price? Price?
Who said anything about a price?
Only blood can quench this fire.
Oh, no! Don't look at me!
The blood mobile came
to my school just last week!
My blood! My soul!
Wait, wait, wait, wait,
but that means?
It is the way of the cosmic
balance, Mighty One.
Leave this place.
This is not for your eyes.
Wait! There must be another way!
Raven-Dark!
Watch this!
- No!
No! What has happened?
I have just woken!
No!
Hey, hey!
We made it!
And no chicken tandoori!
Mighty One!
Virgil!
Hey, Normie, you missed me, you big log!
Raven-Dark paid the ultimate
price for trafficking with evil gods.
Well, I'll tell you, those evil gods
are worse than insurance salesman.
He acquitted himself well
in the final moments, though.
As did you, Norman.
Dooris malletus served
me strongly again.
Argh!
Wow! Nice toss, Normie.
You chucked that like a pro.
Well, of course.
Didn't you know that one
of the old Icelandic names
he used to go by was,
the Hurler?
The Hurler?
The Hurler!
Oh boy, they must have really
know how to party back then, huh?
The Hurler!
Oh.. give.. me.. a.. break!
This week we went to Norway,
a country that is 1,100 miles long
and in some places
only four miles wide.
Did you know Norway's called
the land of the midnight sun?
Well, that's because a third of the
country is above the Arctic Circle,
and from May to July,
the sun never sets.
Sounds kind of confusing, huh?
See you tonight!
Today is his
dinner or breakfast.
See you next week!
