| Mighty Mightor | comment |
This Hanna-Barbera series was another of the studio's 1960s action lineup. Mighty Mightor featured the adventures of Mightor and his pet, Tog, in a prehistoric setting. Mightor is in reality Tor, who received a magic club for rescuing an old hermit from a rampaging dinosaur. He need only raise the club and yell "Mightor" to change into a prehistoric superhero complete with flight and Super-Strength.In his original series, Mightor shared a half hour with Moby Dick. | |

Ambiguously Human | |
| Mighty Mightor / int_225d8ff9 | comment |
Ambiguously Human: The main characters are human, but most of the villains are only vaguely so, looking like squat neanderthals with monstrous features (like fangs, pointed ears, red or yellow eyes, or green skin). Even villainous characters who are from the protagonists' village look inhuman (compared to the other villagers, who look modern aside from their clothing). Sometimes they're expressly called by names that suggest they're not human, like the Cavern Creatures. | |

Irisless Eye Mask of Mystery | |
| Mighty Mightor / int_28429e5c | comment |
Irisless Eye Mask Of Mystery: Mightor's mask does this, but in this case his transformation is already magical. (Little Rok has a homemade copy of the mask, and a second one for his bird Ork, but their eyes are clearly visible through the masks) | |

Damsel out of Distress: Then subverted when the villain of the latter episode grabbed Sheera, held the point of a spear to her throat, and declared "You can't hurt me, I have your women!"... and she immediately disarmed him, and she and the rest of the women proceeded to beat the crap out of him and throw him off his own boat. Mightor just stood and watched, smiling. | |

Dinosaurs Are Dragons | |
| Mighty Mightor / int_35c35a89 | comment |
Dinosaurs Are Dragons: Tog has wings like a dragon, which no dinosaur (birds included) is known to sport, and gets a fire-breathing upgrade as part of the club's power. The dinosaurs shown in "Battle of the Mightors" are also six-limbed, with four legs and wings. | |

Damsel in Distress: Sheera is kidnapped multiple times by the villains. In "The Sea Slavers", every woman of the village was captured and held hostage. Damsel out of Distress: Then subverted when the villain of the latter episode grabbed Sheera, held the point of a spear to her throat, and declared "You can't hurt me, I have your women!"... and she immediately disarmed him, and she and the rest of the women proceeded to beat the crap out of him and throw him off his own boat.

Clark Kenting | |
| Mighty Mightor / int_7175cb16 | comment |
Clark Kenting: To an extreme level. Mightor is Tor, Tor always disappears when Mightor appears. Tor has a pet dinosaur named Tog, Mightor has an identical-looking but slightly-larger pet dinosaur also named Tog who can breathe fire. Even in a prehistoric setting, it is unreal no one ever figured out this "secret". | |

Hollywood Prehistory | |
| Mighty Mightor / int_90cb022b | comment |
Hollywood Prehistory: Cavemen and dinosaurs both exist — even the hero's sidekick is a (winged!) dinosaur. "The Mightiest Warrior" centers around fighting one, and "The Island of the Dinosaurs" takes place (as the title suggests) on an island filled with them. Those aren't the only examples. | |

Transformation Sequence | |

Transformation Sequence: While not the fanciest one (it's mostly just a cloud of smoke obscuring the change), Tor has one where he raises the club and becomes Mightor, who flies off. The backgrounds change based on the episode, but it is the same sequence. | |

Super-Strength: Good God, is Mightor damn strong. At the end of "The Island of the Dinosaurs" he lifts up the titular island and flies it away, all by himself. Another has him being hit with "tons of stone" (as the villain claims), and Mightor lifts them all off of himself with one hand. | |

Expy | |
| Mighty Mightor / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Mightor is a rather blatant expy of The Mighty Thor, due to the show having originally been intended to be a Thor series. Magic weapon turns an ordinary harmless person into a hero of mythological proportions? It's all there. It's even in the name:Mighty Thor. The main difference is his backstory, which more closely resembles Captain Marvel than Thor. | |

The Load | |
| Mighty Mightor / int_e68b72 | comment |
The Load: Little Rok is this so much that Mightor himself even muses, "Oh no, not Little Rok again," in some episodes. To be fair, he seemed to get better as the show went on, able to at least act as a distraction while Mightor cleaned house. By the time of "The Missing Village" (the second-to-last episode), he was able to defeat several Stone Men and rescue both Tor and Sheera on his own. | |

Handsome Heroic Caveman | |
| Mighty Mightor / int_ef35791 | comment |
Handsome Heroic Caveman: The eponymous character was a prehistoric superhero with an idealized Captain Marvel-ish physique. He is the Older Alter Ego for teenage caveman Tor (no relation to the comic book character Tor, the Mighty Orbot named Tor, or Tor Johnson), who, along with his girlfriend Sheera (no relation to She-Ra), also fit this trope. | |
