Team Thor is a very short comedy set during the events of Captain America: Civil War. Thor, the Asgardian god of thunder, lives in a small flat in Australia with an ordinary office worker named Darryl. Thor wants to help with the fight between Captain America and Iron Man, but neither side asks him to join. He spends his time sending strange emails, visiting a school, and building a wall of clues about the Infinity Stones. The mockumentary style makes Thor look proud, childish, and out of touch while Darryl tries to keep daily life under control.
The story gets its laughs from placing a mighty hero inside a normal home. Thor treats his fame and powers as reasons to avoid a normal job, pay rent, or handle simple chores. Darryl does the practical work and reacts with growing frustration as Thor turns their flat into a base for his new team. The short gently mocks superhero pride, the loose Avengers group, and Thor’s need to be included. Its message stays focused on friendship, daily life, and playful superhero satire.
