Dear Mr. Colbert,
I noticed your recent "Battle of the Gods" segment, and I must say I was pretty disappointed at you and your writers. About 2 minutes into this segment I have posted, you bring out a bracket of what I'll just continue to refer to as "Gods."
Now I definitely agree that Cthulhu should be seeded to immediately go the finals. That was good. HOWEVER. It should be noted, that there is NO SERPENT CALLED MIDGARD. It was correctly written on your bracket, the Serpent of Midgard. Midgard is one of the realms of Norse Mythology, It's located in the middle of Yggdrasil, the world tree. I believe the serpent you are referring to, is Jörmungandr, the World Serpent, one of the 3 children of Loki that were taken from him by Odin in order to restrain them (along with Hel, and Fenrisulfr).
If you would like to discuss why Jormungandr would totally smoke Quezacotl, probably because he's a serpent large enough to envelop the entirety of Midgard and has poison strong enough to kill Thor after take 9 paces at the battle of Ragnarok, I'd love to follow up on this.
