The first season of what has been the most astounding Marvel series so far concluded today with a startling, universe-altering revelation that ties into not just the upcoming MCU film Ant Man-Quantumania but also the next Doctor Strange installation-The Multiverse of Madness.

Loki starts off with our beloved God of Mischief stranded in the 'Time Variance Authority' (TVA) after escaping with the Tesseract after the events of Avengers one and the Battle for New York.

There, he meets Mobius (Owen Wilson) an officer of the TVA who enlists his help to track down another Loki 'variant' from a different timeline, the brilliant Sylie (Sofia Di Martino).

The series is as much about Tom Hiddleston as it is about Sofia Di Martino as the two actors have sparkling chemistry on-screen which has the audience swooning for more. Owen Wilson and a surprise guest antagonist are electric in their supporting roles.

The makers pay rich homage to Marvel comics, with multiple versions of everybody's favorite Norse God making an appearance, including a brilliant Richard E Grant as Classic Loki and a ridiculous alligator version of Loki who has taken the internet by storm and is now known by the moniker, Croki! 😊

We learn more about Loki's motivations and internal conflicts in this series than any movie appearance before and director Kate Herron has fleshed out every aspect in painstaking detail. Was he always meant to be a perennial villain or is there hope for redemption for this scallywag? Is there a method to his mischief and madness? These are the questions the series poses not just to its protagonists but to us, the audience as well.

The introduction of multiverses and alternative timelines opens up so much more narrative scope for the MCU that the possibilities are endless. Cannot wait for the continuation of this story arc in Ant Man 3, Doctor Strange 2 and the now confirmed Season 2 of Loki-in what can only be described as a multiverse of entertainment that Marvel is building for us.

Highly recommended. This one is a must-watch!
