Loki eats up so many stories it makes you wonder how the movies are gonna match THIS show's level of craziness in the future. Anything's possible with franchises that never end, having retcon after retcon... after retcon. In this show's case, the time-travel rules from Endgame are basically non-binding yet seemingly pre-determined (apparently everything was meant to happen in a certain way) by an all-encompassing authority by three space-lizards (which the show addresses later on).

This show is an entertaining series of one-ups on Marvel's tendencies to take things to the nth-tier of scope and effect. Granted the show doesn't always succeed at delivering on its promises, Tom Hiddleston proves himself a more than worthy leading-man, with or without Avengers to fight. Though the series might go a little too big at times for its own sake, it's good to see Loki trying to vary things up with the multiverse and its infinite variations of Loki himself: the best variant is Richard E. Grant's take on the character I reckon (and probably one of the show's most under-used facets). Loki tries to push what I'm calling 'The Rick and Morty Envelope' even further than it's gone before, though the results are going to impact the viewers differently. The multiverse idea is just getting tapped into on Loki, which makes me wonder how it's gonna be paid-off in Doctor Strange 2 and beyond?

Overall Loki is a nice detour from the usual MCU-fare we've gotten used to seeing: and because this show has a second season on the horizon we can expect things to get even crazier than the first time around.

Loki gets 4/5 stars.
