Loki faces the punishment of the Gods! Have his sins found him out at last? Featuring: the pain of Volstagg! The verdict of Sif! The fury of Freyja! The strange wisdom of Odin! But in the midst of all this drama, where's King Loki?
"I am Odin Borson, who built the world from corpse-meat. I am Odin One-Eye and sometimes my one eye is open. But above all, I am Odin All-Father. I am The One Who Speaks For The Tree. I am The King Of All Stories and you are my child".
"Trickster, Shapeshifter, tamer of monsters. Moon and king wanderer." "I hate omens." [...] "And don't pretend this isn't what you wanted. You wished to being back the eternal villain, to help shepherd your perfect Asgard into being? Even though you should thank me! Thank me for keeping your lily-white hands clean! Your precious little hero-- your kid loki will never rot in the cage you built for him . He had the luxury of dying as himself." "Be-- be silent--" "NEVER! Why much fury mother? Because now you can't betray him? Because you'll never get to turn him into me? Or into that monster, that king Loki you keep secret in your dungeons? Because I robbed you of that pleasure?" "Enough" [...] "Beyond"
We get insight in Loki's struggle and feel sympathy for The trickster , the god of lies , the god of stories , the god of outcasts , the god of exile who has become The fallen god , the god of truth you wish to not hear
Nice Odin moment with finally some fatherly love.
" Miss Willis we're god's. Living stories, creatures if pure symbol and metaphor" everything we do is real Hey. The crime that will not be forgiven. As if there could only be one. "
This is issue felt like a battle within himself narrated and directed as a play. Constantly mentioning different titles and identities he's been given throughout his existence as he's faced with the notion of identity more intensely than ever. We're left on a cliffhanger and can't wait to see what happens next. Overall amazing issue.
