"You must learn Loki, there are some stories none will ever believe".

The art in this one is particularly sick!

WHAT?!?!?

This is the last one available on Marvel Unlimited.

I only have this for a month! Upload the next issue!! This one is quite a cliffy.

We see loki tired and not in his usual never ending mischief trickster form.
He uses his powers to re-enact the events of his confrontation with Thor and when Spiderman interfered to save loki.
I adored the concept of all the villains uniting to face the old heroes and the reversal of roles.
Amora's presence was also powerful in this one.
And loki wielding mjolnir OH MY GOD SO SATISFACTORY but then after the fight was over with him victorious and him kneeling in front of mjolnir and hearing Thor say that no one would ever believe his victory once Scarlet witch's spell was over seemed like loki accepting his tragic eternal conviction to always be the villain (seemingly at least because as he has correctly established before no one "bad" is ever truly bad and no one "good" is ever truly good".

Quizás las cuatro estrellas le quedan un poquitín grande, pero lo cierto es que me gustó bastante. Me parece que esta vez Al Ewing logró contar bien la historia. No solo nos entretuvo, sino que le dio trasfondo a un Tie-Ins de AXIS (lo cual es un montón teniendo en cuenta lo pedorro de AXIS en general).

Me gusta mucho la evolución que realiza con el personaje de Loki. Si bien sus motivaciones parecen estar más supeditadas a la aprobación de otros que a su desarrollo propio, esto no está del todo mal, sino que de mantenerse es consecuente con la idea que el personaje tiene de sí mismo.

No tiene mucho para analizar, pero la verdad es que es un cómic que logra conmover y trata al personaje como se debe.

This issue was interesting but I'm glad it means this storyarc is over because I wasn't the biggest of it. I did think it was interesting to see the roles of Thor and Loki reversed and I'm sure the fall out of what happened in this issue will be interesting as well.

Oh gosh. This volume was so good. So epic and heartbreaking. Now I want to give Loki a hug.

Loki did it. He picked it up. He picked up Mjölnir! He proved himself worthy...and then he wasn't. Truly a great issue. This series is very good, can't wait to see what is in store for the agent of Asgard.

Loki is the god of heroism and Thor the god of evil? This issue has a very well done balance of humor, action and heart. Possibly one of the best issues of this comic's run as of yet.

[Jaime · Rating 2 out of 5]

I'm really not loving having all the action explained on the first page because it's happened in other comics! This is why I hate tie-in events!

"We are more than our roles, more than our fates" a quote from this comic that sums up the moral themes of Loki's arcs over the past few years so very well.

I'm rooting for Loki and Thor so hard to get back to a good place, but it's Marvel and they really do enjoy breaking my feelings in pieces.
