i really loved the internal conflict and seeing loki be himself for himself, but this just had a lot of stuff that i did not care about, like the weird war on the all woman planet, it just didn’t seem important to loki’s character/story at all?? idk this was also the first comic i’ve read, so maybe that’s just how they are? #17 was perfect, the forehead kiss fucking killed me. why can’t we have this loki in the mcu? bring back sexy morally complex hot mess loki, get rid of receding hairline comedic relief loki

Vol. 1: Incredibly solid fun from start to finish. Loved the addition of some Nordic myths as background. Love the snark. Teenage Loki is just the right blend of mischief, charm, and disarming honesty and innocence. He’s always a step ahead and I love it. Or, I should say that he truly believed himself to be a step ahead until right at the end of this first part. Vol. 2: It took me a little while to warm up to this one. The story didn’t start out nearly as fun and charming as the first installment, but it did eventually pick up. I loved the central theme of whether it’s ever too late for someone to change if they truly desire to do so. I also loved the emphasis on how important one true friendship can be in a person’s life. Vol. 3: This one lost me. Maybe because I read it while sick, but it felt convoluted and incredibly muddled. I appreciate the whole “God of Stories” arc, but everything felt rushed and superficial. I think this entire last volume could have been much more. The best part was getting Verity’s background. And seeing Odin spraying bullets. That was fun. Overall, this series started out really strong and then just kind of puttered out. I’m disappointed, but I still enjoyed the beginning.
