Loki may want to be a good guy, but he is still Loki, and that involves a natural tendency to be, well. But of course, it can't be that simple or straight-forward.

He will work as their agent across the nine realms, slowly earn their trust and become a trusted and honorable Asgardian. In order to redeem himself, he puts his wit at the service of Asgardia's rulers, the All-Mother. But change is not easy, and it requires support - something that is not easy to come by when you've spend your entire existence being notoriously treacherous. He doesn't want to grow into the old, evil version of himself who has been pulling the strings for a long time. This story is an interesting reflection here on what makes characters good or bad, and on their capacity to change. If you watched the Disney+ series and are not over it and wanting more, this lovely collected edition of the “Agent of Asgard” series is for you!įirst, of all, I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by how layered this collection turned out to be: I figured at first that this might be a simple attempt by Marvel to cash in on the huge fan-base the character ended up gathering, but there is substance to this story, and more coherence than I have come to expect from mainstream comic books.

Let’s get it out of the way: I am a fairly shameless Loki fan-girl, whether it’s from Norse mythology or MCU, he’s my man.
