Excellent. Love how Loki's been elevated into a full blooded character instead of a dull villain. Never know quite what to expect from this series. I got to buckle down and read up the prior JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY series that I mostly missed a couple years back. Have to say I do like Loki as a Hero. Would love to see more of that.
I’m so confused. Loki went from mischievous to good to doomed-to-be-the-personification-of-evil to exile to his future evil self’s prisoner in six issues? This is like the Cliffs Notes version of some story that got told in a much bigger book, no?Shearing forces, assemble!
Another fantastic Loki comic that leaves me wanting more, more, more!!!!!
Loki, Agent of Asgard, Vol. 2: I Cannot Tell A Lie by Al Ewing was fun, but I felt a little out of the loop not having previously read another specific series that is quite important for this as well. It's not as fun reading a cross over when you not very familiar with the other side of the story.
This really should be volume 3 of the series. It's integral that you read the Original Sin: Thor & Loki mini-series as it changes the whole direction of this series. The series is OK, although I did prefer the younger version of Loki where he was trying to do good. Original Sin knocks this series on its ear 6 issues in and really forces the writing into a corner. I don't see how Loki can continue being an agent of Asgard by the end of this volume.
3.5 stars Some heartbreaking moments in this volume but still going strong! ^^
I read this book via Kindle Unlimited. The future is the future, and Loki is Loki...I read Loki: AOA Vol 1 sometime last year and I really enjoyed it. In this series, we see a Loki who is a young adult, and seemingly he has learned from his ways. However, not many people believe him. When Doctor Doom looks into the future, he sees a world destroyed by King Loki, the traditional version of Loki, and he decides he can't let it stand, especially when he has just taken over Latveria. With the hel
I hate giving this book only three stars, but there it is. The problem is not really with Ewing's character work on Loki, who remains delightfully complicated. The biggest problem is that the Axis event entirely hijacks the book for a few issues. I had no interest at all in this event, but it kind of looks like Ewing didn't have a choice as to whether or not Loki would be included. Still, it was a major disruption to the book, and the Axis stuff wasn't even all that good. But Loki does turn into...
I really enjoy this book. I find the interactions between the different Lokis (not to mention the other cast members) to be fascinating. Unfortunately, this volume gets a bit bogged down by the Axis cross-over. Not quite as badly as some other books, to be fair, but it still took a small hit, quality-wise.Overall, though, this is a charming book and I'd still recommend it to fans of all things Asgardian.
Well, fuck AXIS.Crossover events hijacked this book like whoa, and I wanted less about other people and more about Loki.Still, damn if I still didn't loved the hell out of this book. Also Valeria. I love Valeria.If the quality keeps going like this and they just manage to drop the crossover events, this is going to get 5 stars from me.
Holy Event Hijack, Batman!Because we all love it so much when these crossovers turn fun titles into sludge. Thanks, Marvel!And the last volume really was a lot of fun to read. Sadly, this one didn't quite live up to it, but the problem wasn't in Ewing's writing, it was in the mashed-up way the story unfolded. It was just...all over the place.There's a whole thing with Doom in Latveria, that makes the most bit of sense, because it has to do with Future Loki. So if you've read the first volume, yo...
I'm presently reading Journey Into Mystery issues which focus on Kid Loki this week, but I know I had to review this volume sooner rather than later because I've delayed it for an entire month now. I actually forgot some of the stuff that happened for Agent of Asgard, most probably because as interesting and as potentially riveting the idea of a newly-minted Loki in his twenties trying to make amends and rewrite his bad-guy reputation, there are certain aspects to this series that would make it
I wasn't expecting to like Doctor Doom. He has a niece, and she asked for ice cream, and he said Doom would consider her request, and she said that meant yes. That was cute.(view spoiler)[Loki is sorry, but he just keeps getting hit or ignored or expelled or set on fire or deserted. (hide spoiler)] My poor Loki. Also, apparently if Thor isn't worthy to hold Mjolnir, he considers himself unworthy to wear a shirt....Content: Some language, two side characters are "paramour"s, violence.
3.5 starsIt's been a few months since I read the first volume but the memory of it stuck well enough. I've never been super deep into Asgardian mythology and folklore and I've never been that invested in Thor's backstory. And I've also never been a Loki fan. He was basically just there in my opinion. I didn't care either way. I still can't say I care that much. The artwork and story are very original in this series and it's interesting to see how this new version of Loki deals with his past.
I’m not sure about this. At first it was exciting, then it got a little confused along with some annoying stuff and the end was both thrilling and odd. Guess I better read on to say my final thoughts about it.
*cough*So the art was really good. Anyway, this was incomprehensible garbage. It's firstly an Axis tie-in, and that could really be made more apparent on the cover. Basically, if you're not reading that event (and I hear bad things), you won't understand half of this book. I get it, the good guys switched with the bad guys I guess, and some stuff happened in Thor, and basically Thor and Loki fight half a dozen times, and Loki is good but he's bad, but he's good, but he's sad that's he's bad, but...
Complete garbage. How did this go from so good to something I wish I didn't know existed in just five issues? The crossover event (as it played out here) was dumb. The non-crossover bits were dumb. I hate Thor more and more every time I read anything where he is even mentioned. Freya's (who knows all about what's in the basement) reaction at the end was dumb. The girl who can't be lied to's reactions were dumb. She wants to talk until that conversation would actually clear anything up. The entir...
ughhhhhhhhhhhhgod i hate marvel universe eventshas there ever been a good one? ever? literally every one i've seen so far has just ended up hijacking stories i actually liked to waste whole volumes on a plotlines that don't fit or advance the characterization in any way. and in this case in particular it really screwed up the comprehensibility balance, there were so many references to other series at one point i actually started laughing because wow! literally no shame about the cash grab huh? y...
This remains a ton of fun. Loki is still trying to do the right thing. Less James Bond this volume and more dealing with who you are. The first arc revolves around Doom kidnapping Loki and making him pay for his crimes, well future crimes, and then Loki and Doom have to team up because...Red Skull is worse than them both. Then we have a Axis crossover where Loki become pure of heart and has to deal with a very very angry Thor. In doing so leads to the final arc of Thor finally snapping and nearl...
Too many Lokis. This was a lot.
