awwww. that was a good ending; nice balance of thematic resolution to feels. this volume elevates the series, i probably wouldn't have actively recommended it after volume two but now i would (with the warning that volume two is a mess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯). i told you all this series was best when it committed to loki and verity's friendship

4 stars

Much better than volume 2. Even though it skipped around to different stories it flowed better and you get to see Verity's backstory.

I loved this series even though a lot of stuff was missing due to not reading journey into mystery or young avengers especially the fact that there's technically
Spoiler 3-4 different Lokis??? I didnt even realize agent of asgard loki was ikol LOL.
but I don't think it took away from the story. The second volume of this was rough just because if you wanted the full story you'd have to read some weird
Spoiler red skull has professor x's mind in his mind so now he has telepathy bullshit and then all the different wars
and things so I mostly skimmed that volume.

What I enjoyed most about this series is the humour and the way Loki's relationships with other people were shown.

I love loki, 2013 never really died did it.

Also Yay to a gender fluid main character that had their own marvel title for awhile :)

Loved where this story started and where it ended.

I really loved this series for Loki. The way it tackles the idea of a trickster god is one that makes a lot of sense to me. It's about the stories, about being something "unusual." Trickster gods were frequently portrayed as the ones that went against the norm in a society; they portrayed the "other" and this series manages to capture some of that.

I also really loved Loki's friendship with Verity and I hope to see more of that in other books. She was a fantastic character in her own right and I thought they really struck a good balance there. I could easily see her identifying as ace.

The only real problem with this compilation is that some of the story takes place in other graphic novels, a trend with Western comics that drives me crazy if I'm honest. Even so, this is well worth the read.

Fantastic end to the series. It does feel a bit rushed, so I’m assuming editorial cut the series short, but it wraps everything up quite nicely with some pretty awesome moments along the way.
