(Anonymous) 2016-03-02 12:49 am (UTC)(link)You're absolutely right with your last line. Comic canon Loki had been actually fairly closer to his mythological counterpart in dicktitude - while often dangerous, his motives are usually set up to help himself rather than HI HELLO I AM EVIL. He's always been a selfish, mischievous piece of shit in an ugly leotard.
New comics Loki is MUCH more grey and has been in streaks truly good. Post-MCU introduction, his comics counterpart went through a wringer during a long stretch of Journey Into Mystery with writer Kieron Gillen at the helm. This persisted into Young Avengers, still with Gillen, and then, the character set firmly on another nexus of choice, Loki: Agent of Asgard came along under Al Ewing. THIS series went all in on the meta, deconstructing the idea if you even COULD fully redeem someone destined to be an apocalypse causing piece of shit - a question that's been in the mind of MCU fandom since this got started.
It's good stuff on the contemplative level, and it feeds a need that won't happen in the films - the films are fun, but they are entirely the heroes' story. We're not going to see Loki: The Therapy Couch Trilogy.
If anything, we're probably going to see him finally die like a bitch by the end of Infinity War.
This has been your friendly anon Loki stan checking in.
