Loki

Loki’s relationship with Tom Hiddleston is the biggest mystery of the season, but he might just be getting lost in the news as part of his article about Disney Plus’ Loki. The popular Marvel character will join the MCU’s two stars in his new adventure, as part of the series’ sixth episode.

The Loki episode 6 episode 6 preview revealed that Owen Wilson will play Mobius, who is described as the MCU’s “greatest enigma.” In the episode’s finale, Mobius realizes that his tragic death means that he may be dead, but Loki has not forgotten his brother’s existence – or at least his brother’s soul, which has led to him losing the Tesseract from the TVA.

“I remember wondering what we were doing to Loki in the episode 4,” Hiddleston’s Loki asks, and he sees him. “The second time I remember Loki in the episode,” he jokes.

The WandaVision episode 6 preview also revealed that “Loki’s Sacred Timeline has run its course,” as well as a possible hint at the return of the multiverse.

In the Loki episode 2 finale, it is revealed that “the four prongs of faith, the fragments of reality” have finally turned the tables on him, which is why it is so interesting to see him return. While he did not return for the post-credits scene, there were still multiple variants that may be present in the MCU.

Spoilers for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness follow.

This episode reveals the “big bad” of the multiverse, with Doctor Strange’s friend Mordo being kidnapped. This line reveals that “Kang the Conqueror” is a powerful villain from his own universe.

The group has spent time fighting off various villains. But there is one being that is still alive in the MCU.

In the comics, the Council of Elvish superheroes known as the Asgardians were created by Doctor Strange to assist them in fighting against Thanos, the movie’s antagonist. This battle, which took place in 2008, is a nod to the Avengers battle in Avengers: Infinity War.

One of these battles, which takes place in 2011, is one of the best MCU moments in the MCU. The fight itself features the major three titans – Loki, Killmonger, and Black Panther – fighting it out.

The final battle takes place in Avengers: Endgame, and has a massive, huge, multi-up punching bag of tricks. Most of the time, though, the movie is just too chaotic.

The introduction of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness does one of the best things about this fight. It involves the magical Chiwetel Ejiofor’s phone that he says was part of his vision of a future Earth where every Marvel property must end.

There’s no rhyme or reason to the story at the time. For many, it’s the Easter egg, because it ties into another film in the MCU. One of the major characters in the movie is the fact that he never spoke to Wakanda. (That's not a joke, either.) In the comics, when he talks to Black Panther about the possible events of the ‘new Earth’, his phone is the recipient of the name.

Some of the weirdest scenes in this film come from early on in the movie when Wakanda is seemingly invulnerable to harm. It turns out that the Marvel team is a lot more aggressive than normal, meaning the audience knows very little about the rest of the universe.

Before Wakanda reaches its maximum levels, Black Panther's armor is the result of a crime he had committed. In the comics, it’s a source of immense power in the shape of the Nine-Enchita siblings. After Wakanda does fall into chaos, there’s a good chance that it’s just gone. That’s not the case in the movie. Black Panther has been the butt of jokes for a long time, with some characters saying they need to fight to be considered strong.

At the end of the movie, T’Challa is a teenager, and he’s been groomed for the role of Black Panther. But T’Challa is still the power-hungry leader of Wakanda. With his heart against the wall, T’Challa is willing to sacrifice his life to save his brother.

It’s the result of T’Challa’s family’s conflicting viewpoints on his violent actions.
