Not to dunk on other books, but I much prefer Kibblesmith’s meta approach here, which feels designed to interrogate Loki and storytelling rather than simply turning to the audience and going, “Fuckin’ comics! Am I right?!”

Oh Loki...
This graphic novel was a lot of fun. Loki went through many transformation as he always does ultimately becoming the God of Stories - not a name he's normally known of. But one thing remains true, Loki wants to be a hero he just goes about it the wrong way.
We get some familiar characters here - Thor, Iron Man, Wolverine - and then there were some who were completely new to me, but since I'm new to the comic scene, they might not be new to others. I loved watching Loki as he tried to become what he is in his own mind, but also realize that maybe he's trying just a little too hard and he needs to just be.
Fun quick read to start of the new year and with my favorite anti-hero as well.
