This is a monstrous collection of Loki's misadventures. The first half follows Marvel's Fear Itself crossover and is Loki's scheming and trickery at its best. The latter half takes things to a new level where the stories don't flow at all and the mythology overwhelms the characters in a not-so-great way. The artwork throughout is gorgeous and is worth it on its own accord. This is one of the times where the convoluted story hurts the art, rather than the other way around.

This was a fun Loki Graphic Novel filled with humor and Loki being adorable Loki. My only challenge was since I just jumped into this graphic novel there was lots of characters and backstory I did not fully understand despite the "previously" summaries.
(It was also fun seeing a clear knock off of Dream of the Endless: Nightmare, who uses Dreams speech bubble colors, and rules Nightmares LOL Now clearly not as cool, wonderful, or amazing as Dream of the Endless but still fun to spot. Very much a Dream of The Endless is a DC character so we need to make our own version for marvel situation LOL)

So begins the heroic behind-the-scenes shenanigans of Loki revived as a child during and after the Fear Itself event.
Lil Loki is a lot less malicious than the classic, a lot less tricky, and in general, a lot less powerful. If not for the needs of the story and the machinations & ploys set in motion by the one who died & himself giving him allies, there would certainly have been no hope for success for this tiny titan.
But it's certainly good that they managed to weave such intricacies into this since you're left wondering how this will all pan out...including him inexplicably getting puppies due to him accidentally letting two dog-beasts of the Bad Places fight...
