Fast, fun read that includes significant moments but breezes through them in a way that makes it hard for me to care. In the context of the Marvel comics post War for the 9 realms, Loki is questioning who he is after becoming a hero and ruling Jotunheim alongside his brother Thor, King of Asgard. There's a lot of Avenger references, and we follow him generally avoiding his responsibilities and acting innocent whilst providing his snarky voiceover. The visuals were pretty decent, with a few odd drawings. Nightmare is also in this for some reason, and is dealt with in a pretty classical mythological-story style way, albeit modernised and Marvel-ised. There's also some major gods/ beings outside of time who are introduced to provide some meta-commentary alongside Loki, but it all doesn't really feel tied together in a satisfactory way - you can tell the writers were planting seeds for their unfortunately cancelled-after-one-run story.
