I've always been a DC Comics fan. (In large part because when I was a little girl I wanted to be Wonder Woman.) I never read Marvel comics before falling in love with movie Loki. Since then I've read some comics with Loki in them, but just diving into Marvel is frustrating for fans of Loki as played by Tom Hiddleston. In most of the comics, Loki is a straight-up villain whose motivation is that he's evil. He's still Machiavellian, but missing (usually) is the heartbreak, the mad struggle for power and identity, and the complex, intense relationship with Thor.
So I'm compiling a list of comics that are of particular interest to movie Loki fans. I'll add to this list whenever I discover more.

Teen Titans #20 - "Only Begotten" -
May. 22nd, 2013 07:38 pmperletwo- or, "The One In Which Nothing Happens." No, really. Nothing happens. Certainly this "Red Robin Reborn!" stuff from the cover:
doesn't happen.
We do learn that earth-time and azarath-time move differently, and in earth-time it's only been a few weeks since Phantom Stranger sold Rachel Roth out to Trigon, but it's been a much longer time, possibly years, for Raven on Azarath. This may help explain why in earth-time scenes only about five minutes have passed since the very messy end of last issue, while Trigon takes his sweet time explaining the family history to his sons back home.
( Cease your prattle a moment and all will be made clear. )
And looking at that splash, can I just say, I think Trigon prefers Raven 'cause she's the only one of his kids that's pretty?

"The Thousand"

This was the first 'Tangled Web' story and it was done by superhero fan Garth Ennis. While it's more SFW than your average Ennis book, there is quite a bit of gruesome body horror that wouldn't be out of place in a Cronenberg film, so take that as a warning.

lego_jokerTo icon_uk, from his biggest fan...
Max Allan Collins' brief run on Batman from back in the day isn't really well-remembered. At most, a few Jason fans and writers draw from it as the primary source for Jason's post-Crisis origin, but that's about it.
And yet, said run contained some glorious, glorious scenes. Like this one.
Just ignore the context, and pretend that one of the Robins (probably Dick) is paying the Joker back for all those years of being bound and gagged...

From Eroica With Love: Origin Stories
May. 21st, 2013 08:45 pmnomadicwriterMore Eroica! These scans come from a pair of side stories that were published alongside the main story in volumes six and seven. They are part of the ongoing continuity, but mostly exist as an excuse to give us some flashbacks to our heroes' respective childhoods. Warning for scenes involving coercion of a minor in the second story.
32 pages beneath the cut. (12 out of 50 from the first side story; 20 out of 99 from the second.) Pages read from right to left.

majingojiraThis took for-gorram-ever to get together. Photobucket was giving me a hard time.
Here, we cover Avengers Academy #21-27 as the kids adjust to the West Coast Campus, meet some old foes, older foes and make new friends.
And I complain about things Arena dropped the ball on, because we all know that's entertaining.
