Loki clicks himself.

Greetings True Believers!

Here are four scans from Thor: The Mighty Avenger #5. This series continues to be one of the best things Marvel puts out.

Loki being a rascal.

Thor and Jane being adorable.

Namor not being a dick!

Enjoy!

Thor invites Jane on a world-trip via homing goats.

Ha, Loki.

Thor and Jane run into Namor and they fight a sea-monster. After, they chillax on the beach.

I love how everyone comments on how OTP Thor and Jane are.

There is but it can be fixed. It's great. I particularly like this bold-stroke style with modest figure work and deep blacks, and it would be nice if that direction caught on.

And Thor's relative simple-mindedness next to a smart person trying to be patient with him is always a winning bit of comedy. I'm reminded of Garth Ennis' Dr. Strange in VIKINGS, but he was a lot kinder than Loki is here. Loki's more like Blackadder talking to Stupid Prince George.

	Wait, Loki is the little brother? i always thought they were same in age (Kind of puts their relationship in a new perspective). Also there's no way Loki just wants to help Thor, there has to be a reason behind his good deed. (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 6 comments) (Show 6 comments)

	Wait, this is an AU? Like Marvel Adventures? I've been resisting buying this because I've been growing more and more disillusioned with the DCU and Marvel U. But if it's an AU, I could enjoy it without feeling that it's pointless because sooner or later it will all go to hell.

	I always assumed Loki was the younger brother. I mean, Loki's obvious inferiority complex is like a Serious Business deadly version of the typical jealousy a lot of competitive younger siblings feel for their successful and admired elder sibling. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Yeah, I'll have to get this; they had me at "Bifrösticon". Also, I thought that "clicks himself" was going to be a euphemism for something, but no--he's turning himself off, after all. (Reply to this)

	Okay, that's about the closest Marvel has ever gotten to the mythological Loki. No red hair and still Thor's brother, but hopefully none of that dratted angst that makes no sense for a trickster. (Reply to this)
