I just saw the trailer and I have to admit it looks good, really good. I do have mixed feelings though, Loki is a very interesting character, as a hero or a villain, and Tom Hiddleston is a fine actor that can play both sides very well. What made Loki really interesting, to me at least, is the growth he went through in The Dark World and Ragnarok but that's gone because of what happened in Endgame.

So on one hand we have one of my favorite characters from the MCU, on the other hand what made him my one of my favorites is gone.

So how do you feel about this one?

Loki as an Agent of the TVA? Hummmmm....

So a fantasy James Bond? The TVA sends him out across time and space to Put Right What Once Went Wrong? Er...might work. They could have any marvel character 'pop' up....

Could be a fun twist if he is Forced to work for the TVA and spends the show as a double agent as he works for them but also works for himself and tries to escape.

So with the TVA, they can still have the character growth. Like: the TVA finds Loki guilty of 'crime x' and gives him the sentience 'Time Cop', BUT first they put him back in the timeline for The Dark World and Ragnarok, and then save him from death at Infinity War. The sort of "Well, you are dead and now belong to us".

And elevator guy....Mr. Mobius...aka not "Mark Gruenwald", wow, what a nice touch......

Looks like a cross between Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow.

At the moment, I feel pretty much the same, Loki's a great and fun character, and having him working for the Time Police and fixing time (most likely in his own way) sounds interesting and just as fun, but I do hope that they find away to merge the memories and experiences of the Loki that died with this Loki, I'm not familiar with the Marvel Universe outside of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, so I'm not sure if that's a thing the TVA can do.

I like the concept, but I don't like that the MCU is using more timetravel. It is really never thought through enough. Also, this being a different Loki comes with the problem that the people who have watched his character and like his development are going to see him regressed to before all that character development and restart from basically scratch. I don't know, it could still be good, I'll give the first season a watch.
