Thank you so much!
And yes! I pre-ordered the Young Avengers omnibus and am so looking forward to diving into it. I need to just do a big re-read since I've got the Journey into Mystery collected editions too and go straight through JiM, YA and the first Loki AoA arc. Maybe I can write up something for the site or even just for here about this particular incarnation of Loki and his character development through those titles, if anyone would be interested.

If you could explain the relationship between Kid Loki, Loki (ex) Agent of Asgard, and old, evil Loki, that would be great. Do I need to go back and read JiM and YA to figure it out?

I will do my best! I think that's sort of a question Al Ewing is exploring throughout the AoA series, but definitely going back and doing a re-read of JiM and YA would be helpful.

If you could tell me where to start that'd be great. Because I just have no clue where to jump in. Do I need to read the Journey stuff to understand the Agent of Asgard stuff? Why is he even aged to begin with? Where do I start Courtney? I am at your mercy.

Not only are they just wonderful books, but you will really get a lot more insight into who Loki is now.

So, who is still reading? I was very, very nervous about this book getting sucked into AXIS, but I think Al Ewing is handling the story well. I really loved the latest issue with the Thor and Loki role reversals, and my heart hurts for Verity. Also, unicorn.

Still reading but haven't read this week's issue. Glad to hear it's a tie-in the same as they did with Infinity and Original Sin, meaning they're just progressing the title's story further.

Haven't read #8 yet, but I've been enjoying it thus far. I was a bit apprehensive about a Loki solo book, but Ewing has done a very nice job with it so far.

I'm still enjoying this book. However, I'll be happier when the Axis plot lines have finished.

I love this series. Al Ewing has done an amazing job of continuing the feel and structure of Kieron Gillen's peerless run on Journey into Mystery, and I honestly didn't think that was possible. I am even enjoying the Axis stuff, because there is some good stories that could come out of the idea that everyone's favorite trickster can't tell a lie. I keep hoping that certain "aspects" of Loki's persona could find a way to come back. But I am still loving this ride. I am bummed that they aged up the character, but for marketing and business reasons, I get it.

I just started reading this and have a question. What's up with weird ghost Loki, he seems to turn up every other issue and say the same cryptic thing over and over?
