REVIEW: Loki – Season 2, Episode 6, “Glorious Purpose”
You want insight into how imaginative Marvel isn’t nowadays? The second (and, hopefully, last) season finale of Loki has the same title as its pilot: “Glorious Purpose.” Moreover, it’s a line taken from The Avengers and repurposed from a cool one-off to the character’s raison d’être.

The plot isn’t great, and the show is still a chore to sit through, but halfway through this run, there is finally momentum. There are some good ideas, though, and one scene I […]
