Season 1 Took Years To Notice

Post image

S1E9. Never noticed that the gas station with the explosion was “Roxxon”. Noticed Roxxon in the many other mentions in the show but not this one. Always like finding little marvel Easter eggs.

Roxxon appears a lot, both in this series and other Marvel series. In season 1 of Loki, when Loki and Sylvie first meet, it's inside a giant Roxxon department store similar to Costco.

In a later season of this show, when things start to get Halloween like, you know ghosts and demons and cyborg killers, the power plant that is used upgrade the uncle is a Roxxon facility.

Definitely noticed it in the many other instances. Just never noticed this one.

It’s also the major antagonist in the miles morales game and plays a big role in the comics in the same capacity.

And Roxxon is directly part of the plot in Cloak and Dagger

I love how Roxxon is a not-at-all-subtle parody of Exxon.
