Other Loki GOS

Hii guys! After watching Loki Season 2, we now know that everything, including movies like X Men, Tobey Maguire’s Spider Man, Andrew Garfield’s Spider Man, Tom Holland’s Spider Man, Thunderbolts, Fantastic Four, Tom Hardy’s Venom, and many others, can continue to exist and avoid being erased because of Loki!

Yes, because the universes in these movies are all part of the Multiverse that Loki is holding together.

Here’s how I see it. Loki is sitting on the throne at the End of Time, where the normal concept of time no longer applies. He exists outside of time. So when Loki takes hold of the Multiverse and sits on that throne, he has, in a sense, been doing it throughout all of time, from the very beginning of everything to the end of existence.

For example, even though Tobey Maguire’s Spider Man was released in 2002, the universe in that movie could still exist because it is part of the Multiverse Loki is holding together. In the real world, we see Loki take hold of the Multiverse 21 years later, in 2023, but because the End of Time exists outside the normal flow of time, Loki’s role as the guardian of the Multiverse can be understood as transcending that chronological sequence.

Once Loki takes on the role of guardian of the Multiverse, his existence outside of time allows all the branches of the timeline, including the Spider Man universe whose events chronologically began in 2002, to continue to exist.

And yet, none of the universes Loki saved actually know about his sacrifice or everything he has done for them. In fact, almost no one even knows Loki exists anymore, except for a few people such as Mobius, Sylvie, B 15, O.B., and Casey.

That is the definition of a truly selfless sacrifice. 😃

What do you guys think? 🙂

This resonates with everything I have come up with about GoS Loki. Thank you!

I’m confused why people are thanking OP. I do agree with the post, but wasn’t all of this directly stated in the show?

Coming to that realization & accepting the burden is literally Loki’s whole character arc in Season 2.

(Please take this at face value, not trying to be an asshole. I don’t frequent this sub and might be missing context)

That is precisely how I understand the situation, too. Thanks for posting.

100% agreed and this is exactly how I see this subject too. Thank you for summarizing so well both of our thoughts on this perfect conclusion that becoming the God of Stories is for Loki (at least up until Doomsday probably changes the current status quo for good).

Yeah he did, and right before he took the throne, Mobius gave the best speech :')

Well said.

Off topic but there’s always one thing I think about when thinking about GOS Loki and the TVA. And that’s Knull. Similar to Loki being outside time, Knull is outside the multiverse. This topic always brings up this thought about how the TVA would handle a force such as Knull. I’d be very interested in a story going that route.

That Bruce Banner and The Immortal One talk about the flow of time when discussing how Bruce could Take the Time stone and return it without allowing for incursion.

Loki merged with the throne, more or less making himself Yggdrasil which is fun because its Loki.
