There’s no question that Thanos’ actions impacted literally everyone in the MCU, but he never had someone serve as his arch-nemesis. Thanos served as the overarching antagonist of the Infinity Saga, first being teased in The Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy and Avengers Age of Ultron, and then stepping into the spotlight for Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.

More importantly on the subject of Loki the character, because Michael Waldron now holds the proverbial keys to the biggest chapter of the Multiverse Saga, why not throw in the character whose journey he helped kick off? The people who only pay attention to the Marvel movies simply know this Loki from his brief appearance in Avengers: Endgame, but there’s now an opportunity to bring him back to the big screen to utilize his experiences from the first two seasons of his show and give him the same kind of platform for him to shine that his main counterpart had.

While Secret Wars still needs to be positioned in a way that it can be easily followable for people who only follows the Marvel movies in order, whatever goes down in Season 2 with the TVA can do some major legwork to get us to this conflict that will see countless realities colliding. As mentioned earlier, Kang the Conqueror is causing trouble in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, and Loki Season 2 follows a few months later. As such, between the Loki show’s importance to the multiverse and Michael Waldron having spearheaded the beginning of the Loki variant’s story, I’m now envisioning that Loki Season 2 will be more consequential to both Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars than Season 1 was for Spider-Man: No Way Home and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
