Yes I noticed that afterward. But even at that I still don't see anything that was particularly outstanding about that. Certainly nothing that hasn't already been done. It's not like anyone got a cool costume or a cool look to them like the comics. It was just a dark gritty looking environment with people wearing mostly street clothes. I seriously fell asleep during most of it so if there was some dynamic cool costume business going on I certainly missed it.

I don't know, I don't think I made it past two episodes. Maybe it's for the flashback stuff with the tribes and all that? Didn't seem like the show was leaning towards costumes or anything, from what I gathered, but like I said, I didn't even come close to finishing it.

I mean, it's a costume nom. Not exactly a reflection of the story or even overall quality of the series. It's like DC enthusiasts crowing about Suicide Squad's makeup-related Oscar.

I really enjoyed Loki, it was a little bit windy, but the ending was perfect.

Loki was also pretty good as far as Disney MCU goes but X-Men '97 was the cream of the crop IMO. I so thought Beau DeMayo was going to mess this up but to my surprise and much respect he did a darn good job and treated it with respect in the process by not totally ignoring the source material or the framework set by the original. So of course they had to fire him. I guess we'll have to wait to see what the 3rd season has in store but based on his previous Marvel projects (What If?, Love and Thunder, and Ms. Marvel) I won't hold my breath. But for sure he will be carrying the Disney water they were expecting DeMayo to carry. Which is most certainly the reason he got the job in the first place

Great!! Cheering for Loki and, of course, X-MEN '97!!
