Loki Plot Synopsis Teases the End of the Asgardian's MCU Existence

An upcoming art book for Disney+'s Loki has revealed more story details about the God of Mischief's latest adventure.

Marvel's Loki: The Art of the Series is currently available for pre-order on Amazon and will be distributed on November 30, reported The Direct. The book's Amazon page also reveals the following synopsis: "Picking up immediately after Loki steals the Tesseract (again), he finds himself called before the Time Variance Authority, a bureaucratic organization that exists outside of time and space, forced to answer for his crimes against the timeline and given a choice: face deletion from reality or assist in catching an even greater threat."

These plot points tie into the clips shown during Marvel's second Loki trailer, which also revealed more of Loki's incarceration process by the TVA. As Owen Wilson's Mobius M. Mobius explains, the TVA exists to "protect the proper flow of time" and, by escaping his future timeline in Avengers: Endgame via the Tesseract, Loki has caused time to fracture into various branches. Though some scenes show him working alongside Mobius and TVA soldiers across various eras and worlds, others show Loki betraying his handlers and trying to escape from their custody.

First played by Tom Hiddleston in 2011's Thor, Loki went on to appear in four more movies across the Marvel Cinematic Universe, gradually evolving from a villain to a complicated anti-hero. In addition to the Loki series, Tom Hiddleston will voice his Marvel character again in Disney+'s What If...?, an animated anthology show about various parallel MCU timelines where key events had played out differently.

Loki will also mark the third live-action MCU series released to Disney+ following WandaVision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, with both Ms. Marvel and Hawkeye set to air in late 2021.

Loki stars Tom Hiddleston, Owen Wilson, Sophia Di Martino, Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Richard E. Grant. The series premieres June 11 on Disney+.
