Loki season 2 returns with Tom Hiddleston and Owen Wilson — and Sophia Di Martino in a surprise scene in Broxton, Oklahoma, a setting in Marvel’s Thor comics.
You never know when a Marvel or even Star Wars TV show is going to spring a post-credits scene on you these days, and Loki’s season 2 premiere episode is no different.
What’s fun about this particular scene is the hat tip it makes to a much-beloved era of Thor comics, in a time when Asgard was very different than the way it’s depicted in the MCU. So here’s the comics lowdown on Loki’s new credits scene, with confirmation from Loki executive producer Kevin Wright.
[Ed. note: This piece contains spoilers for Loki season 2, episode 1.]
In the quick scene, we are reintroduced to Sylvie, the rogue Loki variant whom so much of Loki season 1 revolved around. Since killing He Who Remains at the end of last season, she’s successfully made her escape. She steps out of a time door in — as the chyron tells us — Broxton, Oklahoma. Then she walks into a McDonald’s and, with an air of satisfaction, says she’d like to try everything.
