The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been very successful in delivering a villain like Loki, who has proven to be so popular that he’ll be starring in his own Loki TV series on Disney+. Many fans have claimed that he’s better than Thor in many aspects and they’ll also agree that he formulates his own logic.
The best way to prove this is through the use of memes, which place Loki’s actions in perfect context while being hilarious to boot. It’s worth checking these out regardless if one is a fan of Loki or not, as they can be interpreted both in Loki’s favor and to show how he’s a shameless opportunist.
Loki's Sass Can't Be Held Back
Loki’s capture was one of the events that led to Avengers: Endgame, and he was taken to Odin to answer to Asgardian justice. Thor had to evidently get through Alexander Pierce in order to take Loki back, which seemed to be something Loki was in favor of.
The funniest part about the exchange was Loki’s expression, as pointed out in this meme, where he seemed to be sassing toward Pierce as if to say he had no intention of answering to anyone from Earth. He might have had beef with his father, but Loki still wasn’t going to defer to some human.
He's Got A Point
While diehard fans are the best at understanding Loki memes, just one look at this picture should be enough to get what it is referring to, as Loki has a penchant for faking his death numerous times.
His deaths have always been lowkey, in that they happen when least expected and are superseded by the plot, only for the next movie to reveal that he’d faked his death all along. This MO allows him to slip by unnoticed.
Then... Why?
Loki fans are still sour about his death in Avengers: Infinity War, with some finding things about Thanos nonsensical. As pointed out in this meme, the idea of someone being titled the God of Mischief being killed in extremely easy fashion sounds rather lame.
Of course, the meme also downplays Thanos’ threat, seeing as he was legitimately powerful in the MCU. Then again, many Loki fans also display the same logic as their favorite character, in that they love to highlight the awesome qualities in Loki, first and foremost.
Loki's Not Backing Down
It can be argued that Loki also had reason to be angry at Thor after faking his death in The Dark World. This meme points out how Thor had been the one to essentially abandon Loki right where he’d met his supposed demise.
Had Loki legitimately died, then his body would have been left back on that planet with no honorable funeral arrangements. Considering how big Asgardians are about these things, maybe Loki is right in singling Thor out for going against tradition.
That's A Really Bad Habit
There have been occasional letdowns in the MCU when something fans wanted didn’t come to pass. One of those was the realization that Loki really was dead after Avengers: Infinity War. Previously, he’d faked his death so many times it had become a habit to assume he’d simply return.
As referenced in this meme, Thor, in particular, would have been annoyed by this, seeing as he had to deal with Loki’s demises so frequently, only to find out his brother had pulled off another trick. This happened in just about every appearance by Loki in the MCU, so Thor has good reason to be angry.
That Didn't Work Out Well
No matter what villains Phase Four in the MCU will bring, many fans will always consider Loki to be their favorite one. This meme should make it clear why that is, as Loki had a good blend of villainy and comedic potential that made him likable.
The meme also points out how Loki’s logic was flawed when he bought into Thanos convincing him that conquering Earth would be a good idea, as Loki was left battered and hurt after the retaliation by the Avengers.
A Man For All Occasions
Those who check out this meme will understand how Loki has a mood ready for all occasions. His way of thinking is that he can talk his way out of any problem by adapting to the environment and claiming he’s not the one to blame.
If one were to argue with Loki, odds are he’ll still come out as the victor of the argument due to his tendency to always play the victim and be the aggressor, no matter what the situation.
Don't Steal His Lines, Hela
Ironically, one of the best Mjolnir moments is when the hammer is being destroyed by Hela. Most of the focus in that scene was toward the shock of this happening, but this meme takes things from Loki’s point of view and what he was probably thinking.
More than likely, he was thinking of all the possibilities of where he could be linked with Hela. The meme makes reference to Hela being Loki’s daughter in the comics as well, along with him being offended that Hela’s using his style.
Loki Subtext
Back in the first Thor movie, most fans hadn’t caught on to Loki’s tactics. This meme serves as the subtext to his words, where it’s clear that Loki didn’t actually feel bad for Thor at all. His actions in Asgard certainly attested to this.
The Loki in later movies would have definitely gone with the dialogue in the right-hand panels, as he was much more on the mischievous side. This picture is also proof of how well Loki can manipulate anyone to fit his own needs.
Loki's Point Of View
There’s no need to wonder that many place Odin among the worst fathers in the MCU. This meme was definitely made by a hardcore Loki fan, claiming that Odin was so ignorant of Loki that he even forgot his name.
Then again, it might also be showing Loki’s logic of fitting things into his point of view, meaning he always imagined Odin to be distant when he wasn’t actually that way. But there’s no doubt this scene would have played out like this in Loki’s mind.
