Hello! I'm trying to get into comics Loki more. I've only read Agent of Asgard though. I was just wondering in what order should I read the comics?
Hi! I'm so sorry I completely missed this ask π
My go to answer for when you want the most important modern Loki comics is this:
-Journey into mystery first (it helps to know what happened in Siege but you don't have to read it), this one will rip your heart out
-Young Avengers after that, which is more fun (but still, it's Loki, the angst is a given)
-Agent of Asgard goes here, including the Original Sin event, loml, reason I exist blah blah so a reread should always be on the table, Al Ewing and Lee Garbett the ultimate combo
After that there's more comic hopping and it can get confusing, but I read all of them so you're getting all of them
-Mighty Thor 2016, I liked Jane Foster as Thor but I have to admit that I mostly read all the non-Loki comics for Loki anyway and skip over parts where he's not involved sometimes π
-Infinity wars
-Thor 2018 (vol 5)
-Wolverine infinity watch 2019
-War of the realms 2019
-Loki the god who fell to earth 2019, this is a loki comic again, but it was cut short so we never got to see it's full potential, still fun
-Thor 2020, very healing for brodinsons fans, Al Ewing and Lee Garbett team up for the anniversary issue again
-Marvel defenders beyond 2022, loml goddess of stories loki mwah mwah, Al Ewing remains the best
-Loki 2023, more fem Loki mwah mwah
-Immortal Thor 2023 (still going), SKALD LOKI I REPEAT SKALD LOKI also still praising Al Ewing, and Lee Garbett worked on one of the upcoming issues as well
That's it for the most important parts of Loki's comic journey, yay!
Less plot, more Agent Loki:
-Miss Marvel issue 12
-Squirrel Girl comics, I adore her comics so this is a hint to just read all of those as well
-Doctor Strange issues 381-385 for sorcerer supreme Loki specifically, but he is also in Squirrel Girl
More kid Loki:
-Asgardians of the galaxy
Like feeling things?
-King Thor 2019
-Thor: what if
Want some fun good times?
-Alligator loki
-Thor and loki double trouble
-Marvel meow infinity comic
-House of harkness (still going I believe? But I need to catch up with this one)
Not sure what to say about these but hey:
-Marvel's voices infinity comics (from memory he's in America's, iceman's and Loki presents.. but you don't need these, I read them because Loki)
-Vote loki... if you want to torture yourself, read this, the art style is.. a choice
-Thor season one, this is a more classic comics one, I love Loki's outfit here, also he's a little shit in this, 10/10 recommend
-Mighty valkyries, I don't even remember what happened here, he was in it.. but that's all I know
-Axe judgement day Iron Fist, also not sure what the point of this comic was but it had Loki's aoa design and some flashbacks I think
There's still a lot left out, single issues, small crossover things, but I think you've got enough to read here π (also I may have forgotten things because it's a LOT so if anyone wants to add, feel free)
WHAT?
AAAAAHHHH
It's a tough choice, really
I've been loving the podcast so far, almost done with season 4 π₯² can't wait for more trauma
A little comic about a little creature. I'm starting a new notebook with this !
this messed up vintage cat sewing pattern has tormented me since i saw it & like some other folks have done in that post - i tried my hand at tweaking the pattern to resemble the illustration (and my personal tastes) a little more. i've ended up with this. i bestow it upon you nice folks now π
(update 2, added instructions & it's also on my Kofi!)
go forth and make weird little beanbag kittens! pls show me if you do!
I've got a new obsession I hope you guys are ready
There something gets wrong
Hey look I finally drew something I'm proud of ~ did you know this was supposed to be an art account ??? Anyway
transmeds never can understand the invisibility of black trans people. ever in their life.
Idgaf if you don't want to write essays for school. I don't care if you don't want to write corporate emails yourself. I don't care if you can't draw well, I don't care if you can't write well, I don't care if you just really really want to talk to your favorite fictional character but don't want to RP with a real person because you have social anxiety or whatever
If you're still regularly using generative ai, chatgpt or midjourney or character.ai or literally whatever the fuck, im personally blaming you when my utility prices start going up.
I started digital art two years ago(doing art barely 3y) so a newbie, in past bc I wasn't good at art it was easier to get better, now I've been struggling for a while, i don't get better than last time(coloring and it lacks creativity). I feel stuck in a loop. so idk any tip I can get better? what artists do to get more creative?
Hey!
So I go through this a lot as well and what always helps me is to just draw something completely out of your comfort zone, something you've never drawn before. For example: You enjoy drawing people? Go fill a sketchbook page with only cars. You enjoy drawing dogs? Go fill a whole sketchbook page with toothbrushes.
Why do I do this? Because for me there's no expectations. I've never drawn this thing before so obviously it's gonna be shit in the beginning. But this way you will see your improvement so quickly. The first car you draw will look shit, but once you've filled a whole sketchbook page with just cars, the next one you draw will 100% look a lot better than the first one. While drawing them over and over again, you will subconsciously learn how a cars shape works.
And you can surprisingly improve your overall art by doing these studies of random things, because in the end all you need to know as an artist is how shapes work and interact with each other.
Just try something new, allow yourself to just learn and forgive yourself if something doesn't work out the way you want. You learn the most from mistakes after all!
