Loki is vanaf 9 juni te zien op Disney+ en ondertussen staan de reacties van de pers op de eerste twee afleveringen online.

Volgens de critici is de Marvel-reeks vreemd, grappig en opwindend en duwt ze het MCU in een andere richting.

first two episodes of #Loki are fantastic. Obviously @twhiddleston is still perfect in the role but I love how the series is expanding the MCU in a new direction and we're watching Loki try and figure out what's going on rather than having him in control. pic.twitter.com/TP45W73bvi

No spoilers and full review to come. But so far I’m extraordinarily happy to report that #LOKI is exactly what I wanted it to be: funny, weird, and exciting television. pic.twitter.com/w8NTJdzsKg

A big ol' YAY for the Beetlejuice vibes of the TVA! After two episodes, #Loki looks like it's VERY much my thing. Fascinated by the TVA and the timeline rules I'll no doubt obsess over. And love how the story is challenging Loki to assess/reassess his actions. pic.twitter.com/raD9QC78O1

I’ve seen the first two episodes of #Loki and it’s as fun, funny, odd and twisted as I’d hope and expect from the God of Mischief! Love the snarky bromance between #TomHiddleston and #OwenWilson. More of everything please!!! pic.twitter.com/d9WZaLtE4n

They even managed to explain time travel in a way that will allow you to accept the theory and enjoy it. There are moments that might have you looking things up online, but you absolutely don't have to. I cannot wait another minute to see more! (2 of 2)#Loki #LokiWednesdays

The first 2 eps of #Loki are catnip for Marvel fans. Dense on world-building, callbacks & mystery. Hiddleston is on fire. The new characters rule & there's A TON to unpack & unravel.

It's a little light on action (so far) but I didn't care. I fell hard for this new Marvel world. pic.twitter.com/nVR9MQgn7W

#Loki has hands down my favorite first TV episode for Marvel Studios yet.

Tom Hiddleston is just too good in the role, picking up 2012’s Loki instantly. He’s brilliant.

Early exposition comes with awesome details for MCU fans. I really like the start. Lots of potential here! pic.twitter.com/wY6HiYzGHC
