Loki - 1893

For a series where the stakes are the every life in existence, it seems a bit weird to do a mostly farcical episode like “1893” which only undermines further Kang (Jonathan Majors) as a legitimate big bad in the MCU, but I’ve only read comics for four decades so what do I know. While the TVA continues to break down, Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Mobius (Owen Wilson), and later Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino), catch up to the missing Renslayer (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) and an overly goofy con man Kang variant whose history the former agent of the TVA and Miss Minutes (Tara Strong) have being manipulating to put him on the path to become a replacement .

Rick and Morty - How Poopy Got His Poop Back

Remember that time Rick (Ian Cardoni) partied with Hugh Jackman (playing himself) and got hunted by a Predator? Rick and Morty return for a new season with Rick rounding up his old friends to throw an intervention-like event, which he swears isn’t an intervention (because those are dumb!), for his old friend Mr. Poopybutthole (Jon Allen) who has been living with the Smiths for several weeks. Things quickly go off the rails. While the rest of the family don’t get much more than cameos here, the episode does allow for an assortment of Rick’s old pals to get together and party with Jackman and the Smith’s neighbor Gene (Tom Kenny) who is literally left holding the bag to close out the episode.

Loki - Breaking Bad

Largely ignoring more immediate threats, Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Mobius (Owen Wilson) go in search of the missing Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) which leads them to Hunter X-05 (Rafael Casal) who abandoned his hunt for Sylvie to live out his life as a movie star in the late 1970s. The majority of the episode features Loki and Mobius capturing X-05 and then threatening and torturing him for information (showing off a bit of Loki’s more sinister side) before eventually leading to Loki’s reunion with Sylvie and basically lucking into a discovery of just what some members of the TVA are up to.

Darth Vader #39

Continuing the “Dark Droids” crossover event, on Mustafar an infected Zed sends an Octuptarra tri-droid after Darth Vader in an attempt to finally put the Dark Lord of the Sith down. It’s another issue of a struggling Vader facing off against dangerous droids (although I could never quite buy the Octuptarra as a Sith-killer). The attack forces Vader to stop relying on the crutches which helped him reconnect with the Force and reclaim his power once more.
