• Loki heads back to the dawn of Asgard to join its greatest heroes on a quest for an otter-skin of gold, the heart’s-blood of a dragon... and a certain magical sword.
• Meanwhile, Loki does not appear in this issue.
• Both these statements are, for once, true.

    An impressive bit of metafiction that's also remarkably entertaining, with perfectly pleasing art. Read Full Review

    While I quite enjoyed the issue I could see some of the Asgardian references being difficult if you don't know much of the lore. However, I'd also say that overall to enjoy the story, you didn't need to know the history to understand what is going on and that Old Loki appears to be setting up Young Loki for something. What that something is remain to be seen and I am eager to see the two Trickster Gods go at one another in a game of cunning by the time this story plays out. Read Full Review

    While "Loki: Agent of Asgard" #3 covers a lot of ground and sets up an intersection between the Loki and his future self, the story loses some humor and lightness of handling when one Loki is in the spotlight instead of the other. Read Full Review

    LOKI: AGENT OF ASGARD #3 isn't a bad issue by any means, but it's a bit of a lull in the series. Those who picked up this issue, who aren't well-versed in everything Asgard may feel a bit lost in the shuffle, and Loki's history being rewritten is a bit tough to swallow. However, the overall series shows a ton of promise, so while this issue wasn't one of my favorite reads because I'm one of those people that isn't a huge Asgardian fan, this is still an incredibly intriguing book and one to keep on your pull list.
