Theory Briefing
- The Avengers: Doomsday trailer shows Steve Rogers summoning Mjolnir, but fans theorize Loki is impersonating him to help Earth's heroes.
- Loki's arc ends with him sacrificing a normal life to guard the multiverse alone at the end of time — which fans argue makes him worthy of Mjolnir.
- The theory would pay off Loki's entire character journey, finally granting the one thing he spent his life chasing.
- Loki hit Disney+ top 10 on July 22 — five years after its first season — as fans rewatch to prep for Doomsday.
