With the highly anticipated Loki series premiering on Disney+ soon, it’s no surprise that the God of Mischief has taken over the minds of Marvel fans everywhere. The excitement surrounding Loki’s return has even spilled over into the world of breakfast cereals, with the creation of a limited edition Loki Charms cereal. In this article, we’ll dive into the story behind this magically suspicious treat and explore the impact of Loki’s enduring popularity on the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
How Loki Escaped Death and Landed His Own Show
Many fans were left wondering how Loki could possibly have his own show after his apparent death in Infinity War. However, the MCU wasn’t ready to say goodbye to this beloved character just yet. In a clever twist during Endgame, Loki managed to escape his fate by using the tesseract when the Avengers traveled back in time to retrieve the Infinity Stones. This move not only saved Loki but also set the stage for his upcoming series.
Loki Charms: A Mischievous Take on a Classic Cereal
The idea of Lucky Charms getting in on the Loki craze might seem a bit far-fetched, but it’s actually a clever play on words that fits the character perfectly. The limited edition Loki Charms cereal is sure to be a hit among MCU fans, who will likely be on the lookout for this unique collector’s item. With only 3,500 boxes available for $8 each, it’s safe to say that they’ll sell out quickly.
The release of Loki Charms is set for June 9th, the same day as the Loki series premiere on Disney+. This means that not only will Disney’s servers be flooded with eager viewers, but the servers for those selling the cereal could be overwhelmed as well. Some fans might even stay up until midnight or later to secure their box of Loki Charms, while others will be content with just watching the show.
Collecting Cereal: A Strange but Enduring Hobby
It’s no secret that people collect some unusual things, and food items are no exception. The appeal of collecting cereal, especially limited edition releases like Loki Charms, lies in the fact that if the box remains unopened, it can simply sit there as part of a collection. Some collectors might even go as far as to open the box, eat the cereal, and then carefully reseal it to preserve its value.
The Future of Loki in the MCU
As for Loki’s future in the MCU, it’s anyone’s guess. If he manages to survive past his own series, it could set a potentially unwelcome precedent that death doesn’t hold much sway over Marvel characters. This has already been seen in the comics, where characters often return to life through various means or appear in alternate dimensions.
However, with Loki, true death isn’t always ‘true’ as he’s known for his tricks and ability to escape seemingly impossible situations. Many fans hoped this would be the case in Infinity War, but his death appeared to be final – at least until the Loki series was conceived. Whether the Loki series will be limited or ongoing remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure: Loki Charms will be a limited release, so if you’re interested in snagging a box, start your countdown now.
