Loki: A Bad God’s Guide to Taking the Blame

The second installment of the trials and tribulations of Loki’s time exiled to earth for being a complete rotter through and through sees Thor’s hammer going missing and everyone blaming Loki, but this time it really wasn’t him that stole it!

But even more devastating than that is Valerie makes a new friend and Loki doesn’t know how to cope with this at all. Feelings huh.

Loki has to discover who stole Thor’s Hammer and why to prove himself innocent and made the decision to consult the Internet… Not as smart a god as he thinks he is 😉

All the while he’s trying to do this he’s also trying to deal with the fact that Valerie has a new friend and he just doesn’t understand this, doesn’t understand why anyone would want more than him, and oh he makes a lot of mistakes here.

Another funny adventure full of little rudenesses that we all love, Thor gets to hit some people (OK Frost giants), Loki learns more about human feelings, and there are some surprises for Loki in this one… Maybe he’s not the only sneaky one!

As always the hilarious story of Loki and his adventures is supported so well by Louie’s fun drawings.
