I'm not really that up to date on these, outside of Avengers Forever, but there is a place called Chronopolis which I think is Kang's place and a place called Castle Limbo which I think is Immortus' place. Could maybe be based on one of those.

I don’t think I can keep track of all the Easter eggs in the Timeline Landfill. I spotted the Thanos Copter though.

Mobius in a pizza delivery car lol. Missed opportunity to have him flying to the rescue in a hover jet ski.

This is easily the best D+ MCU episode. The Loki Battle Royale was perfection.

Old Man Loki’s illusion projection of Asgard. The Mouse really dumped the budget into this show. Guess it makes sense as the lead to Multiverse of Madness.

Still have one episode left. I'm hoping, because he mentioned it early, he may still ride one. Probably won't, but I'm hoping

One thing that doesn't make much sense is: if the guy on the other side of the void is really behind everything, why did he set it up where so many super powered beings are sent to a place where if they can figure out a way to beat Alioth, they get to him?

Thanos: "The arrogant never do"

Also, if Kang, he may have a deal with Alioth to send this never-ending supply of beings and items for him to consume in return for something else. Alioth is seemingly physically impossible to beat, probably even for Kang.

Someone with a power like the Loki’s got to him in a non-physical way. I can only think of one other MCU character who has the potential ability to do that, and its the Scarlet Witch.

Why not Dr Strange?

Maybe because he's a good guy, devoted to protecting Earth?

Someone online speculated on the various aspects of the show, and pointed out that Alioth and Kang are at odds with each other.

Maybe, Alioth is what is keeping Kang out, instead of keeping others away from Kang. If so, Loki and Sylvie just opened the door...

With all the Kang theories. I'm pretty much convinced that yet another Loki is the big bad of the series, and this is just another Mephisto situation.

However, Kang has already been confirmed for the MCU, and I still believe Mephisto shows up as well at some point.

But yea, the big bad of the series is a Loki who found a way to be super powerful, maybe even rivaling Thor.

So..
Mobius is a Loki?
If he got sent there he has to be right?

Also, the first building you saw in the opening shot was the lighthouse of Alexandria. Pretty cool.


I would love a breakdown of every Loki we saw.

Hard to say we see Throg in a jar so a Thor variant was also there as well.

I said that in the Ep 4 thread as well. It is still a possibility but non-Lokis got sent there this episode so maybe not.

Interesting theory that popped up on my Facebook page. Would be a nice transition into Phase 4 and future MCU movies

ETA: tl;dr.....instead of it being Kang, it's Immortus, a Kang variant

This, the version of Kang that lived here was called Immortus and he spends his time pruning variants of himself.
