With all the multiverse themed scifi being produced recently, I don't think anything's made use of it quite like the first series of Loki. It's a story about stories, with characters rejecting their roles and killing their authors. It's a story of solidarity, with prison breaks and self sacrifice and facing the danger together. It's a story of free will and questions whether that means singular actions or the core of our identities. It uses age-old sci-fi tropes (weird ones) to construct a metaphor for self-reflection. All so when mobius tells loki he can "be whoever you want to be", he already knows. because sylvie’s already shown him.
