This is a Loki spoiler kind of but I just wanted to say that this license plate is I believe a nod to Mark Guenwald, who the character of Mobius’s physical appearance is actually based after. Guenwald was an editor at Marvel starting as the editor for the publisher in 1978. He is known for creating characters like John Walker who we just met in The Falcon in Winter Soldier and he defined a lot of the powers and origins for the Darkhold which we see briefly in WandaVision for Scarlet Witch. He’s also the creator of the Beyonders, which, if you remember, were a big part of my “Secret Wars” series personally (self plug what’s up). He has a lot to do with the Fantastic Four (where Mobias first appears in I think in Issue 27 of Fantastic Four ? Don’t know off the top of my head), and a lot to do with time-relative issues within the comics.

So I’m guessing that that’s why this license plate is kind of a nod to him since he essentially created a lot of the characters in the TVA including the executive boss of the TVA - Mr. Alternity. *ominous foreshadowing*

Basically I just really love things like this because it shows the importance of the people who created the comics and it also is a nod to the people who, without their creation of these characters in the 70s and beyond, we wouldn’t be getting the massive universe that were achieving today. And also it kind of makes me happy because whenever there’s a character within my own stories that I want to name that isn’t an original character of my own creation, I turned to the creators of the comics. So when it came to the name of the commander of the Beyonders in my heavily influenced Fantastic Four installation of my Spider-Man trilogy, I knew exactly who to name it name it- Guenwald.

Anyway this is just a super nerdy moment and a little peek into the mind of the insanity that is *me* The plate was literally a blip in the entirety of the episode but it meant a lot to me because Mark Guenwald’s world and character mean a lot to me.

So yeah lol anyway ... *tears*
