Loki's fifth episode, appropriately titled "Journey Into Mystery," introduced a number of Loki Variants, including Kid Loki. A fan-favourite character from the comic books, this younger version of the God of Mischief was revealed as The Void's ruler, something that surprised the Loki just as much as us.

However, when Kid Loki revealed that his Nexus event was killing Thor, it all started to make sense!

Clearly, this younger version of The Avengers villain was more formidable than his outer appearance suggested, and actor Jack Veal did a fantastic job conveying that on screen.

We were recently fortunate enough to catch up with the Loki star and asked what he believes led to Kid Loki becoming The Void's King (a position we know the President and Boastful Variants were desperate to acquire). It was then Jack revealed that Kid Loki has been trapped there for considerably longer than we imagined, while also explaining why his God of Mischief hasn't aged in that time.

"Many people don't know this, but Kid Loki is the oldest one in The Void. He was pruned thousands of years before and just didn't age because of The Void being the end of time as said by Judge Renslayer. It is also the sheer fact that he killed Thor. As I said, no other Loki would dare try or even do that successfully. That not only makes him the Oldest but the most intimidating as well."

The fact that Kid Loki has been in The Void for such a considerable amount of time is definitely interesting, especially as it emphasises just how long He Who Remains, a.k.a. Kang, has been attempting to keep the Sacred Timeline free of his Variants. As for this alternate Loki, Veal definitely made a lasting impression, and the hope among fans is that he could continue playing the character.

We'll have more to share with you from Jack soon, and you can read the full interview here tomorrow. In the meantime, make sure to check him out on Instagram @jack_anthony_veal!

I can't remember...didn't our Loki at some point try or wish the worse on Thor in the sacred timeline somewhere? So much has happened in the MCU now, I can't remember lol

@Turtlestrong - The Snake diálog on Thor Ragnarok, Not remember exactly.

He did a good job. Though I think he should have went with Mobius and freed the variants.

Wait, wasn't president loki ruler of the void? I thought kid loki just ruled over that group.

Repian - 7/20/2021, 10:09 AM

He sure is as old as he is wise. I hope that in the second season we see that side of the character.

So, alokigator should be an adult caiman.

I hope Kid Loki gets out of The Void and he grows up. When they premiere Young Avengers, the actor will have grown up.

Kinda assumed he was the oldest since he seemed the most experienced when it comes to the Void, but thousands of years sounds a bit much.

However, his comments make me think the Void inside or very close to the event horizon of a Black Hole. Times plays some funny tricks inside a black hole, and black holes are the only things left at the end of time, so in my mind it makes sense.

@bkmeijer - Taken as a child and then kept in a timeless void for untold amount of time where you don't age. Why couldn't he have been there for thousands of years?

bkmeijer2 - 7/20/2021, 12:09 PM

@JonC - its kinda like @TyrantBossMedia says, in such a large span of time atleast someone could've figured a way out.

Sylvie was pissed that she had her childhood taken away by the TVA, but this kid lost his entire future to them. Smh
