Loki's New Title in Marvel Comics Makes Absolutely No Sense
Warning! Spoilers ahead for Spider-Man: 2099 Exodus #2
There are so many great and new versions of Marvel characters in the2099 Universe, but when it comes to Loki, Marvel deceived fans just a little.
Recently in the 2099 Universe, a celestial crash-landed on Earth, sprouting up a paradise-like garden with various magical properties people could use to their advantage. Norman Osborn, seemingly alive from the present, has set up an evil cabal to control the garden. Spider-Man 2099, also known as Miguel O'Hara, is on a mission to stop Osborn. With the help of Winter Soldier 2099 and the demon Terminator that is Ghost Rider 2099, O’Hara has thus far been able to stop the cabal from using others to find the garden, forcing Osborn to try and get it himself for his own nefarious purposes.

In Spider-Man: 2099 Exodus #2 by Steve Orlando and Marco Castiello, a separate but linked tale is recalled about how the evil company Alchemax created artificial Asgardians that destroyed the magical city of Asgard.
