Loki Season 2 is here with its first episode and it is nice to see how Marvel is building up their next big villain, Kang the Conquerer. While Kang has not appeared yet, he seems to be the main villain of the series. However, If we talk about Loki season 2 villains, yes villains it’s not a grammatical error, because folks, in this season there’s not just going to be one villain but a number of them. So in this article, we are going to cover an array of villains who are going to be a part of Loki season 2 cast. So without any further delay, let’s dive into our villainous endeavor!
Spoiler Alert: If you have not seen Loki Season 2 Episode 1 or Season 1, this article contains major spoilers. Also, this is a preliminary list, and we will update it if and when new villains are revealed in the Loki TV series.
1. Victor Timely (Kang the Conquerer)
I’m most certain that among Loki Season 2 villains, Victory Timely is going to be the biggest-baddest one. I can make this assumption because he has been teased in Ant-Man Quantamania long before he was supposed to appear in Loki Season 2. Before season 2, Kang the Conqueror appeared as He Who Remains in Loki season 1 finale who was again the main antagonist of the series.
Victor Timely was first introduced in the Avengers Annual#21 in the year 1992 as an alternate version of Kang the Conquerer, if you’ve read the comics you might be aware of how menacing of a villain this guy can be but of course, he’ll not be the same as his version of the comics. But that doesn’t mean he isn’t going to be equally or even more deadly. I don’t know about you guys but I am pretty excited to witness how well or how badly Marvel manages to pull this off.
2. Ravonna Renslayer
We all witnessed Judge Renslayer being one of the most manipulative and deceiving villains in Loki season 1, who was ready to go to any extent in defense of the TVA even though she was fully aware that what they were doing was wrong. She was the one responsible for pruning Hunter C-20 when she became aware of the fact that she was not created by the timekeepers but was kidnapped by the TVA from her timeline. She even pruned Mobius, the one she called her best friend when he figured out the truth about the TVA, and by that, it’s pretty evident how menacing of a villain she is.
If we talk about Loki season 2 villains, we haven’t yet seen her appearing on the screen, but I am pretty sure she will appear sooner or later. According to me, when Loki glitched back in time and got pruned by an unknown person, that unknown person was no other than Judge Renslayer. Now what’s left to see is if this assumption of mine stands true or not in the upcoming episodes of Loki season 2.
3. Hunter X-5 (Brad Wolfie/ Zaniac)
One of the newer characters introduced in Loki Season 2 is Hunter X-5. In the very first episode, we get to see Hunter X-5 as a mean and disrespectful person, literally mocking Mobius’ love for jet skies but this is not the reason he’s being counted among the Loki season 2 villains. He seems to be the right-hand man of General Dox who does all her dirty work. By the end of the first episode, we see him with a lot of other hunters going out to “capture” Sylvie but the kind of weapons they are carrying seem like they are going out to kill her instead of capturing her.
In the trailer for Loki season 2, we get to see Hunter X-5 as a movie star named Brad Wolfie who, according to the comics, also becomes a villain named Zaniac responsible for Killing several women. Now what’s left to do is to see if this version of Zaniac in Loki season 2 is going to be like the one we have seen in the comics or not.
4. General Dox
Another new character introduced in Loki season 2 is General Dox who is one of the people in power at the TVA. Even though we didn’t get much footage of her in the first episode of Loki season 2 she made it pretty evident that she is not at all friendly towards Loki or Sylvie. She wants Sylvie to be taken care of as her killing “He Who Remains” disrupted the sacred timeline causing several alternate realities to branch out.
She is one of those characters in the series who want to keep things as they were in the TVA without addressing the factor of how much damage they cause to the lives of millions of people. Just like Renslayer, she seems to be highly devoted to the TVA to the point where she would do anything at any cost for the TVA.
5. Miss Minutes
Appearing for the first time in Loki season 1, Miss Minutes is a highly advanced holographic artificial intelligence, that was created to assist the members of the TVA. In season 1, she was the one who helped Loki through his training but later on, we find out that she works for Kang and is extremely loyal to him. In the Trailer for Loki Season 2, we see a clip of Miss Minutes in a gigantic form trying to crush people under her feet.
As far as think think, she’s going to appear as a minor villain in Loki season 2 but since she’s omnipresent in the TVA, she could also play a much more problematic role for Loki and his friends emerging to be a much menacing Loki season 2 villains
