To Loki’s shock, he re-emerged active and was faced by numerous Loki Variants, including an alligator Loki and Old Loki clad in a fit that resembles the God of Mischief’s classic Marvel Comic books costume.
In WandaVision’s Halloween episode, Vision, Ralph Bohner posing as Pietro Maximoff (Evan Peters), and Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) celebrated the vacation by putting on homemade variations of their original Wonder Comics costumes, although Wanda explained her attire as being that of a typical Sokovian fortune teller. At the same time, Vision’s Halloween outfit was an environment-friendly leotard with a yellow cape complete with a high collar as well as yellow shorts.

Initially glance, Old Loki does resemble Vision in his Halloween costume yet this is mainly because of their yellow and also environment-friendly outfits, which are, in the aesthetic language of comic books, the colors of supervillains.

Considering his purple as well as eco-friendly attire, there’s no question simply by checking out him that Green Demon is a supervillain.
Vision’s comics yellow and environment-friendly look is garish, as apparent by the Halloween outfit homage in WandaVision, as well as the MCU intelligently toned his shades down, as they did to Loki, who is now even more of an anti-hero. On The Other Hand, Old Loki might confirm to be the mastermind behind whatever threatening within the moment Variation Authority. If he is, undoubtedly, the true bad guy of Loki, after that it’s fitting, and a creative ode to the classic bad guy of Wonder Comic books, that Old Loki is wearing the initial outfit of the God of Mischievousness, full with large, bendy horns and environment-friendly and yellow shades.
