WARNING: The following contains spoilers for Loki Episode 5, “Journey Into Mystery,” now streaming on Disney+.

DeObia Oparei shared a behind-the-scenes photo from his recent guest appearance on Loki as the “Boastful Loki” variant.

“Thrilled to be a part of the MCU & excited to have been intro’d in Ep 4 of [Loki],” Oparei tweeted, alongside a photo of him in costume carrying Boastful Loki’s hammer. The character first appeared at the end of Loki’s first mid-credits scene, with Tom Hiddleston’s Loki waking up in the Void to discover his counterparts in Boastful Loki, Kid Loki (Jack Veal), Classic Loki (Richard E. Grant) and even an Alligator Loki.

According to Boastful Loki’s self-proclaimed story in Loki’s fifth episode, “Journey Into Mystery,” he was a Loki who successfully killed Iron Man and Captain American before taking the Infinity Stones for himself. This, however, resulted in the Time Variance Authority capturing and pruning Boastful Loki’s actions from the Sacred Timeline. He eventually betrays his fellow Lokis to a Loki gang run by a “Vote Loki” variant in exchange for Kid Loki’s throne, only for the adversarial Lokis to betray him. His fate is left unknown following the ensuing brawl, which Loki escapes alongside his younger, older and reptilian selves.

“Journey Into Mystery” also expanded upon the human variants’ backstories by revealing that Kid Loki killed Thor while Classic Loki, who escaped from Thanos and hid for centuries, was discovered by the TVA the moment he stepped off-world. The two also have more established roots in Marvel comics, with Classic Loki wearing the character’s original comic book costume while Kid Loki famously partnered with the Young Avengers. As they reveal, the Void is populated by a smoke entity named Alioth who feeds on all variants banished by the TVA, but Sylvie, who sent herself to the Void, speculates that Alioth is also guarding something of importance. She and Loki then attempt to enchant it into revealing the TVA’s secrets, with Classic Loki sacrificing himself to let them make the enchantment spell work.
