"Are you the bully of your school? Or the victim of bullying?
Do you watch movies about costumed heroes and think, 'Wow, that guy’s a pussy. I sure hope a much cooler bad guy kicks his ass'?"
"Wow, it's like you are reading my mind!"
"I am not a mind reader, stranger. You, like so many others, are drawn to the sexy, action-packed lifestyle of the professional henchman."

So, basically, we've already got ourselves some heroes working together here on the 'verse, but now that Loki's crashed here, he's going to want to screw stuff up pretty much for the lulz (and meeting the actual mythological Loki isn't going to help matters). So I'm thinking he'll want to gather up some henchmen/supporters to assist on his
I have a tentative plot idea that Loki will be taking advantage of the post-Times Square Incident atmosphere in New York City by running for mayor (and hopefully succeeding for plot purposes). This will involve setting up a false identity, playing on public sympathy, eventually holding some very powerful supporters in the palm of his hand, and then, you know. Either using his (quite possibly brainwashed) adoring masses as an army or just crushing the hell out of them, all so Daddy can see LOOK HE REALLY CAN RULE, SEE?
Basically, I guess the ideal candidates would be either established baddies or easily manipulated, jealous types who can either realize what they're helping and switch sides or slide into villainy themselves. The more dysfunction and Chronic Backstabbing Disorder we can invoke, the better.
I'm also thinking he'll need a fake wife/fiancee who's either totally in it for herself and planning on backstabbing him or totally supports him (but knows he's bad news; I don't want more plot with relative innocents duped into loving magnificent bastards) and is regarded by Loki himself as a useful tool to be discarded at the right moment.
Thoughts?
