This clause arrest spoilers forValkyrie : Jane Foster#10 .
Loki ’s cool secret was teased inThor : The Dark World . Tom Hiddleston ’s Loki is undoubtedly one of Marvel ’s sterling success . The beguiler God is a overlord manipulator and a gifted thaumaturgist , a original of deception who delights in confusing his crony with illusions . Although Loki died inAvengers : Infinity War , completing his redemptive arc , he ’s beingbrought back into the MCU courtesy of the Multiverse . However , one of Loki ’s most intriguing abilities has yet to be explain in the MCU .
The firstThorfilm reveal he sleep together secret ways to deny between the Nine Realms , hidden even from Heimdall ’s gaze . Using these cryptical portal site , he had travel to Jotunheim and launch an mad conspiracy to gain Odin ’s approval .

Over in the amusing side of Marvel , Jason Aaron has finally explained the portals . InValkyrie : Jane Foster#9 , Tyrr - another of Thor ’s sibling in the strip - was sent to Valhalla to serve . There , he listen in on the slain and began to scheme . In the old tales of war and conflict , Tyr learned of forgotten magic , secret place , and powerful target . He discovered how to employ the ancient Urdoors , portals between the Nine Realms that had been established by magic lost in the mists of time . Even the eyes of Heimdall - or his comic book substitute Sif - can not see these doors . The Urdoors allowed Tyr to forge a design against Thor , surefooted his action could not be find .
The late arc inValkyrie : Jane Fosterfeels like the spiritual heir ofThor : The Dark World , although frankly much improved . give that ’s the lawsuit , the Urdoors clearly duplicate the portals used by Loki ; Aaron has absorbed them into Marvel Comics lore , given them a name , and a hint of an account of how they came to be . Of course , it suffer to reason the Urdoors must have been forgotten by Asgard ; had they been remember , they would have been guarded . Valkyrie : Jane Foster#10 ends with Tyr defeated , of course , and he is left on the run fromAll - Father Thor . His story comes to an appropriate stopping point when he is found on Jotunheim by Loki , who promises him sanctuary if he will reveal all the secrets he instruct in Valhalla . That think Aaron has now give the comic book version of Loki the same abilities as his MCU iteration .
Of course , in the MCU Loki must have check of the Urdoors some other mode . interrogatively , in the MCU only Loki and his adoptive female parent Frigga have show any inclination to use legerdemain ; it ’s possible this is a rarity in the MCU ’s Asgard , meaningLoki was train by Frigga but otherwise read prodigiously to master his talent . If that is the case , he could well have looked through moth-eaten playscript the Asgardians had forgotten , and thus discovered the arcanum of the Urdoors .
