10 Future Accomplices For Loki In The Marvel Cinematic Universe
8. Surtur
Surtur could be to Asgard and its allies what Thanos has been thus far to Earth and its allies - the mastermind behind a grand scheme to destroy it, but who prefers to use minions at first to do so. It could, therefore, turn out that the likes of Malekith were acting upon the orders of this giant fire demon whose powers in the comics match those of even Odin, who himself possesses power enough to destroy a galaxy. If Surtur wants to take on Asgard in a future movie, he may opt for an ally closer to home to help him do so - Loki. In the comic books, Loki has conspired with Surtur on a number of occasions for various causes and the seer Volla (a precognitive Asgardian goddess) predicted that Loki would free Surtur and other enemies of Asgard and eventually bring about Ragnarok - a war that would end with the destruction of all the Norse Gods. It's certainly a distinct possibility, given that Surtur is such a prominent foe of Asgard in the comics and, in Thor: The Dark World, there is a rumour that a moving mass of fire within the fire realm known as Muspelheim (during the Convergence scenes) was actually meant to be Surtur.
