With the near destruction of the TVA in the series first season, and the death of the organization’s orchestrator, He Who Remains, there will likely be more Renslayer in season two, except with a varied allegiance to the forthcoming Kang the Conqueror; the main villain teased in the season one finale.
We can’t wait for Loki season two, and Renslayers return, in what should be a fantastic continuation of the character’s story.
