Newly discovered dino named after Marvel Comics' Loki

Pretty cool.
Loki was a Norse god – and later a Marvel Comics villain – whose reputation for trickery signified the difficulty Ryan initially had pinning down the dinosaur's identity. "We had a lot of confusion with this," he said. "And if you look at the way they draw Loki in the original comic, he has this big helmet with these two giant hooks that come out of the top. So it's coincidental that it all lines up. I thought it made a great name."
