Sometimes, though, even the most straightforward clues can throw us for a loop. Today, we’re tackling one that might be tripping up even seasoned solvers:

This tells us we’re looking for a male figure.
“Thor and Loki…”

This is a reminder that we’re dealing with a fictional world, and the answer might not be someone we’d encounter in real life.
