Do you think The Reveal in the season 1 finale that the Big Bad is He Who Remains counts as an example of Stranger Behind the Mask? I felt like the character wasn't really foreshadowed or alluded to prior to this, and many guesses prior to the episode airing were that the villain would be an alternate variant of Loki or Sylvie, which would have fit better as a throughline throughout the series, instead of a character that seems to come out of nowhere and only seems to exist to please fans of the comics as well as those who keep track of the surrounding promotional material regarding who will play Kang The Conqueror in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (of which I am neither), which has the benefit of setting up future installments in the MCU but at the cost of this Loki series not really being narratively self-contained or able to stand on its own two feet from the beginning to the end.

I think that would be appropriate, with the entry pointing out that this was an effort at Production Foreshadowing and Company Cross References, but might fall flat for viewers unfamiliar with the comic universe. Continuity Lockout might also qualify? Except Kang was not already in continuity in this 'verse.

Do we know if this Twitter account for Miss Minutes is authentic? I do think it's clever and funny, but I've seen it being used as a citation for adding information about the show, and I'm not sure if it's a reliable source.

I find it a bit suspect to be honest, given the lack of verification checkmark and there being pretty much no info given that proves that it's official or run by Marvel's PR or marketing.

My thoughts exactly. For all we know, it could just be some guy making shit up for the hell of it.

There's plenty of fan run Twitter accounts that do that, so unless it gets confirmed to be official by the company I think any tropes or info relating to that account should be removed.

On the version of the trailer uploaded to the Marvel Entertainment You Tube video, the captions refer to Owen Wilson's character as Mobius M. Mobius. Is that enough to say that that casting's official, or not?

It is enough to say that he portrays the character in the trailer.
