When was loki born

However, Loki was prepared for such an attempt against his life and, when Heimdall had attempted to kill his king, Loki used his Magic to then summon the Casket of Ancient Winters , successfully freezing Heimdall alive before he could be struck down, before Loki then left Asgard's gatekeeper to die while trapped in the ice.

Loki closely watches the Destroyer 's rampage. Seeking to tie up all other loose ends before his schemes could be exposed, Loki then sent the Destroyer down onto the Earth pursue and destroy Thor and all of the others who had betrayed him. Loki witnesses Thor regaining all of his powers. When he saw no other end to the battle, the still powerless Thor had stepped up to the Destroyer completely unarmed and pleaded with his brother to allow all the Humans to go free and take his own life in exchange.

Accepting this offer, Loki had the Destroyer punch Thor, breaking all of his bones and killing him. Knowing he had to move his plans forward, Loki then welcomed Laufey and his small army of Frost Giants to Asgard and showed him the way to Odin , walking past the frozen body of Heimdall on their way.

Laufey came to Odin's bedroom, attacking and knocking down Frigga who attempted to defend her husband before finding his greatest enemy defenseless as he lay in his Odinsleep now completely unguarded. Loki betrays and kills his father Laufey. Laufey stood over Odin's sleeping body and mocked the King of Asgard as he made an ice blade form in his hand. Just as Laufey was about to kill Odin with the blade, Loki returned and betrayed his true father, shooting him in the back with Gungnir.

As Laufey stared in shock and horror, Loki told him his death came from the son of Odin. Loki then killed his cold-hearted father with a single powerful blast from Odin's spear. As Frigga ran to her son, Thor returned to Asgard with all his powers restored, as Heimdall had survived and returned him through the Bifrost Bridge.

Thor arrived in Asgard mere moments after Loki had killed Laufey. He told their mother all about Loki's attempt on his life with the Destroyer while Loki attempted to talk his way out of the situation.

Loki fired his spear's energy at Thor and shot him through a wall before making his way to Himinbjorg. Loki traveled to the Bifrost Bridge and aimed its full power at Jotunheim where it began ripping through the center of the planet. To ensure that it could not be stopped, Loki then froze it with the Casket of Ancient Winters so the energy would continue to slowly destroy the planet and wipe out the Frost Giants for good so he could be recognized as the King who ended the war.

Thor arrived to see the destruction being caused and tried to convince his brother not to massacre an entire race, but Loki refused and continued to mock and threaten Thor. Eventually, he threatened to kill Jane Foster , causing the furious Thor to attack him to protect the lives Loki threatened.

The brothers fought a violent battle with Loki often using tricks to get the upper hand on his brother. Loki continued to use Gungnir to his advantage, both as a spear and using its energy to shoot at Thor while laughing maniacally every time he managed to outwit and hit his furious brother.

They eventually charged at one another and threw each other through the wall and out onto the rainbow bridge, and Loki was thrown over the edge and was barely able to hold onto the side.

As he begged his brother to help him, Thor, seeing his brother in need, bent down to help, only to learn that Loki had indeed tricked him and created an illusion.

Loki sneaked up behind him and stabbed him in the side with Gungnir; as Thor lay wounded on the ground, Loki created multiple versions of himself, all laughing maniacally at him. Enraged Thor slammed his hammer on the ground, causing a shock wave which caused Loki to be knocked backwards. Thor then began to consider how he could possibly stop the destruction of Jotunheim , as there was no way to stop the beam of Bifrost energy, all while Loki mocked his brother for trying and failing.

Thor knew there was only one way he could stop the deaths of millions of Frost Giants. Loki watches while Thor destroys the Rainbow Bridge. Thor retook his hammer and began to destroy the Rainbow Bridge as Loki looked on in sheer horror at what his brother was attempting to do. Attempting to stop him however he could, Loki reminded Thor that if he destroyed the bridge, then he would never see Jane Foster ever again, but Thor ignored him and continued his task.

Loki chose to leap at his brother to stab him in the back, but before he could, the bridge was destroyed and the brothers were thrown into the air. Loki allowing himself to fall into a wormhole. Thor destroyed the Rainbow Bridge and the pair began to fall into the abyss, only for both of them to be saved at the last minute by Odin , who had awoken from his Odinsleep.

They both hung before a black hole and Loki tried to convince Odin that he had done it all for them, with Odin rejecting Loki's pleas.

Loki, devastated by Odin's rejection of his actions, let go of Thor and fell into an abyss, before entering into a wormhole created by the energy of the Bifrost Bridge. Traveling through the wormhole , Loki arrived in a part of the universe called Sanctuary and met the Mad Titan Thanos and The Other , the former who offered a pact that would allow him to become ruler of the Earth while he would take the Tesseract which was being studied by S.

Thanos provided Loki with a Scepter with a blue gem which acted as a powerful weapon, and also as a mind control device. Loki takes control of Erik Selvig 's mind. Unbeknownst to Loki, his use of the Scepter was also influencing him, fueling his hatred and desire to bring harm to humans and Thor.

Doctor Erik Selvig was taken to a S. Loki influenced Selvig to ensure that he agreed. Loki arrives at a S. Accepting Thanos ' deal without fear of failure, Loki turned his focus back to Erik Selvig , who had been summoned by S. Selvig came to understand the cube's capabilities, and through Loki's influence, he developed equipment that would focus its power.

When the time was right, Loki activated the Tesseract, forming a portal that pulled him through space to its location on Earth, the main facility of Project P. Loki puts Clint Barton under mind control. Upon arriving at the facility, Loki was immediately confronted by S. When Loki attacked the agents with powerful blasts of energy, the agents fired on him only to learn that bullets bounced off his body.

Once he had killed or subdued all his attackers within seconds, Loki managed to use the Scepter 's power to subjugate and control Hawkeye and Selvig, as well as another agent by placing the tip of the scepter at their chest near their heart and allowing the power of the gem to overtake their free will.

Loki meets and threatens Nick Fury. As Loki gathered his slaves, Nick Fury attempted to keep him away from the Tesseract and escape unseen. Loki, however, spied the S. Director and tells him to leave the cube. Introducing himself and explaining he was Asgardian , Loki explained to Fury that he wanted the Tesseract as part of his glorious purpose which was to free the Earth and humanity from freedom, which he defined as life's great lie, vowing that he would become their one supreme king, although Fury questioned his goals for peace and argued that he wanted war.

Fury tried to flee with the Tesseract but then decided to stay and allow himself to die with the cube if it meant stopping Loki as well. Selvig and Hawkeye informed Loki of Fury's intent, prompting Loki to gather the turned agents and leave with the Tesseract but not before ordering Hawkeye to shoot and kill Fury.

The group then made their way to the Jeeps where they avoided Maria Hill 's attempt to stop them. As they made it outside, the energy the cube had unleashed consumed the area and the entire compound with it. Loki shoots down Nick Fury 's helicopter. As they drove away from the wreckage of the facility, trapping Hill inside, Fury, who had survived the gunshot due to a Bulletproof Vest , flew over them in a helicopter.

Unwilling to allow Loki to escape with such a dangerous weapon, Fury fired his gun at the Asgardian, so in response Loki fired a single blot of energy from his Scepter , shooting the helicopter out of the sky. Fury barely survived the crash and continued to fire at the jeep as Barton drove them to safety; despite being under fire, Loki appeared relaxed and pleased with his success.

Before long, Loki and his small but ever-growing army had been successful in securing an area to determine the next course of action for the Tesseract while Erik Selvig continued his experiments to learn how to control and use its power. While watching his men work, Loki noted the Scepter 's gem glowing and calling out to him. He allowed himself to enter a trance where he could appear to The Other and his Chitauri army across deepest space in a metaphysical form.

Loki and The Other discuss Thanos. While on the Sanctuary , Loki mocked the Chitauri and asked if they were truly as formidable as he had been promised. The Other furiously reminded Loki of how he had been given a second chance after being cast out and defeated by Asgard. The Other then warned Loki that if he failed at his pursuit of Earth or the Tesseract was kept from Thanos , that there would be no place for him to hide from the Mad Titan's wrath and, when he was found, before long he would beg for something as sweet as pain.

Loki speaks with Erik Selvig and Hawkeye. Now unsettled about potential failure and more determined than ever, Loki met with Selvig and Clint Barton to discuss their next course of action to complete their plans.

While Selvig commented on the incredible power and knowledge that the Tesseract was providing him, he explained that what he would need was iridium , necessary to stabilize the portal. Loki also spoke to Hawkeye about the team of Avengers that Nick Fury was forming.

Loki steals Heinrich Schafer 's eyeball. In Germany , Loki causes a distraction by disrupting a gala at a large museum while Hawkeye , along with a few men, raids a secure installation for Iridium.

Loki struck terror into the hearts of guests by securing the one thing needed for Hawkeye to breach the security measures: Heinrich Schafer 's eyeball. Loki, disguised in a suit, attacked Schafer, grabbed the man and flipped him onto a bench, then used a special device to saw into Schafer's eyeball, allowing Barton access to steal the Iridium.

Loki strode out after the screaming crowd into the streets where he made several copies of himself, trapping the people and demanding that they kneel before him.

As he looked upon the humans cowering in fear at his power, Loki could only laugh at those he deemed lesser than himself. Loki bragged that this was man's purpose to be ruled and that in the end, they would always kneel before him, but a single man stood up and challenged him and his intentions.

The man said he would not kneel before a man like him, Loki arrogantly argued that there were and never had been men like him as he deemed himself vastly superior to all humans though the old man corrected Loki that he was no different from any other would-be conquerer by declaring that there are always men like him. Loki fights against Captain America. When Loki prepared to kill the old man, Captain America appeared and challenged him, deflecting the bolt of energy back at Loki with his shield.

Seconds later, an armed Quinjet carrying Black Widow also challenged him from the sky. Loki fired a bolt of energy at the Quinjet, missing, and Captain America threw his shield at him.

Loki engaged in a brief but brutal battle with the super-soldier, during which Loki gained the upper hand and stood above the Captain, demanding he kneel; Cap refused and continued fighting Loki.

Just as Loki once again gained the upper hand and began beating Captain America into submission, they were interrupted by the arrival of Iron Man , who shot Loki in the chest and threatened to fire all his weapons upon Loki, daring him to make a move.

Realizing that the Avengers had been assembled and he was now outmatched, Loki allowed himself to be captured, using his magic to remove his armor. As the Avengers took Loki into custody, he secretly began plotting how to use this situation to his advantage in the end. Loki is captured and taken away on a Quinjet.

As they journeyed to the Helicarrier on board the Quinjet , Loki sat in silence while Captain America and Iron Man discussed what his plans could be and why he had allowed himself to be captured so easily.

The conversation stopped, however, when lightning began shooting from the sky, signaling the arrival of Loki's brother. As predicted, Thor arrived and extracted Loki from the jet and the Avengers' custody. Taking his brother to a nearby mountain where they were observed by Hugin and Munin , Thor attempted to reason with Loki, imploring him to remember that they were once brothers as they had been raised together and spent years playing and fighting together.

Thor asked him to return home to Asgard and surrender the Tesseract. Loki, however, still resented his brother and refused to cooperate, claiming that Odin was not his real father. When Loki mentioned his knowledge of the Tesseract, Thor demanded to know how he knew so much but Loki refused to say Thanos ' name.

Loki watches Thor fighting Iron Man. Loki remained on his perch and watched, pleased, as his enemies began to battle each other over who should take Loki into custody. As the argument escalated, Thor and Iron engaged in a fierce fight which ended when Captain America intervened and convinced them that they should ally themselves.

With the Avengers and Thor now considering themselves to be allies in the war, they took Loki together into S. As armed guards marched Loki down the hallways and past Bruce Banner 's laboratory, Loki smiled at the scientist, making Banner uneasy and raising suspicion all round.

Loki was placed in a confinement capsule which had been designed, without Banner's knowledge, to hold a rogue Hulk. If Loki tried to escape or break through the cell, it would drop him 30, feet straight downward, which would hopefully be fatal to him. Loki is personally interrogated by Nick Fury. Loki taunted Nick Fury about his failed attempts to understand and control the Tesseract and his gathering of misfits to defend Earth.

However, Fury remained confident and told the God of Mischief that he had made him very desperate and he might live to regret this. Loki went on to tell Fury that he had finally seen what real power was and Fury took this as a cue to leave. Loki's mere presence and self-confidence was enough to provide a disruptive element that would fragment the only group of heroes that had any hope of stopping him. Loki speaking with and testing Black Widow.

As Loki paced in his cell, he was greeted by Black Widow who came to apparently offer a deal in exchange for Clint Barton 's freedom. Loki subjected her to a play of wits where he asked her questions about her past and her relationship with Barton.

Eventually, Loki ferreted out her deeper misgivings and explained that Barton had told him all about her murders and terrible crimes she had committed while a part of the Red Room before she joined S. Loki threatening Black Widow from in his cell. Loki vowed that he would force Barton to torture and kill Romanoff in order to break his heart before he broke his skull, taking considerable pleasure at the horror this put in Romanoff.

However, she tricked the trickster into revealing that there was already a monster among them and that it was not him. From this, she concluded that the monster was Banner and that Loki planned to use Hulk to destroy the Helicarrier and the heroes as well.

Once she left to warn them, Loki's smile indicated that was part of his plan: to turn Hulk against the Avengers by first turning the Avengers against Hulk. However, Loki's plan to use Hulk was only one aspect of his real intentions. More of his full scheme became clear as another jet carrying Hawkeye and the rogue agents came to his aid, following a signal from the Scepter. Hawkeye caused a massive explosion which separated the Avengers.

The wounded Banner transformed into Hulk and went on a rampage, destroying much of the Helicarrier while Loki remained in his cell and smiled to himself at the destruction. Loki tricking and entrapping his brother Thor. Before long one of Loki's controlled agents freed him from the cell.

Loki then used illusions of himself to trick Thor into entering the cell, trapped him in there, and mocked his brother for falling for the same trick yet again. Before Loki could drop the cell from the Helicarrier in order to kill his brother, Agent Phil Coulson confronted him with the Destroyer Armor Prototype Gun and politely ordered him to move away from the controls and surrender, noting that he was not sure exactly how powerful the gun really was.

Loki prepares to drop Thor out from the sky. Loki used his illusions to get behind the brave S. Thor watched in horror as Coulson fell to the ground dying. Loki looked his brother straight in the eye as he returned to the control pad, and ejected Thor - in the cell Fury made for disposing of a dangerous Hulk - to fall thousands of feet from the Helicarrier to his eventual death.

Loki mocks a mortally wounded Phil Coulson. As Coulson lay on the ground bleeding to death, he summoned the strength to tell Loki that he stood no chance of winning this war. Loki claimed he had no disadvantage as the Avengers had been destroyed, only for Coulson to fire the Destroyer Gun at him, sending him flying through a wall. Though he retrieved his Scepter, Black Widow released Hawkeye from the mind control, and Loki got on-board a Quinjet and headed to New York City , where Erik Selvig waited with the Tesseract at Stark Tower where they intended to complete their experiments.

Loki watches as Iron Man locates him. While Erik Selvig continued his work on the roof of the skyscraper, Loki prepared to welcome his army of Chitauri and begin his glorious, but brief, war on the Earth. Iron Man , having survived the Attack on the Helicarrier and having figured out his plans, caught up with him at Stark Tower.

Loki watched confidently as Stark landed on the Tower's landing pad and abandoned his wrecked Iron Man suit, stepping inside the building in order to confront and threaten the God of Mischief personally.

Loki is threatened by Tony Stark. Stark offered Loki a drink while he claimed that once the Chitauri arrived nothing could stop him. He asked Stark what he had to fear: Stark told him that he should fear the Avengers as together the team would be a strong force against him. Loki mocked the claim, noting that in their first bout he had already driven them apart, but Stark insisted he had just pissed them off and that if they couldn't protect the Earth, they would Avenge its destruction at Loki's hand.

He also promised that Hulk was stronger than Loki and his entire army combined, much to Loki's great annoyance. Loki tries and fails to brainwash Tony Stark. When Loki grew weary of the threats noted that the Avengers would soon be too busy fighting Stark to challenge him as he attempted to subjugate Stark with the Scepter , only to be physically blocked by the Arc Reactor in Stark's chest, leading to Stark mock him even further for the awkward failure.

Annoyed at the insults, Loki threw the inventor out of a window and was surprised when a freshly built Iron Man armor rocketed after him. Loki found himself under attack when the fully suited Iron Man rocketed back up to retaliate and, avenging Agent Phil Coulson , knocked him back with an energy blast. Loki looks at the Battle of New York. Before they could continue the fight, the Tesseract opened the portal in the sky, finally allowing Loki's entire Chitauri army to come pouring through beginning the Chitauri Invasion of Earth.

As Iron Man left Loki to begin battling the oncoming army as he shot them out of the sky singlehandedly, Loki recovered himself and took a moment to enjoy the moment. With his triumph near at hand, Loki stepped out onto the observation tower on Stark Tower , regained his full armor and watched as New York City burned around him, lifting his arms up and smiling at all of the devastation he had now caused. Loki furiously jumps forward to attack Thor. Loki was confronted by Thor who had survived his fall from the Helicarrier and demanded that he deactivate the Tesseract or the God of Thunder would destroy it.

Loki refused, claiming that nothing could stop his war. The brothers fought for a second time, Loki's Scepter matching Thor's hammer. Blasts from the gem almost completely destroyed the Stark Tower logo on the side of the balcony, blasting some of the giant letters and debris off the side. The two continued to battle as Loki shot down a Quinjet carrying the other Avengers. When the confrontation came to stalemate with them grappling each others' necks, Thor urged Loki to look around him at the destruction he had caused and asked if he truly believed it would all end with his rule.

Loki was unsure of himself; he claimed it was too late to stop the madness, but briefly considered Thor's appeal to working together to end it all and redeem himself. Thor tries and fails to convince Loki to stop. The will of the Tesseract over his mind was stronger than his guilt, however, and Loki instead stabbed Thor in the stomach with a throwing knife , preparing to strike him down with the Scepter as he knelt before him and laughing in amusement at Thor's sentiment.

This did little more than enrage Thor, who disarmed Loki of his staff before hitting him repeatedly in the face, soon beating Loki into submission before picking him up over his head and slamming him down hard onto the ruined balcony. Loki rides a Chitauri Chariot into battle. Not allowing himself to be defeated and captured so early into the Chitauri Invasion , Loki threw himself off the building and landed on one of the Chitauri Chariots. From there, Loki took command of the attack on the New York City , shooting down at the humans, destroying many cars and killing dozens of innocent people in massive explosions.

The Avengers meanwhile put all their might into attempting to stop him and protect the lives of the people trapped in the city. When Hulk destroyed the first of the Chitauri 's massive Leviathans , Loki commanded the Chitauri on the other side of the still-open portal to send the rest of their massive armada, releasing dozens of Leviathans and hundreds more Chitauri soldiers, overwhelming New York City 's defenses.

An aerial chase in which Loki chased down Black Widow left his craft destroyed when Loki confidently caught one of Hawkeye 's arrows, which then exploded, causing him to crash land back on Stark Tower.

Just as Loki got to his feet ready to return to the fight, Hulk confronted him and punched him through a wall into the main room. Loki leaped to his feet and demanded that he stop, claiming that as an Asgardian God, he was vastly superior and would not be bullied by him.

Loki's frustrated rant only goaded Hulk into simply picking him up and repeatedly slamming him into the ground, catching him entirely off-balance.

Loki, too stunned to fight or threaten any longer, just lay on the ground, more wounded physically than he had ever been before. Loki is finally defeated by the Avengers. Barely able to move from the beating he had received from Hulk , Loki eventually summoned the strength to crawl only to find himself face to face with the Avengers , who had defeated the Chitauri army and closed the Tesseract 's portal. As Black Widow held the Scepter and Hawkeye aimed an arrow directly at his face, Loki accepted his defeat and quietly requested the drink that Tony Stark had offered before.

The Avengers ignored his request and took him into custody. When Hulk wasn't allowed to board the elevator due to its weight capacity and was told to use the stairs, Loki smugly waved farewell at the enraged Hulk. Loki is taken into custody by the Avengers. Pierce had attempted to negotiate the custody of Loki for his crimes against humanity, and the Tesseract.

Pierce's interference led to a heated discussion with Thor and Stark, while Loki merely watched the events unfold in front of him. Loki about to be transported back to Asgard. However, Nick Fury ultimately allowed Thor to take Loki and the Tesseract back to Asgard , knowing that both would be better there than on Earth. Thus, Loki was led to an open area in Central Park with his brother.

From there, Thor said goodbye to the Avengers and used the power of the Tesseract to transport both of them back home to Asgard, where he would face Asgardian justice at the hands of Odin.

Loki is eventually reunited back with Frigga. Following the failure of the Chitauri , Loki was now in the custody of Thor who proceeded to bring him back to Asgard where Loki was forced in chains to face Odin 's justice for his many crimes. Upon arriving for his trial, Loki then greeted Frigga and asked if he had finally made her proud, as Frigga begged Loki not to make the situation any worse, although Loki joked that it could not get worse.

Odin, however, demanded they stop speaking and had ordered Loki to step forward, as Loki still continued making light of the situation, banging his chains together and claiming that he did not see what all the fuss was about. Loki then tried to justify his actions on Earth by claiming it wanted to rule over the Humans as a god, comparing this to what Odin and all the other Asgardians had done for thousands of years, Odin shut this down by noting that they were not gods.

Loki's intentions were mocked by Odin, who noted that Loki's only birthright was to die on Jotunheim when he had been abandoned by Laufey , as Odin claimed that if they had not taken him in, he would not be alive to hate them.

Odin told him that he will spare his life only because of Frigga 's love for him. Odin condemned Loki to an eternal imprisonment [6] , and called him by the name, Loki Laufeyson. Having been condemned to eternal imprisonment, Loki was locked in a cell within the Asgardian Dungeons deep beneath the Royal Palace of Valaskjalf.

With centuries to be spent alone by himself, Loki's only source of amusement was to watch as new prisoners arrived in the Dungeons and to read the many books that Frigga would send him.

However, the longer he spent in his cell, the more bitter and resentful Loki became towards Odin for his lies and what Loki considered a cruel prison sentence. Loki watches as the Marauders arrive in prison. A year after the Battle of New York , Loki still remained in his cell. Unknown to him, a war raged across the Nine Realms as a result of the Duel at the Rainbow Bridge having destroyed many of the ways across the Realms. A group of space pirates called the Marauders used this to their advantage and attacked Vanaheim.

Despite his solitude, Frigga alone continued to communicate with Loki despite the commands of Odin , and did so via a projection of herself to his cell. She also continued to supply him with books to help pass the time.

During one visit, Frigga attempted to make Loki consider his actions during the Chitauri Invasion and accept his crimes, but Loki only argued that she and Odin were not his true family and therefore had no right to judge his actions. While he sat alone inside of his cell in the Asgardian Dungeons , Loki had amused himself by throwing and catching ornaments to pass the time.

As he attempted to relax, however, Loki suddenly overheard the sounds of horrific screams from another part of the Dungeons as the members of the Einherjar were alerted and had gone to investigate. As Loki looked out, he saw a Marauder had magically transformed himself into a monstrous Kurse with a Kurse Stone and broken out of his own cell. Loki confronts and offers advice to Kurse. As the monstrous Kurse had revealed himself as a Dark Elf who was looking to destroy Asgard and its leadership, Loki watched with great amusement as Kurse slaughtered the Asgardians who had attempted to stop him while also breaking over Marauders free from their cells.

Although Kurse looked at Loki, he did not see Loki as a warrior and did not set him free; however, Loki, grasping another opportunity to harass Odin , advised the Dark Elf where to find the exit. Loki remained in his cell as a battle broke out between the guards and the escaped prisoners.

Ignoring all the chaos, Loki had calmly continued to read one of his books even when Thor and the Warriors Three joined the battle, violently throwing prisoners into his cell wall.

Loki eventually stopped to observe the ongoing battle as the room shook as a Dark Elf Harrow crash-landed into the Royal Palace of Valaskjalf and the entire army of Dark Elves had then attacked the Palace. Loki is informed that Frigga has been killed.

Eventually, the battle subsided and appeared to have been won by the forces of Asgard , as Malekith had failed with his goal to reclaim the greatest weapon of the Dark Elves, the Aether. Not long after all the sounds of battle had died away and peace had seemingly been restored to Asgard, a guard had come to visit Loki and informed him that Frigga had been killed by the Dark Elves, who attacked Asgard at the same time as the prison riot also broken out.

Loki grieves Frigga by destroying his own cell. Loki thanked the guard for informing him of this and then stood in silence, processing the news. Although he had appeared calm, this knowledge that the one person who had ever believed and cared for him was gone had sent Loki into a fit of rage and he unleashed a seismic blast of his mystical aura, trashing his cell. Loki completely destroyed every piece of comfort which Frigga had ever given him, clawed at the walls and cut his feet in his painful grief.

With his cell in ruins and his only comfort gone, Loki briefly used an illusion to hide his disheveled appearance when he is visited by Thor , who saw through Loki's illusion. Thor told Loki that he planned to confront Malekith on Svartalfheim and he needed Loki's knowledge of the pathways between worlds.

Promising Loki that they would have their revenge for Frigga 's death and his freedom as a reward for his help, Thor also vowed that if Loki betrayed him he would kill him without hesitation; nonetheless, Loki agreed to Thor's proposal. Loki and Thor prepare to escape from Asgard. Free from his cell and excited by the prospect of an adventure while also impressed by Thor's clandestine tactics, Loki began to make fun with Thor, claiming that he was surprised that Thor did not wish to use his strength to escape instead.

Using his magic, Loki gave his brother the appearance of Lady Sif while transforming himself first into an Asgardian Warrior and then into Captain America , noting that Thor seemed to prefer the company of the Avengers. As Loki continued to talk and mock Captain America's Uniform for its tight fit and amusing connotations, Thor grabbed him and pushed him against a wall, covering his mouth.

In The Avengers , Hulk tossed the puny God around a bit — and he deserved it. Some of us might have even immortalized the moment by buying a Hulk Smashing Loki Funko. However, some comics added other fantasy elements to his comic panels. After refraining from lying, stealing, and overall trickery, Loki took on the ultimate embodiment of do-goodery, a unicorn. To be fair, with or without context, Loki deserved getting stabbed in the face.

Without context, Loki is one of the most stab-able and punch-able characters in comic book history. The side comment in Thor: Ragnarok about Loki turning Thor into a frog was a real side arch in the comics. After evading a congregate of alligators, recruiting an army of civilian frogs, and reconnecting with Mjolnir, the thunderous frog officially became the Mighty Throg. Regardless of what form Loki transforms into or his brother for that matter , there are abounding noteworthy Loki moments in mythology, comics, and films to celebrate today.

The progress of the citadel progressed swiftly, and it was so tall and strong that no enemy would be able to take Asgard. Three days before the winter was over the gods sat down for counsel and discussed how they could avoid giving the man payment. The consensus was that Loki was to blame.

The evil Loki was demanded to obstruct the craftsman from completing the last part of the citadel so that they would not need to pay him. Loki would face violence and death if not, so he swore oath that he would stop the man and his horse from completing the citadel.

Whilst the man was working that evening, a mare appeared from a nearby forest and neighed towards the stallion. The mare was in heat, and the stallion broke away from his work and ran away into the woods, following the other horse. The man was not happy that his stallion had got away. He became enraged when Svadilfan ran with the mare all night and the next day and he could not finish the citadel in time.

They called for Thor to kill the giant.
