Background
Loki is the adopted son of King Odin of Asgard. Odin raised Loki as his own, alongside his biological son Thor, however when Loki discovered his true heritage, he attempted to seize control of Asgard and kill Thor. However, Loki's plan failed, and he was forced into exile.
Some time later, Loki gained control of a Chitauri army, and began an invasion on Earth. His first step was to seize control of the Tesseract (Cosmic Cube), an Asgardian artifact which was recovered by S.H.I.E.L.D. decades ago following a mission carried out by Captain America. After he gained control of the cube, he used his staff took control of the minds of several S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel including Hawkeye. He put them to work on building a machine that would harness the power of the Cube open a portal between Earth and the Chitauri invasion fleet.
However, the Avengers managed to thwart the Chitauri invasion, and Loki was defeated by The Hulk. Thor then took Loki and the Cosmic Cube back to Asgard.
