Background
Thor was the son of Odin the All-Father, and Frigga, and step-brother to Loki.
During Thor's ceremony of becoming king of Asgard, three Frost Giants broke into Odin's vault. The Frost Giants were on a mission to retrieve the Casket, an object of great power that once belonged to the Frost Giants. They were defeated by the Destroyer, but Thor's ceremony was interrupted and he decided use Bifrost to travel to Jotunheim to investigate the matter with their king. However, it ended in a huge battle and after he returned, his father Odin branded him reckless and foolish and banished him to Earth.
On Earth, Thor met Jane Foster, a scientist and his love interest, and professor Erik Selvig. He tried to reclaim his hammer from a S.H.I.E.L.D. compound erected around it. He managed to reach it, but could not wield it because he was no longer worthy. He learned on Earth what it meant to be a true hero.
Meanwhile, Loki soon discovered that he was in fact a Frost Giant himself, and had been disguised as a god. When Odin fell into a deep sleep, he became king temporarily and he commanded the Destroyer to go to Earth and kill Thor. This failed, and when Thor returned to Asgard, they had a climatic battle on the bridge, which ended in the Bifrost being destroyed and Loki letting himself fall, disappearing into the unknown.
Thor returned, via Odin summoning dark matter as the Bifrost was destroyed, to take Loki back to Asgard but Loki refused and wanted to rule Earth instead. He then fought with Iron Man and Captain America, ending in the forest being destroyed. Thor was then brought aboard the Helicarrier and informed everyone that Loki had an army called the Chitauri and meant to take over the Earth. During the attack on the Helicarrier, a diversion caused by a mind controlled Hawkeye to help Loki escape, Thor fought with the Hulk trying to reason with him before Hulk attacked a jet. Thor then went to Loki's holding cell to stop him from escaping, attacking a hologram of Loki and was trapped in Loki's cell. He is then forced to watch in horror as Agent Coulson is seemingly killed by Loki, before being ejected from the Helicarrier. Thor escaped the cell shortly before it shatters against the ground.
Thor, furious with his brother, then joined the Avengers which included Captain America, Iron Man, The Hulk, Hawkeye, and Black Widow, to protect the Earth from Loki and his newly summoned Chitauri army. He attempted to talk Loki out of taking over the Earth, appealing to his sense of reason, but Loki stabed him in the side and escaped. Thor used his lightning as a way to help the fight, including taking the thunder away from Hulk's smash, much to his anger. After the battle, he took the Tesseract and Loki back to Asgard.
Thor later fought to restore order to the Nine Realms after the Bifrost and helped Lady Sif and the Warriors Three (Fandral, Volstagg, and Hogun) at Vanaheim, homeworld of Hogun and after the battle, granted Hogun a leave of absence.
However Thor missed Jane greatly and went to the Bifrost nightly to check on her. When Heimdall couldn't see her for some time, he sent Thor to Earth and upon dicovering that Jane had something inside of her, and broght her to Asgard.
Odin recognizes it as the Aether, a power thought to have been destroyed by his father Bor after a fight with Malekith the Accursed, and informs them that in time it will kill Jane. He also informs them of a rare event called the Convergnce , where the Nine Realms alinged and blurred the lines between realms.
