History ComicBook / LokiAgentOfAsgard

''Loki: Agent of Asgard'' is the continuing adventures (after ''ComicBook/JourneyIntoMysteryGillen'' and ''ComicBook/YoungAvengers'') of Marvel's lovable God of Mischief, ComicBook/{{Loki}}, as written by Creator/AlEwing. Only now those adventures involve doing wet-work for the All-Mothers of Asgard, in exchange for their freedom and the chance of redemption. The twist is that this time, Loki really, really, ''really'' means it. But the problem with having a past like Loki's is that sooner or later, it's going to catch up with you.

-->'''Verity''': What makes hate easy?
-->'''Valeria''': Mommy and daddy.
-->'''Loki''': Harsh! But yes.
* FromACertainPointOfView: According to [[spoiler:story!]]Loki, everything depends on how you see it.
-->'''Verity:''' Are ''you'' him? Is... is he dead?
-->'''Loki:''' Dunno. Is Schrödinger's ''cat''?

* IncrediblyLamePun: Many. Loki's sense of humor is [[PungeonMaster very punny]] and other's aren't so far behind. Some highlights:
** 'The wheel of rein carnations', [[spoiler:courtesy of Mephisto after tricking Sigurd into signing his contract.]] [[spoiler:It's a wheel that whips you with horse bridles shaped into flowers.]]
--->'''[[spoiler: Mephisto]]:''' [[LampshadeHanging And consider that pun the first of your many tortures.]]
** [[spoiler:Old!Loki]] describing himself to [[spoiler:Verity]] as her 'Best Friend's Forever'.

** Loki uses that ''[[ComicBook/CivilWar unpleasantness]]'' involving Thor's DNA and Iron Man to momentarily distract the Avengers.

** A flashback in Issue #15 shows Verity had to register herself when the [[ComicBook/CivilWar Superhuman Registration Act]] was enacted, but that she never had to join a superhero team.

* SuperRegistrationAct: Turns out Verity lived through ''ComicBook/CivilWar'' and she's a registered super (mostly because she heard Iron Man's "register or '''else'''..." speech and being what she is ''knew'' he meant it).

* EpicFail: Somehow ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}} is so bad at video games that he manages to get the army after him, and has no health while he's falling out of a plane. This is something you'd expect to happen in ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAuto'' or another similar game He's playing ''a fishing simulator''.

* '''This series ties-in to the following events[[note]]Damn it, Loki. Did you curse your own title? "...[[ComicBook/YoungAvengers be involved in a string of massive corporate crossover events for your entire run]]"[[/note]]:'''

* PoisonousFriend: [[spoiler:Inverted!]]Amora to [[spoiler:Heroic!]]Loki. If she wasn't there they would question themself sooner and [[spoiler:wouldn't give up two of their friends to Asgardian ''justice'']]. She is just so utterly convinced of her own righteousness it's hard to say no to her.
