In 2009, Loki was ranked as IGN's 8th Greatest Comic Book Villain of All Time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://comics.ign.com/top-100-villains/8.html )〕 Tom Hiddleston first portrayed Loki in the 2011 live action film ''Thor'', and then again in ''The Avengers'' (2012) and in ''Thor: The Dark World'' (2013); he is slated to reprise his role in ''Thor: Ragnarok'' (2017) and both parts of ''Avengers: Infinity War'' (2018/2019). ==Publication history== Loki made his first Marvel Comics appearance in Timely Comics' publication ''Venus'' No. 6 (August 1949), where Loki was depicted as a member of the Olympian gods exiled to the Underworld, and here resembled the traditional image of the Devil. He convinced Jupiter to let him into Earth as Venus was allowed onto it, planning to spread hate. Venus pledged herself to him to stop his plans, but Jupiter saw her unselfish act and freed her from the pledge, and Loki was sent back to the Underworld. He made his first official Marvel appearance in ''Journey into Mystery'' No. 85 (October 1962), where Loki was reintroduced as Thor's sworn enemy. The modern age Loki was introduced by brothers and co-writers Stan Lee and Larry Lieber and he was redesigned by Jack Kirby. As one of Thor's arch-nemeses, Loki has frequently made appearances in Thor-related titles like ''Journey into Mystery'' and ''Thor'', as well as other Marvel Universe titles such as ''The Avengers'' and ''X-Men''.〔''X-Men and Alpha Flight'' No. 1 (December 1985)〕 As well as brief appearances in the ''Spider-Man'' and ''Defenders'' comic series. He was the starring character in two four-issue miniseries ''Loki'' in 2004 and 2010. Loki played a key role in the 2010s company-wide ''Siege'' storyline, in which the character is eventually killed. Starting with issue No. 622 the ongoing series ''Thor'' reverted to the original title ''Journey into Mystery'' and shifted focus to Loki. Under the pen of Kieron Gillen, Loki is resurrected but exists in a child's body. He remained the main character from 2011-2012, his final issue as lead being No. 645. Gillen, joined by penciller Jamie McKelvie, continued his Loki storyline by introducing Loki, still as Kid Loki, as a main character in the second ''Young Avengers'', which began in 2013. In issue No. 11, he manipulated Wiccan into restoring him to a teenaged form.〔''Young Avengers'' vol. 2 No. 11 (2013).〕 A Loki solo series called ''Loki: Agent of Asgard'' was announced for 2014. Writer Al Ewing said that among other things, the series will explore Loki's bisexuality and fluid gender identity, writing "Loki is bi and I'll be touching on that. He'll shift between genders occasionally as well." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Loki (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
