In the Comics:

Brother to Thor and long-time villain, Loki the Trickster has taken on many forms over the years, including his Lady Loki and Kid Loki incarnations. He has, at multiple points during comics history, been villain, anti-hero, full-time hero, and grey-moral aid to the heroes - especially to his brother.

In the Film:

Loki has played a big role in the MCU, not least of which was his invasion of New York, which set most of their universe's major events in motion. Many of his latter actions also inadvertently led to Thanos coming into power, including his usurping of Odin allowing Thanos to get the Gauntlet, as well as his theft of the Tesseract allowing Thanos to retrieve the Space Stone.

Though one of Marvel's most well known, beloved characters, he's killed off early into Infinity War, attempting to save himself and Thor from Thanos' wrath.

One of the biggest fan favourites of the MCU, he's been played with gravitas and glee by Tom Hiddleston since the first Thor film. Though younger-looking than his comics counterpart, he still largely resembles the original Loki, with slight tweaks to his costume, though he has not (yet) transformed into his Lady and Kid incarnations.
