“LEGENDS retraces Loki’s evolution from power-mad villain to a being with more noble tendencies.”
And on the side of the Cube, “LEGENDS traces the journey of the Tesseract, a powerful object sought by villains and heroes alike.”
A prince of Asgard living in the shadow of his brother Thor, Loki attempts to claim Odin’s throne during the events of Thor (2011) but is defeated by Thor and presumed dead. He later reappears on Earth in The Avengers (2012), where he is apprehended by the Avengers and returned to Asgard. Loki is again presumed dead in Thor: The Dark World (2013) after apparently sacrificing himself to save Thor, but is found to be alive and impersonating Odin in Thor: Ragnarok (2017). Loki is killed by Thanos in Infinity War.
The Tesseract is the Space Infinity Stone that Red Skull uses to build weapons for Hydra in World War II during The First Avenger. Howard Stark finds it, and by 1995, Wendy Lawson uses it to create an experimental lightspeed engine in Captain Marvel (2019). An accident with the engine gives Carol Danvers superpowers, and she entrusts the Tesseract to Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D.
In 2012, S.H.I.E.L.D. is making weapons with the Tesseract in The Avengers, when it is taken to Asgard until Loki steals it during Ragnarok. Thanos takes it from him in Infinity War and later destroys all of the Infinity Stones. In Endgame, the Avengers try to retrieve the Infinity Stones from the past, but a 2012 version of Loki steals the Tesseract and teleports away.
