Loki is a Marvel Studios original series on Disney+, and apart from marking the return of Tom Hiddleston to the MCU, it introduces several new cast members and characters in the God of Mischief's journey.

During the Avengers' time travel in Avengers: Endgame, the Loki from 2012 managed to escape with the Tesseract, creating a new timeline for the Marvel villain, and setting up the introduction of several Loki characters that might be familiar to Marvel comics readers.

Loki ends up getting arrested by the Time Variance Authority, the organization in charge of maintaining the timeline. Despite having little to no interest in being a hero like his brother Thor, Loki begins a new journey by aiding the TVA.
