Battle of Stuttgart

Shortly after arriving on Earth and taking control of a number of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents and Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. scientists, Loki made a very public appearance at a gala in Stuttgart, Germany.

This was part of a plan for Bobbi Morse to steal a supply of iridium, needed for Erik Selvig's portal, which was successful. However, it was also intended to draw out Earth's heroes, the nascent Avengers.

This goal was achieved, resulting in a fight between Loki and the allies Captain America and Iron Man.
