History[]
The Frost Giants of Jotunheim were in a war with the dark elves of Svartalfheim. The elves tried to have the fire demon Surtur defeat the giants for them, but Odin stopped him. The giants used glaciers to destroy Svartalfheim killing all the elves except for Algrim and Malekith.
At one point, Loki of Asgard spread the Avengers and Masters of Evil, heroes and villains from Midgard, across the Nine Worlds while he took over Asgard. The Avengers reformed and defeated Loki.
