An energy source called the "Tesseract" creates a wormhole, through which exiled god Loki arrives on Earth, steals the Tesseract, and escapes through the portal. Nick Fury, realizing that traditional military defenses are not sufficient to protect Earth, pushes for the implementation of his previously rejected Avengers Initiative. The six superheroes, working together, may have a chance at defeating the impending threat from other planets.
