A lot of people name Loki a villain, but this is not true. He can´t be called that because this is a human characterison - Loki in Marvel as in Religion is a God. He shares Odin´s Blood and in Marvel he is a Prince of Asgard and a Jotun - asgardians are Gods and Loki is even more. He is a Jotun and we know nothing about their race - even though it seems they are take action without regret and mercy. They are strong and scary figures to be reckon with.
And in Religion he is half giant and wind-giant. Overseen by his father and his brothers due to his height. It lies in his nature to be frickle and unsteady.
In Greek History and Myth the mirror image to North Myth, the gods are very gruesome. Murder, torture, violence have happened but no one is calling them Villains just as Odin uses rape, violence, torture, murder and cruelty to his benefit, no one is calling him a Villain or Thor who is crashing and ripping the heads off of hunderts of Jotuns. In the Name of Asgard.
So what really makes a villain ? Who is the villain in a Story ? Cause out of the villains view very often the Hero is the villain in their Story. But if the Hero kills everyone of the 'Bad Guys' it´s heroic ? Is their live less worth because they´re from another species that frightens us ?
How many of the Centauri were killed ? How many Jotuns ?
In the end the Heroes are simply murderers too - justiying it in their course to save others.
