That would be Peter Madsen's Valhalla comics. They ran for 25 years and ended last year with the tale of Ragnarok.
Just about every old norse tale that was covered in the 15 albums that came out shoved Loki as the trickster, but ultimately loyal to the gods
(and actually somewhat innocent in the whole Ragnarok affair).

While cartoonish in form (to get young people to read about norse mythology) there were some pretty interesting takes on the old norse tales.

I dont have a working scanner atm, so you'll have to make do with this link to the valhalla website to get a look at the art etc.
