Top Ten Saddest Deaths in Marvel Movies

wren6 Spoiler alert. Here are top ten deaths that can be superheroes or non-superheroes from the movies made by marvel

The Top Ten

1 Wolverine (Logan)

Wolverine is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, commonly associated with the X-Men. His powers and abilities include a healing factor and his signature adamantium claws and adamantium skeleton.

I'd go as far as to say this is the saddest death in movie history. I remember after seeing Logan's death in the theater, I walked back to my truck, and started full on sobbing, and I'm a grown man. I had seen one of my childhood icons die a hero's death, and it served as a reminder that I was growing up.

This, in my opinion, is the saddest superhero death I've ever seen. Unlike most superhero movies, our hero stays dead. No sign of him coming back. Logan is the most beautiful movie that I've ever seen, had a BEAUTIFUL ending to the X-Men, Logan, Charles Xavier, everyone.
"There are no more guns in the valley"

I cried when I saw he died in Logan

I Agree it was very sad

2 Yondu (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2)

Yondu Udonta, or simply Yondu, is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.

He died to save the the only person he had as family even when quill betrayed him...

Definitely the saddest moment.

In my opinion, it’s the saddest moment in the MCU movies. - HoldenFanatic

This death was sad because yondu sacrificed his life to give his adopted son peter quill more time to live. He seemed bad but deep down all he wanted was to protect quill - wren6

3 Tony Stark (Avengers: Endgame)

He should be number 1, he isn't my favorite Marvel hero, but goddammit I would be lying if I said his death didn't shake me. Tears were coming down my face as I saw the hero I grew up with die, and I didn't do it for the others. Loki, I teared up, Spider Man, I was upset, but Tony's hit me harder than those two combined.

Never cried at a movie before, probably never will again. This hit home and hit it hard.

My favorite superhero even before endgame was always iron man

Make it number 1!

4 Spider-Man (Avengers: Infinity War)

I remember seeing this film at my drive-in, and this scene came and then when the whole thing was over, I drove home like "what just happened? " - codgtamk34

Too sad,I cried!

Yep

This was the saddest death ever. I am slowly typing this because I have never seen spider-mans death but he is the best character I have ever seen I felt incredibly sad when I saw him on the list I was like:sbider-man dies!?

May l ask how Odin is ahead of Loki?

LOKI HAS TO BE FIRST! (along with Quicksilver) Loki is amazing!

6 Professor x (Logan)

Professor Charles Francis Xavier is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics and is the founder and leader of the X-Men.

The same as wolverine, he was a character long remembered throughout the films, and most of us knew his time had to come. But the way marvel did it was very sad - wren6

Gwendolyne Maxine "Gwen" Stacy is a fictional character who appears in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, usually as a supporting character in those featuring Spider-Man.

9 Harry Osborn (Spider-Man 3)

James Edward Franco is an American actor and filmmaker. His first prominent acting role was the lead character Daniel Desario on the short-lived cult hit television program Freaks and Geeks.

As a kid, this hit me. - codgtamk34

Should be number 1..

10 Scarlet Witch (Avengers: Infinity War)

She so deserves to be the first. She lost her country, her family, her brother, and then in Infinity War she lost Vision, whom she had to kill herself. Still not sad enough?

Definitely sad after everything she's been through. - codgtamk34

Loki death is good/sad too but Scarlet Witch left the most lasting impact be of all of the deaths she is the most powerful character to ever die, number two Ultron three Vision

The Contenders

11 Quicksilver (Age of Ultron)

Quicksilver is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in the comic book X-Men #4 and was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.

Love quicksilver bring him back

Created by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, Larry Lieber and Dick Ayers, the character first appeared in Tales to Astonish #13.

The OG Groot. It sadder knowing Baby Groot is just his son. - codgtamk34

He didn't die - wren6

James Gunn has confirmed that Baby/Teen Groot is a different character from the one in the original Guardians. - Extractinator04

13 Anthony (Ant-Man)

This weirdly made me tear up, not the saddest, but still pretty emotional.

I have studied ants after Ant Man and the Wasp ( 2018 ) then I watched Ant Man ( 2015 ) Anthony’s death made my hate for Dinsny expand.

"I stepped on an ant after watching this movie and I started to break down crying,So yeah."

14 Cyclops (X Men the Last Stand)

Cyclops is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics and is a founding member of the X-Men.

15 Gamora (Avengers: Infinity War)

This should be higher on the list. It was a really heartbreaking death and the characters reactions were done so well. Thanos had to kill someone he loved for the stone, and while I hate him, I sympathized at that moment.

I cried for about an hour. Gamora is one of my favorite chararacters! The fact the Thanos loves her 😭 she looked so still when she died to. Ugh I shall never forgive Thanos for killing so many people. Although you gotta admit Star Lord was HILARIOUS 🤣!

16 Vanessa (Deadpool 2)

It really killed Deadpool. - codgtamk34

By far the most heartbreaking death

17 Agent Coulson (Avengers)

Yes he came back to life,but technically he did die.I love that he shot Loki though,LOL

He didn’t even die! - MegaSoulhero

18 Bucky Barnes (Avengers: Infinity War)

James Buchanan "Bucky" Barnes is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.

Steve lost him for the fourth time and that just makes it sadder

19 Iron Man (Avengers: Endgame)

I was crying so hard in the theater.

Spoiler Alert

20 Black Widow (Avengers: Endgame)

It was that moment that I knew one of them had to go. I didn't know who to choose... - codgtamk34

Okay. She deserves number one. Tony was REALLY SAD, but for me, she was and is my favorite superhero in history! She was the worst death than anyone. She didn't have a family, until she got to be part of the avengers. Clint and his family were her family too, and it is so cute how his kids loved her so much as to call her aunt ❤ When she died, I felt my heart crumble into a billion pieces. She didn't deserve it, and neither did Clint. She was like a sister to him. She was an epic bad***! When I realized they were going to vjormir, I felt like shouting at the screen. She deserves number one. As sad as Tony's death was, she was worse.

Just so emotional and badass...

The saddest part of the entire movie
