10 Best Fight Scenes In Comic Book Movies

7. Wonder Woman - No Man's Land

Wolverine Vs X24
Warner Bros.

Is this breaking the rules laid out in the introduction? Possibly, given as it's Diana's slow march across No Man's Land rather than straight up combat, but it feels like she's single handedly fighting the German army and is too good a scene to leave out.

It's hard to believe that Warner Brothers actually wanted this scene cut entirely before director Patty Jenkins insisted it remain. Actually, considering the general mismanagement of the DCEU it's not to difficult to believe at all.

Wonder Woman is often thought of as the best DC movie since The Dark Knight Rises, and moments like this elevate it above the crowd. There's the ice cool reveal of her crown as she pulls away her hair, the sumptuous rising music and that confident, no nonsense strut combining perfectly to make this moment so memorable. The only issue is that while deflecting the bullets with her arms looks cool, why not just use her huge shield?

If you're a real stickler for accuracy, you can go ahead and pretend this entry's about Diana's initial fight with the soldiers when they first land in Themyscira. It’s almost as good.
