10 Best MCU Weapons

10. Black Hole Grenades

These little fellas were used by Malekith the Accursed's Dark Elves in Thor: The Dark World, and boy oh boy, did they make an impact.

When the Dark Elves came to Asgard, they came packing, and the black hole grenades were inarguably the most memorable tools at their disposal. Essentially, they create a miniature black hole (hence the name) that sucks everything within a radius of a few feet into a singularity from which there is no escape.

Fun fact: the actual, real-world, scientific term for getting sucked into a black hole is "spaghettification." Scientists are either painfully unoriginal with names, or they're absolutely hilarious (in a "dad jokes" sort of way).

In the film, we see Loki activate one of these "explosives" (if you could even call them that) to destroy Algrim (AKA Kurse, AKA the big, demon-bull-looking guy that rolled up with Malekith). That was their most impressive showcasing, and we haven't seen them since.

We did, however, hear them mentioned in Spider-Man: Homecoming, when Jackson Brice (AKA the first Shocker, AKA the absolute worst employee ever) is attempting to sell salvaged black market weapons to Aaron Davis. Maybe we'll see them again when Sharon Carter starts handing out candy.
