The MCU is ten years old, and while that might be a terrifying prospect for some (myself included), it has managed to convey a bevy of iconic moments over what would, usually, be considered a short space of time for any franchise.

One such moment came in 2012's Avengers Assemble, where Loki - in possession of the Tesseract and unleashing mayhem upon New York - is downed by one of Hawkeye's explosive Arrows. Hulk, sensing a moment of opportunity, climbs to the top of Stark Tower and sets about eliminating the puny God from the equation altogether, tossing him around two and fro like a ragdoll before exiting stage left.

Fans have been quick to lay blame on Marvel's premier franchise for relying too heavily on comedy in its story-telling, but the image of Loki battered, bruised and winded by a rampaging Hulk, is undoubtedly one of the best we'll ever get to see.
