Every Major MCU Hero Death Ranked From Worst To Best
3. The Snap
This was everything that the heroes of the MCU came together to try and stop. From Wakanda to Titan, Knowhere, and Nidavillir, it took the collective effort of every hero in the franchise, bar Hawkeye and Ant-Man, to try and stop Thanos from killing half the universe’s population.
However, this wasn’t good enough. The Mad Titan was still able to assemble all six Infinity Stones, and since Thor decided not to go for the head, he killed 50% of all living creatures everywhere with just the snap of his fingers.
Bucky, T’Challa, Groot, Wanda, Sam, Mantis, Drax, Star-Lord, Doctor Strange, Spider-Man and his Aunt May, Maria Hill, Nick Fury, Hope and Janet van Dyne, Hank Pym, Erik Selvig, Sharon Carter, and Shuri were all among those that were killed by Thanos.
Ultimately, the Avengers were able to bring everyone back who was snapped away, but not before a full five years had passed, and as The Falcon and the Winter Soldier showed, it wasn’t just as easy as back to normality for everyone. Despite these three billion people being resurrected, the world was still ruined possibly beyond repair.
