Died In: Iron Man 2

Ivan Vanko strolled into Tony Stark's life to make him suffer for the perceived sins of Howard Stark. Vanko constructed his own Arc Reactor, his own suit and even used Justin Hammer to reach his own end, with Mickey Rourke chewing the scenery along the way.

In the end, with Hammer's drones causing chaos thanks to Vanko's tinkering, Tony and Rhodey were forced to battle it out with the suited-up villain. The duo overpowered him and damaged his suit, but Vanko - along with all the Hammer drones - self-destructed in one final act of evil.
