MCU: 10 Best Marvel Netflix Moments

4. Jessica Jones - Kilgrave's Death

Daredevil Season 3 Ending
Netflix

Even the way in which the villain was defeated in season three seems to have been directly inspired y the original season, doesn't it?

Sure, Jessica may have played Kilgrave and Salinger in very different ways, but play them she did - and it was fantastic both times.

Jones' faking of the antagonist having control over her, only for the hero to completely break the facade, and along with it the villain's neck, was wonderful. The character finally got one over on her abuser after twelve-and-a-bit episodes of little progress.

What really made it was Kilgrave's face just before his death, the look of realisation and shock making the moment a great joy to watch, especially with its contrast against the look of determination that Jessica sported. If it were not for the defeat of a certain crime boss, this would have been the finest 'hero defeats villain' moment in all of the Marvel Netflix shows.
