MCU The 10 Best Weapons In The Comic Book Franchise Ranked

With the entire Infinity Saga and more films and Disney+ shows, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has seen a large and diverse cast of characters. As a result, many characters sport a signature weapon to help them stand out.

From heroes to villains, the MCU’s many weapons are as unique as the characters themselves but which ones are the best? Which ones stole the show the most? These range from firearms to entire costumes designed to be walking weapons that turn the hero or villain into a powerhouse.

10 Element Guns

MCU The 10 Best Weapons In The Comic Book Franchise Ranked

To stand out from the seemingly endless amounts of intergalactic outlaws, it requires a unique weapon. Peter Quill (AKA Star-Lord) wields dual blasters with two barrels on the top and bottom; one fires plasma blasts while the other sends out electric shots. Quill can fire one at a time or both at once for an even more powerful attack.

These small blasters do more than take out pirates and nameless Sakaarans. Star-Lord can deal damage to powerful foes, including his father Ego The Living Planet, and even Thanos during the battle on Titan.

9 Asgardian Daggers

Though Loki proved to be capable with the Scepter in The Avengers, his true talent lies with the dual daggers made from Asgardian steel. They mix that classic Nordic design with the hilt, while the blade shows a more advanced and alien design, fitting with the MCU take on Asgard.

In Thor: Ragnarok, Avengers: Infinity War, and the Loki Disney+ series, the daggers fit one of the MCU’s best anti-heroes’ agile and swift fighting styles, allowing him to deal quick but precise attacks that can end an opponent as quickly as a hit from his brother’s hammer.

8 Falcon Wingsuit

MCU The 10 Best Weapons In The Comic Book Franchise Ranked

Sam Wilson AKA the Falcon (and the new Captain America) has had several variations of his wingsuit but nearly all of them function similarly. Obviously, they allow him to fly as Falcon but he can envelop himself with the wings, providing a bulletproof shield or a battering ram.

Sam’s wingsuit also features attachments such as holsters for machine pistols, an advanced heads-up display in his goggles, and remote drones known as Redwings. With these wingsuits, Falcon was able to fight powered individuals including The Winter Soldier, The Flag Smashers, and US Agent.

7 Iron Man Armor

It’s difficult to pick just one Iron Man suit considering how many there are and they all serve essentially serve the same purpose. From the repulsors in the palms, missile launchers, and countless other gadgets and functions, it’s basically a wearable weapon of mass destruction.

Tony Stark himself would call it anything but a weapon but in the literal sense, Iron Man is indeed a weapon, as shown when later models were able to bring down Asgardians, powerful robots, Captain America, and even draw blood from Thanos.

6 Mjolnir

Mixing advanced smithing with the magic of Odin, Mjolnir became the weapon that defined Thor for centuries as the God Of Thunder. Mjolnir is not the source of Thor’s power but it does help him channel it to summon lightning, fly, and unleash devastating attacks.

However, Mjolnir is not exclusive to Thor: anyone worthy can wield it and others have in the MCU. Vision wielded the hammer to battle Ultron and one of the most famous moments of the MCU featured Captain America lifting and mastering the power of Mjolnir in Avengers: Endgame.

5 Yaka Arrow

Yondu Udonta proved to be a brave member of the Guardians Of The Galaxy, especially when he controlled his technologically advanced arrow with his whistles. He killed a group of Sakaarans in seconds but that pales in comparison to when he upgraded to a prototype fin that allows him to make his Yaka Arrow even stronger.

Yondu was able to take out an entire legion of Ravagers, with the Yaka Arrow then joining the Guardians in battling Ego The Living Planet. The Yaka Arrow turned Yondu from a quirky pirate to a stand-out Guardian and a true hero.

4 Panther Suit

MCU The 10 Best Weapons In The Comic Book Franchise Ranked

Combined with the powers given by the heart-shaped herb, the suit of the Black Panther is a nearly indestructible weapon. Everything from the fabric to the cat-like claws and helmet is synthesized from vibranium, thus allowing it to absorb any attack with ease.

Black Panther can slice through seemingly any material with his claws as well as scale any wall. T’Challa’s second Black Panther suit not only absorbs the damage from attacks but redistributes it into charging kinetic energy for a powerful explosion or extra damage into his melee attacks.

3 Infinity Gauntlet

MCU The 10 Best Weapons In The Comic Book Franchise Ranked

This is what the entire Infinity Saga culminated into with all the movies introducing the six Infinity Stones. When Time, Space, Reality, Power, Mind, and Soul are all combined together into the Infinity Gauntlet, it creates the most powerful weapon in the universe.

Even with just two Infinity Stones, the Gauntlet was enough to lay waste to entire planets. Control over those essential aspects of the universe made Thanos the biggest villain thus far in the MCU. There was another Infinity Gauntlet created by Tony Stark which helped bring back half of the universe killed by Thanos.

2 Vibranium Shield

MCU The 10 Best Weapons In The Comic Book Franchise Ranked

Made from the same vibranium metal as Black Panther’s suit, Captain America’s rounded shield is an iconic staple of the hero. Like any shield, it can block any attack but unlike other metal shields, the vibranium absorbs the vibrations leading to bullets just dropping instead of ricocheting.

Of course, Captain America’s most famous attack with the shield is throwing it like a frisbee to attack enemies or slice through objects. Captain America’s shield constantly disobeys the laws of physics by always returning to him but that adds to the charm and why fans love this shield so much.

1 Stormbreaker

How can Marvel possibly top Mjolnir? The answer was the massive ax/hammer combination known as Stormbreaker with a hilt made from the hardened wood of Groot’s arm. Thor’s entrance into the battle of Wakanda in Avengers: Infinity War wielding Stormbreaker has become famous.

Stormbreaker allowed Thor to become an actual God Of Thunder rather than an extraterrestrial being with god-like abilities. Stormbreaker was able to penetrate and impale Thanos as if it were a knife carving through butter and destroyed Chitauri ships and forces with ease.
