That said,the MCU is far from the only live-action Marvel franchise to offer violent projects.
R-rated movies and TV-MA TV shows about Marvel heroes, villains, and anti-heroes can be found elsewhere.
Its violent scenes served to heighten the impact of the story, not detract from it.
The show was meant to be more like a lawyer procedural before its creative overhaul.
That meant going all in on the violence.
The action helped ground the series and make its dramatic moments land harder.
Though it does not encompass all he is, the Punisher is there to “punish” criminals.
That is how committed he was to the Punisher’s solo series.
Gunfights, hand-to-hand combat, and more were seen over two seasons of Netflix’sThe Punisher.
However, none of the mainline X-Men films come closer to two specific solo franchises.
R-rated and with a Western/dystopian tone,Loganwas all about the gritty end of Wolverine’s life.
Wolverine and others could really die.

That said, it meantthe heroes also had carte blanche to kill.
There are countless bloody deaths, maimings, and more to make it a violent and emotional affair.
Adding to that,Deadpool & Wolverinebecame the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all time.
The heroes also took it out on villains and Deadpool variants.
That does not take away from what it was able to accomplish in the violence department.
Based on that,Kraven was always expected to be a violent character with no problem killing.
The movie did not run from that, but rather celebrated it.
Well, it is easy to understand why the movie wanted to get to those action set pieces.
As it had a lower budget,Deadpoolmade up for it with creative kills.
While other Deadpool movies would build from that, the film built a solid foundation for the franchise.
However, it deserves a spot for a few reasons.
Not only does it feature quite a few violent sequences, but it wasMarvel Studios' first TV-MA project.
With 5 episodes on a binge format,Echowas quite the ride.
Having started as a villain in the MCU, Alaqua Cox’s Echo is no stranger to killing.
There, Marvel upped its choreography.
Echois not an insanely strong character.
As such, she uses her athleticism and the environment to get the upper hand.
After all, he isthe most violent live-action Marvel character.
While Reynolds tries to one-up the action with each movie,Deadpool 2might take the cake.
It perfectly encapsulates why the character’s stories work so well in live-action.
Deadpool 2is filled with such scenes.
Those includeDeadpool being unceremoniously ripped in half by Juggernaut, with blood and guts splattering all over.
However, this isnot Jon Bernthal’s version of the anti-hero.
Not all were good, but most had great action sequences.
Ray Stevenson was a hulking figure as the Punisher, with his mere presence invoking a sense of danger.
The movie very much used that to its advantage.
The Punisher is part of many bloody sequences, impaling people, maiming them, and more.
