The MCU characters need to depend on one another quite often in their line of work. Loyalty is definitely an important trait and is possessed by heroes and villains alike. So here are the 10 most loyal characters in the MCU.

1. Steve Rogers aka Captain America

Captain America is definitely the poster boy for qualities such as trust and loyalty. This man stands by his allies and would die for his fellow soldiers. His loyalty is most visible with respect to Bucky Barnes aka Winter Soldier. Despite being torn apart by time and circumstances, Steve Rogers never lost faith in his old buddy and always managed to see the good in him. His loyalty even led him to fight Iron Man in the MCU during Civil War. He is also extremely loyal to his country and to S.H.I.E.L.D.

2. Rhodey aka War Machine

Rhodes has stood by Iron Man ever since they went to MIT for college and became friends. He has been there for him through every Iron Man movie in the MCU and also been on Team Iron Man during Civil War. He is nothing if not loyal. Despite all of Tony’s flaws and errors such as creating Ultron, he has supported him unconditionally.

3. Wong

We have already listed reasons why Wong should be the Sorcerer Supreme. One of the important ones is his loyalty. This loyalty is to both Doctor Strange and the Mystic arts. He has always supported Strange despite his rash decision of using the identity spell on Spider-Man. Moreover, Wong has also been loyal to the Mystic arts and the Sanctum Sanctorum. During Infinity Wars, when Strange was abducted by Ebony Maw, Wong prioritized his loyalty to the protection of the Sanctums.

4. Heimdall

As the gatekeeper of Asgard he was loyal to the people and the place and carried his job to fruition each and every time. He even sacrificed his life to save Hulk during Thanos’ attack on the Statesman in the MCU.

5. Sam Wilson aka Falcon

They might not be on the side of heroes but they are as loyal as they can get. As the children of Thanos they carry out his every task and fulfill every order. They would put their lives on the line without thinking twice. This kind of loyalty is definitely hard to come by and its pretty evident why the mad Titan trusted them as much.
