3. Rocket Raccoon
4. Peter Parker

Basically who do you find funniest?
 
Generally speaking, I would say Peter, but in the MCU, probably Stark. He just seems to be written that way more so than the others. Even in Age of Ultron, lines like "He beat me by one second" just show how he always manages to roll with the punches and have a retort or one-liner.
 
Stark

Honorable mention for for Dr. Banner. He's totally unassuming and low-key funny.
 
"Just a typical Homecoming, on the outside of an invisible jet, fighting my girlfriend’s dad.”

I hope Spidey gets more like this in the sequel.
 
In the comics it's Spider-Man, not even close. In the MCU though Peter's a rookie at quips as well as super heroics.

Tony Stark gets my vote.
 
Stark, Star-Lord and Rocket are all great on this front. Parker is a junior in this aspect but will be learning from the best and hopefully can get to the level of Spidey in the comics asap.
 
Hopefully it’s Spider-Man one day, it’s kind of always been his thing
 
In the MCU it's probably Tony, but only because he's had a massive head start. He had six years of quipping before Star Lord and Rocket showed up, and 8 years before Spidey did. I think they're all pretty close though.
 
Agent Coulson has had some great lines in Agents of SHIELD. "Cool origin story, bro" comes to mind right now.

In terms of pure comedy? Drax.

Agreed. I can't even think of " Mantis look out !" without smiling

Thor has some great quips in Ragnarok.

As for quips Quill is my favorite.

"I'm distracting you, you big turd blossom."

I feel that Tony Stark just runs his mouth so much, and most of it's nonsense, so the individual quips are hard to separate.

Having said all that Spider Man really shone in Civil War, that's the kind of patter I loved about 80s Spidey.
 
'I'll be riding in the Humvee. You can ride in the hum-drumvee.'

Tony. It ain't close.
 
Tony and as said, it's not even close.

He has the good luck of being played by RDJ who not only can get the most out of every line he also writes a lot of his own quips.
 
Stark but Shuri is up there.
