Avengers vs. X-Men
Marvel Comics' 2012 event. As a repercussion from the events that took place in The Children's Crusade, Fear Itself, Schism, and X-Sanction, the Avengers and X-Men go to war over the return of the Phoenix Force.
Who dies in AvX? (based on a pool a friend and I created)
For me its Tie Between Iron Fist, Red Hulk, Gambit, and Beast. The rest of the characters are fulfilling important roles or have there own comics. And its been shown that Red Hulk, Gambit and Wolverine might die soon

Cyclops.
Marvel's events usually kill off someone. And Cyke isn't looking good so far.

So damn obviously the Protector. When he suddenly steps up to be part of the A-Team in AvX #1 it couldn't be more transparent they're setting him up to fall.
Honestly? Iron Fist. He's being built up to have some connection to the Phoenix Force, and appears to be acting as a mentor/protector for Hope in the previews. I think he will sacrifice himself to save her, and his death is what will be the deciding factor for the Avengers that are on the fence about who to side with. The Dark Avengers are replacing the Thunderbolts, and Luke Cage is being billed as their leader. Could the death of his best friend cause Cage to turn his back on Cap and the mainstream Avengers? We'll see.
It actually surprises me that so many people think Cyclops will die. As a big Cyclops fan, I'm used to people ragging on him (and honestly, it's usually for very idiotic reasons), but I don't think Marvel is going to kill off the leading character of a series that has just started (the new Uncanny X-Men). Especially when the entire basis for the series revolves around Cyclops' Extinction Team and his goals for it, we've barely seen anything from them (two completed arcs, and one more before AvX).

I'm so happy you like Noh. Someone to feel my pain.
We can both act just like the emo kid that Bendis writes him as when he predictably dies. </3

@Strider92: cyclops will kick your butt
He'd try but he'd probably rage quit before he even started.
I definitely agree that Hope might die since she's the one who is meant to be the Phoenix and we saw what happened to Jean Grey when she possessed the Phoenix Force. As to who will die on this list, I would probably say Cyclops, even though he's big right now, since the direction that Marvel is taking him suggests that he will die.Honestly?? Hope's not on this list!

I'm picturing that Hope will absorb the Phoenix and try to control it, fulfilling her Messiah duties, she decides to kill it so it will never harm anyone else and she dies with it!! Before it kills Cyclops of course!! So I really want Hope, Cyclops, and the Phoenix to die in this event!! Anybody else is just collateral!!
Yeah, I think that it would make more sense if Hope dies since this event seems to revolve around her.@Rabbitearsblog said:

I wouldn't shed one tear or have any concern over her death!!
Me neither.@Rabbitearsblog said:

Seeing as Marvel's running trend lately is to kill someone off in every event, I'd say Cyclops is the first to come to mind.
- What dies is the readers last hopes that Marvel will ever have an event worth the effort barring major changes in the braintrust
