Val Armor's is up there.But nothing beats Tommy Monaghan's. Guy went out like a man, rushing down an army just so he can headshot the guy that was hounding him, and threatening his woman. Got the job done, and then he died.
Although Nat sticking by his friend when he knew he was gonna die comes close.
Another great death was Human Torch in FF 587. "A billion to one? You think I'm afraid? FLAME ON!"
Aunt May dying in ASM 400. Supergirl dying in COIE.
Blue Beatle's death was also pretty good. Even when the rest of the justice league considers him to be a joke, with his best friend critically wounded, and no one available to provide backup, he still went headfirst into checkmate's headquarters, uncovered an incredibly insidious plot against every superhero in to world, nearly escaped and when he was given the option to join them or die he tells the guy holding the gun to go to hell.
