at the most notable examples of
superheroes dealing out lethal justice
to their villainous foes since we are
not focusing on one particular medium
kills from comics films and video games

control and they’ll kill you for it
number 10 The Punisher kills Howard
took everything for me in a scene which
evokes Achilles desecration of Hector’s
body in the Iliad the ending of the
Punisher was no less poetic after
systematically killing off Howard Saints
loved ones as retribution for his own
family’s massacre Frank Castle gives his
hated adversary a sporting chance in a
western-style standoff once he beat
Saint to the draw and mortally wounds
him the punisher ties the mob boss to a
car and sends him to a fiery grave
combining brutality with sheer
humiliation the Punishers revenge on his
mortal enemy is dramatic kill befitting
number nine Wolverine kills Deadpool
x-men origins Wolverine just try to
finally figured out how to shut you up
say what you will about this Wolverine
film but how often do you get a
superhero movie that ends with the hero
cutting the villains head off while the
first big screen version of Deadpool was
a vast departure from the comics it did
provide Wolverine with a formidable foe
to battle in the film’s climax with some
help from Sabretooth Wolverine engages
Deadpool in a duel to the death atop a
nuclear reactor despite all of his
additional powers though the mute
Deadpool is ultimately overwhelmed by
the feral mutant brothers and ends up
number eight dark man kills stracke dark
man who could have imagined that a slimy
corporate crook would be so good at
boxing battling atop a skyscraper
construction site dark man and murderous
billionaire Louie strack fight it out
over dark man’s captive girlfriend Julie
she doesn’t date freaks track initially
has the upper hand when it comes to
fisticuffs but once he refers to dark
man as a freak he triggers the hideous
hero’s volatile temper and receives a
rage-fueled beatdown Strack then
attempts to finish the fight with a nail
gun but before long is kicked off the
scaffold and left dangling over the edge
by dark man instead of admitting defeat
however Streck makes the critical error
of under estimating his opponent’s
[Music]
I’m learning to live with a lot of
things number seven Tim trach kills the
Joker Batman Beyond return of the Joker
say hello JJ this was as dark as
animated Batman stories dared to get
taking place within the first Batman
Beyond film this scene is actually
flashback to the earlier days of when
Bruce Wayne was still Batman and was
working alongside Batgirl and Robin
after being kidnapped tortured and
brainwashed by the Joker Tim Drake
reveals Batman’s true identity to the
Clown Prince of Crime inside Arkham
Asylum after Joker gets the upper hand
on Batman by stabbing him in the leg he
hands a gun to Tim and tells the former
Robin to murder his mentor luckily for
the Dark Knight Tim is able to break his
conditioning and shoots the Joker
instead in a truly disturbing scene
too late blade although one could refer
to blade as a superhero a more accurate
description of him would be a vampire
exterminator
needless to say then that he is quite at
ease when it comes to killing his
enemies and the first installment of the
blade trilogy the titular day Walker
crosses swords with deacon frost the
vampire who infected blades mother while
she was pregnant with him while blade
manages to deal out several devastating
strikes cross god-like powers allow him
to regenerate instantly blade then takes
a different approach and injects Frost
with an overdose of his vaccine which
causes frost to erupt in an explosion of
number five Superman kills the Joker
injustice gods among us Louis was first
Krypton now metropolis people you love
tend to blow up don’t they
ah Superman don’t well the Joker may
have been safe in the assumption that
Batman would never kill him he
definitely made an error in assuming the
same about Superman drugging Superman
into thinking a pregnant Lois Lane was
doomsday the Joker intentionally caused
the Man of Steel to murder his beloved
wife and unborn child grief-stricken and
consumed by an unforgiving bloodlust not
even Batman can reason with Superman
before he kills the Joker in a fit of
rage by tearing out his heart although
shocking at the time in a way Superman’s
actions were poetic justice given that
the Joker figuratively did the same to
before Superman kills doomsday Superman
number 75 while a lot of comic book fans
may not be comfortable with Superman
killing his enemies there is little
debate when it comes to doomsday an
adversary so destructive that he
defeated the Justice League before going
toe-to-toe with the Man of Steel
doomsday is a virtually unstoppable
killing machine who cannot be contained
or reformed realizing this Superman
fights doomsday with all of his resolve
and the ensuing slugfest decimates much
of Metropolis culminating with two
Titans delivering simultaneous death
blows to each other
although doomsday often gets the credit
for killing Superman it’s also important
to note that Superman returned the favor
number three Deadpool kills Ajax
Deadpool four or five moments that’s all
it takes to be a hero
Francis definitely had this one coming
after putting Wade Wilson through hell
to transform him into a mutant Ajax
makes the second mistake of kidnapping
his beloved Vanessa while colossus and
negasonic teenage warhead deal with
angel dust Deadpool and Ajax have their
own personal battle which concludes
after the cargo-ship they are fighting
on overturns the Merc with a mouth then
beats Ajax to a bloody pulp before
learning that Ajax can’t in fact cure
him of his deformity with no further
reason to let him live Deadpool prepares
to blow Francis’s brains out before
colossus gives an impassioned speech for
mercy needless to say he ends up wasting
his breath and his breakfast the way the
world sees us
the way we why you were droning on
number two Batman kills the Joker Batman
The Dark Knight Returns in this grim
masterpiece written by Frank Miller and
allegedly reformed Joker murders an
entire talk-show audience before being
chased to Gotham’s County Fair by a
vengeful Batman with all of the Joker’s
victims weighing heavily on his mind
Batman resorts to vicious tactics like
throwing batarangs in the Joker’s eyes
and firing at him with a revolver in an
attempt to halt his killing spree once
and for all
finally cornering him in the tunnel of
love Batman
snaps the Joker’s neck just enough to
paralyze him satisfied that he forced
his old enemy to lose control The Joker
finishes himself off by wrenching his
number one Superman kills General Zod
Man of Steel
[Music]
although the final fight between
Superman and General Zod in the first
installment of the DC EU generated a ton
of controversy their fights conclusion
demonstrated that Superman takes no joy
in killing with General Zod intent on
using his heat vision to slaughter some
innocent civilians
Superman is forced to make a judgment
call and in fatica Lee snaps the
genocidal villains neck
although killing Zod saved the lives of
his intended victims Superman lets out a
cry of anguish and remorse over having
to resort to such brutal methods to save
lives do you agree with our picks check
