The Most Violent Deaths In Comics To Make You Squirm In Your Chair

The comics world isn’t exactly famous for its subtlety. Particularly not when it comes to the deaths of its characters. Comics have given us some of the most deranged, twisted and gruesome deaths ever imagined.

And we can always count on our favorite comics writers and artists to bring the most violent comics deaths to life on the page. Even if we won’t ever get to see them translated to the big screen. So here are the worst offenders in the comic universe.

Doomsday v. Superman

Yes, we know Superman didn’t exactly stay dead, but this ‘90s storyline gave us one hell of an epic battle.

It nearly destroyed Metropolis altogether, and it’s so important to the Superman legacy that Zack Snyder included his own take on it in last year’s “Batman v Superman.”

The Corinthian is one of Dream’s creations in Neil Gaiman’s “Sandman” series who has mouths for eyes and enjoys spending his free time eating the eyes of numerous victims and attending serial killer conventions. Nightmare fuel, for sure.

Dr. Manhattan v. Rorschach

Rorschach isn’t really the nicest “hero” in comics, but he definitely didn’t deserve to be completely disintegrated at the hands of Dr. Manhattan. And all just for having good f—ing detective skills.

Midnighter v. The Commander

You know what would be the worst possible way to die? Being sodomized with a jackhammer. Yep. We’re pretty sure that hits No. 1 for us.
