Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many businesses, including the comic book industry, are struggling to stay alive. Because of this, the number of token “shocking deaths” in comic-book-related media has been pretty low thus far. Movie premieres were pushed back, issues of comics got online releases, TV series got cut, and so on. But there were still some freaky casualties nonetheless.
Let’s see which superheroes kicked the bucket in 2020!
1. King Shark
When you’re a member of the Suicide Squad, you know you’re going to die. And so in issue #1, we see King Shark tearing one of the metahumans in half, before the squad marries up the rest of the so-called Revolutionaries. One of the captured metas was Fin, who saw his brother get torn to shreds by the big bulky King Shark. But now they have to work together, which could be problematic. And so it is. During the next mission underwater, Fin shanks King Shark and sics a whole bunch of sharks at him using his powers. Oh, and he connects his and KS’s minds so that KS could see his body being devoured. Sweet-sweet revenge.
2. Witchfire
In Justice League Dark series, similarly to the Suicide Squad, no one’s ever safe, and the fiery warlock Witchfire was not an exception. The whole magical side of the DC hero pantheon is currently fighting the Upside-Down-Man, who has the power to suck the magic out of people. Their next target is Circe, a powerful witch planning something unspeakable. Wonder Woman is sent to the Hecate’s realm where she finds Witchfire, but while her spirit roams free, Circe possesses Diana’s body and kick some major butt after summoning the Injustice League Dark. Back in the spirit realm, Diana makes a deal with the Upside-Down Man to help her get into her body. He says: “sure, with pleasure!” and rips Witchfire’s throat off. That wasn’t the deal? Too bad.
