10 Most Powerful Characters Killed By Superman

10. Doomsday -The Death Of Superman

Kicking things off with the most well-known instance of a Super-murder, the Kryptonian monster’s death also resulted in the iconic hero biting the dust as well (though their respective deaths were not as definitive as is expected in the realm of comics). Following his escape from his underground tomb, Doomsday went on a destructive rampage throughout the country that eventually attracted the Justice League’s attention.

After a brief but violent encounter with the behemoth, only Clark was left standing to face the new and powerful threat. Doomsday’s animalistic rage and sheer might forced the hero to tap into reserves of power he had previously held back just to keep up with his opponent, and naturally this display of strength proved to be dangerous for both combatants as well as the various environments they clashed in.

While the Man of Steel was able to put down the threat before it escalated any further, it came at the expense of his own life. Subsequent encounters with the monster have seen the hero win by the skin of his teeth due to Doomsday's terrifying regenerative/adaptative abilities.
