10 Comic Heroes Who Killed Their Biggest Rival
8. Daredevil Kills Kingpin - Daredevil: End Of Days #1
One of the more famous occasions wherein a superhero has killed their arch-nemesis, Daredevil: End of Days saw Daredevil finally murder his long-time enemy and biggest problem: the Kingpin of Crime himself, Wilson Fisk.
The start of End of Days sees Fisk attempt to return to both America and Hell's Kitchen, seeking to be a citizen again after his crimes saw him leave the country. Understandably upset at one of his worst enemies coming right back into his territory, Daredevil offers Fisk an ultimatum: leave Hell's Kitchen, or be murdered by its only costumed vigilante.
Underestimating how serious this threat was, Kingpin decided to goad Daredevil further by fighting him, which earns him a heavy beatdown, resulting in his head being caved in on the New York pavement. It ends up resulting in the Man Without Fear's death, sure, but the satisfaction alone likely makes this one well worth it.
