10 Dumbest Ways Superheroes Have Died
9. Ch'p Vs. Traffic
Seeing a noble hero defeated by a yellow truck shouldn't be funny, by all means. But there's something about the idea of a Green Lantern - defenders of the galaxy, capable of doing battle with Sinestro and cosmic entities of untold power - being dunked on by a truck full of ice-cream or groceries that's just totally hilarious.
In fact, the entire comic this belongs to - the bizarre gem that is the second issue of Green Lantern: Mosaic - is almost entirely this level of weird, with the majority of it committed to showing us how Ch'p fits in amongst his fellow animal brethren.
The comic does make you feel kinda bad for the superpowered squirrel though, as it is revealed that it's a drunk driver, which means it's more irresponsible driving than rodent recklessness that's the fault of Ch'p's demise.
Exactly why the writers decided to have the magic rodent to have a death equal parts tragic and dumb is anyone's guess - although likely this was entirely just to see if they could.
