10 Most Disgusting Comic Book Deaths

5. Kevin's Smiling Demise - Sin City: The Hard Goodbye #13

Spider Man Dead
Dark Horse

It's hard to think of Frank Miller's seminal Sin City without its most important death - that of the series' major villain, Kevin, who our protagonist discovers has been kidnapping women, torturing them, eating them, and then mounting their heads on a plaque like hunted deer.

As such, Marv decides to create an equally unpleasant end for Kevin, which is set into motion when our hero discovers that his enemy owns a pet wolf, that he also feeds women to.

And so Marv leads Kevin out into the land where he keeps his pet, before beating him to a pulp. But he's not done there - not by a long shot. Marv then hacksaws off Kevin's arms and legs, applying tourniquets to prevent this from killing him. This said, he does let a little blood slip on purpose, just to allow Kevin's pet wolf to pick up the delicious scent of his master, before eating all of him but his head.

While it's not entirely 'gory' per se, because the art style doesn't quite allow for it, it is still super disgusting - especially because throughout all this Kevin smiles silently and ominously, freaking out both Marv and the reader themselves.
