10 Most Emotional Comic Book Moments Of The Decade

Of all the possible series that you'd predict to have an emotionally loaded moment within it, Forever Evil has to be at the categorical bottom of that list. Similarly, if you made a list of characters that you'd expect to have a touching heart to heart with one another, the rag-tag duo of Lex Luthor and Bizarro would be the bottom of yet another list.

Despite this, the pair manage a shockingly sweet moment in Forever Evil, when Bizarro refuses to enter a portion of the villain's escape route because it's dark, and he's afraid of the dark. Though Lex initially berates Bizarro to try and convince him, he realises this won't work, and so instead tells his creature an emotional story about how the only time he truly felt fear is when he watched his sister slowly pass away from an incurable disease, and how his fear of failing her led to him never trying to cure her, despite his confidence he could.

Touched by these words - and by Lex's message that Bizarro needs to try and overcome his fear - Bizarro utters the words "Bizarro... try." which was a pretty huge moment in of itself, because these were the first words Bizarro would speak in this version of the universe, leaving you almost rooting for the bad guys.
