10 Most Emotional Comic Book Moments Of The Decade
8. Superman's Speech To Jon - DCeased #5
As one of many zombie apocalypse-themed superhero comic spin-offs, DCeased had precisely no right to be as good as it ended up being from start to finish. The series perfectly blended gory violence, witty humour, and enough heartwrenching and warming moments than anyone with a heart problem was definitely at risk from going into cardiac arrest.
This reaches untold heights of emotional when Superman is infected by the zombie virus, and goes to tell his wife and child goodbye. While you'd expect this scene to just be sad, it's so much more than that, as Superman's words to Jon - to be kind and brave, and above all to be willing to make mistakes in order to do good - make it a legitimate tear-jerker, as you know despite all the suffering he's experienced, Clark's last moments aren't spent being upset for his own sake - no, they're spent being proud of his son.
Despite all the undead chaos of the comic, it's nice to see that even a totally bloodthirsty series can have its moments here and there.
