8 Times Black Panther Was Forced To Kill

2. Impaling Ulysses Klaw (Again)

Klaw, Klaw, Klaw. For a hero with very loose policies on taking lives, it's nowhere near surprising that his arch-nemesis has evolved over the years to have more lives than a cat running an identity theft scheme. However, it is this killing of Klaw at the hands of King T'Challa that stands head and shoulders above the rest.

In the midst of a civil war in Wakanda, Black Panther squares off against Klaw, disarming his sound cannon arm and taking down his henchmen. Soaking up blasts of Klaw's eye lasers thanks to his vibranium-lined suit, Black Panther approaches his now-terrified mortal enemy with a spear in hand, about to deliver the final blow.

It is here that this kill becomes notable, where the Black Panther delivers one of the coldest lines in the history of Marvel Comics:

"Klaw, one question. Do you have any children?"

"No, I don't."

'Good. Because I would have to kill them too."

Cold. Menacing. Merciless. A remarkable kill from a Marvel legend.
