Zack Snyder’s Justice League: 27 WTF Moments

3. Steppenwolf Gets Decapitated

Zack Snyder's Justice League Wonder Woman
Warner Bros.

As horrendous as it may be to see Wonder Woman turning terrorists into a fine bloody paste, it's decidedly less problematic when she decapitates Steppenwolf with the Sword of Athena at the end of the final battle.

Considering how lame the villain's death was in the theatrical cut - being swarmed by his own Parademons as his fear increased - this was a far cooler way to dispense with him, all the more so as Darkseid then callously steps on his head after it flies through the portal.

Good riddance, Steppenwolf - at least you died well this time.
