I thought number one was going to be everyones' death in Apokolips War

@jayraider521614 3 years ago (edited)

Honestly Justice League: Apokolips War could fill this entire list alone

@arnoldjones2435 3 years ago

Shazam’s death in the War was pretty horrific as well.

How did Jason Todd getting pretty much beaten to death with a crowbar and then blown up in a building by Joker not make this list? Under the Red Hood was brutal

You know it’s a real shame that Flashpoint WW didn’t get her ass kicked after she killed Billy Batson. Seeing her having that smug look on her face after she did it irks me. Especially since she cheated in their fight.

You know you could put all the deaths from Apokolips War on here 😬

The DCAU is on a whole different level of story telling and world building. Proves that a solid story will ultimately make or break a franchise.

@aceair3281 3 years ago

Surprised Jason Todd's death at the hands of the joker didn't make the list

@mr.decencykeepinitreal6348 3 years ago

‘Justice League Dark: Apokolips War.’
‘The Death of Superman.’

My top 2 most favorite DCAMU movies.

@mr.decencykeepinitreal6348 3 years ago

The uncut version of ‘Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker’ is also one of my top 8 most favorite DC animated movies of all time.

Fun Fact: Joker Venom was invented as a more family friendly method of mayhem for the joker to use

DC's animated movies were never strangers to horrific deaths, but apokolips movie took that on another level, for the first time I was afraid of Darkside

@BULLETSCARER 3 years ago

Honestly, Shazam in Justice League Dark Apokolips War, that was just, damn. That one hit really hard, especially since it's a kid, knowing he's about to die.

@briansherrod1916 3 years ago

Shoot the Apokolips War could take all ten spots by itself! It was insanely brutal!

Avengers Infinity War: “I have the most shocking deaths in superhero movie history”
Apokolips War: hold my beer

KILLER FROST!! It’s KILLER FROST!! They even SAY IT IN THE CLIP YOU UPLOADED AND YOU STILL GET IT WRONG!!! HOW!?

@DuduEdu001 3 years ago

Truth be told, all deaths of war of apokolips and suicide squad are the most brutal

@justapeacefulmanwhosbornin7291 3 years ago

I literally despise the animated version of Flashpoint Wonder Woman for stabbed and killed the Flashpoint Billy Batson, one of the S.H.A.Z.A.M kids based on the 2011 comic book version written and co-created by Geoff Johns.

When I think the DC Animated Universe I think all those Bruce Timm animated shows that all canonically connect, Batman: TAS, Superman: TAS, The New Batman Adventures, Batman Beyond, Justice League, Justice League Unlimited, Static Shock and The Zeta Project, but sometimes I here others refer to it as pretty much every DC cartoon show and movie that each exist in their own continuity.
