The DC and Marvel Heroes Forum: The Most Tragic Hero Deaths

I'm sure some of have read Justice League of America (Vol. 3) No. 4, (which came out last week), or a least heard about what happened. It indeed featured a death no one, not even me, expected to happen; the character who died in that issue (at least apparently) was Selina Kyle/Catwoman, but when or if she comes back from the dead later has yet to be determined. This brings me to present today's topic on The DC and Marvel Heroes Forum. For this, you are invited to share your comemntaries on what hero or heroine deaths in DC and/or Marvel comic book stories made you sad the most. I'm sure a lot of us have experieneced comic book death stories that amde us sad we think things like "why did he or she have to die?" and "I hope there's a way for the heroes to bring those dead heroes back from the dead later on in the series or this series is now forever ruined". Yes, over the years, numerous heroes and heroines from both sides (DC and Marvel) have kicked the bucket, only for some of them to manage to later return to life (like Jason Todd/Robin, Clark Kent/Superman, Oliver Queen/Green Arrow, Steve Rogers/Captain America, and Tony Stark/Iron Man), proving that in the realms of fiction (depending on what franchise of course), death isn't always a premanent thing, buts sometimes what appears to be a death in one story is later confirmed by a later one not to be a real one at all (ex: after Bruce Wayne's/Batman's apparent death in Final Crisis, later stories in canon DC Universe continuity established that Batman did not really die, but rather he was teleported to the past while what appeared to be a killed Batman was a clone). Anyway, sound off your comments.
