This thread is a bit of a change of pace (and likely uncharacteristically morbid on my part).

Which character has the top body count (i.e., number of kills actually shown, not simply stated, on panel) in their career?

Also, who has the best, most graphic, most brutal on panel kill?



Discuss.

Galan007
I assume you aren't looking for characters like Galactus to be mentioned?

Bentley
Kang has killed countless in the many wars he has waged.

Kid Miracleman was quite a graphic killer.

Correct.

Malicious intent is a requisite.

Think more along the lines of Hank Henshaw blowing up Coast City. Things in that vein.

Galactus or Anti-Monitor type instances aren't what I'm looking for.

If malicious intent is required then Kang wouldn't count.

Marquis of Death?

Gecko4lif
Black adam?
Superboy prime?

Cubey
No Thanos? For shame.

Bouboumaster
Thanos is right up there

It should't count cause they didn't stay dead.

Darth Jello
Without going into the cosmic beings or gods who have wiped out solar systems, the top killers (who've directly killed, not ordered murders) would be The Joker, Wolverine, Bullseye, Elektra, The Punisher, Typhoid Mary, Apocalypse, Romulus, Deadpool, Sabretooth, Nuke, Nitro, and Kingpin.

I'm not that big a DC fan so most of those were Marvel characters but each of those characters has personally killed at least 1,000 people.

In terms of the most graphically horrific murders, it's a three way tie between Joker, Bullseye, and Sabretooth. They kill with sick creativity and they kill children.

Just because they were resurrected doesn't change the fact that he killed them.

King Hyperion killed his universe, right?

You think the Anti-Monitor didn't have malicious intent?

illadelph12
It's not that. It's that the Anti-Monitor is to high end. In COIE he consumed numerous inhabited universes into himself via the anti matter wave. That's not what I'm looking for.

I am looking for which character has the most murders, and most brutal murders, on panel, with scans.

I guess to help narrow things down, character must be <Thanos. Using characters like Anti-Monitor or Galactus defeats the purpose of the thread.

Black bolt z
Even without IG and HOTU feats thanos is still up there.

And I gotta give the most brutal kill(at least from what i've seen)to either sentry from seige or ripping out souls from DONG(no spoilers I haven't finished it).

Joker and Black Adam probably rank up there then.

More than that, in Annihilation he killed billions of Kree.

Annihilus killed TONS of ppl during the Annihilation War, wiping out most of the Skrulls.

AsbestosFlaygon
Personally, I like the concept of Mr. Zsasz.
His kills are very graphic in nature.

Bouboumaster
Wolverine killed thousands

Darth Jello
I don't think it will ever be shown on panel, but it's been implied that Bullseye can kill people using his turds. How can you get more graphic than that?

I know there are Cosmic characters who have killed far more people than these guys, but I like the realistic approach the writers and artists portray them.

the ninjak
Conan........then Drac he practicly killed someone every issue.

Conan killed at least 10 per issue.

amnesia
black Adam kills everything.

Parmaniac
One of the best/most brutal kills was Sentry ripping Ares in half imo.

King Kandy
Kid Miracleman as stated, both in body count and graphic content he ranks near the top.

rotiart
Punisher from his max series....

lol, that was funny.

We need some scans of these kills. I'm looking for top body count on panel, not simply a character stated to have killed a lot of people. Maybe I wasn't completely clear in the OP.

Which character, over the duration of their existence, has the most kills shown in comics, as in, their kills actually being shown within the pages of the comic book rather than simply being spoken about in dialogue and/or narration? Who has the highest on panel body count?

The most visually graphic or sinister murder category should be easy enough to understand.

Juntai
Joker, most likely.

Juntai
I take that back. Lobo.

Bentley
I'll get you some Kid Miracleman kills, they are just over the top.

Also, if you go by on panel deads Punisher should be up there.

I think wolverine has personally killed more people on panel, graphic deaths shown, than anyone else.

Cassandra nova would be pretty high up too as far as indirect killing goes.

thanos-prime
I would have go with ares i believe it was stated he has killed billions of people.

Stoic
Lobo has the coolest kills, my God he punched a guys head into his a$$!

KingD19
Saint of Killers seems like he should be on this list.

And some people from the Image-verse, like Invincible, Conquest, etc..

Cubey
Monarch should go here too IMO.

Another reason Invincible should be on the list....his alternate selves killed millions of people world wide, and caused billions in property damage. They even killed some of the heroes.

Yes, we're looking for bodies on the floor and the killing act on panel.

Q99
I would bet on Wolverine. He fights hordes of ninjas or Hydra goons so often and he's been around for a long time in so many books.

Konton
Elektra and Wolverine are tied for my vote in the street/low meta category.

Flyattractor
LOBO once cause a planetary wide riot that turned into a holocaust simply by THREATING to kill every one on it.
Has cause the destruction of a micro universe.
Scallped a guys nut sack with HIS meat hook.
Shot a guys face off with a gun. Via shoving int down the guys throat.
Joined a skeet shoot using prisoners from death row.
Kicked a guys ass bone and spine out via a nut shot.
Has ripped several people apart in various ways with HIS bare hands in FAR more imaginative wasy then Sentry.
Has taken on whole armies bare handed just for laughs.
And just read the detailed description of how HE killed of all the people on HIS home planet.
Niceh and Grisley.

Wolvie is a punk in comparison.

I almost think its more fun to use the "mainstream" companies.

Cause when you drift into Indie No Rules Comics.

It almost gets too easy.

One brutal kill for Wolverine is when he's fighting that huge werewolf. Every time it howled it drove him crazy, he fights it only to find a baby boy was inside the creature causing all the problems. Thought he was gonna help the kid, but he just stabs him in the head. Can't remember the issue, but i'll try to find pics.

Ares hands down
he killed like 6billion people throught his life time


in no order but the top
bullseye
joker
punisher

KingD19
We know what Ares did...he's talking about most shown kills and gruesome kills.

Monarch killed a whole universe or something...I think he killed multiple ones.

Evil Invincibles killed a few million people in a matter of hours.

Yeah, it's not confined to Marvel & DC. It's the whole medium. So long as it's from a comic and scans can be provided it's fairplay, regardless of the company that made it.

Wolverine Annual: Roar. It's in the respect thread.

1800 is the number of people he killed post EotS when he was trying to find the kinds body. That counts as off panel I would say.

Wolverine's pretty quick and efficient with a kill. If he is trying to kill you he'll do it pretty quickly without too much unnecessary brutality... it's when he wants to keep you alive that you have a problem. If he wants you to suffer and your lucky then end up with your arm cut in three sections down the entire length of the ulna and the radius... if you aren't lucky he starts cutting off body parts, and as Matsuo can attest he can do that and keep you alive for a long time. Logan thinks there are much worse things to do to a man other than kill him, and if he hates you enough to keep you alive then you are in trouble.

illadelph12
Uh...
