Do any PEOPLE ever die in the comics?

I'm getting rather irritated that everyone is always okay.

Circuit Breaker almost gets killed, but... No. Not as far as I remember, although I haven't read all the comics yet.

ok, seeing as you said PEOPLE, I am taking this beyond TF....

In the x-men comics Pyro died and has been dead for a long long time now.
He had the legacy virus and was dying, in his last few days of life he had a change of heart and realised he was wrong in life and ended up being a hero saving Senator Kelly from an asassination attempt. That's the kind of comic death it would cheapen by bringing the person back (kinda like Whedon did with Colly )

Way to answer her question, Hot Rod.

Now I remember other deaths outside Transformers. Being a Batman fan, I can tell there are deaths there. A very known issue is "a Death in the Family" (not sure if that's the original title), where the second Robin is killed by the Joker. This was a story requested by a survey among Batman fans. Another remarkable case can be when the third Robin shows up. His mother is killed too and his father falls into a coma.

If you go further, there is also the great "Return of the Dark Knight", when Batman finally gets wild and kills the Joker... Or any of the Sin City stories. Indeed, there's killing into comics too.

"the comics" = TF comics

Sorry, I should've been clearer.

as for USG1, good luck. sparkplug witwicky's heart attack is about as close as ya get.


WAIT.... just remembered... yes, someone dies.

Don't tell me who, but please tell me it's NOT of natural causes.

Nah, you were plenty clear. Hot Rod just likes to seize any chance he gets to diss Joss Whedon (not that I blame him).

The death is excellent!! The uk comic had a load of deaths mostly autobots, which you will see shortly!!

i think she's talking human death. transformers can be rebuilt, especially with enough nucleon i think i've only see a couple tf's actually DIE... though the only one that was really emotional for me was in beast wars. my favorite episode of anything, anywhere.

Ooops my mistake. Nucleon, love that nucleon, hey have you ever been in the bathroom after shockwave has been on the radioactive fuel? Say no more!!!!

aye, i'm hunting down a replica of you revived on nucleon along with that neutro-fusion tank you drove for a while.

If I remember wher I parked it you can have it!

Didn't people die in the Headmaster series?

I have just finioshed reading those again. The original head of Fortress Maximus died, Galen. He was killed in a volcanic eruption while trying tos save Spike, who became the new head of Fort Max.

in the xmen vs apocolypse most of the brotherhood and the xmen die and prof x died before then and magneto took over the xmen, superman was killed by doomsday

Its The Dark Knight Returns and Batman does not kill the Joker.

What happens?
