Superheroes or Superheroines have a special place in our hearts. Though we know they did not exist, still, they sometimes have helped us in getting over our bad times. And it is the reason why some of us are so attached to these characters that it hurts when we read/see any of these comic heroes dying. However, we know they would return back eventually, but still, for the time being, it does cause a state of “NO WAY MAN!”. If you are one among those crazy as* comic fans, you’d surely enjoy reading these biggest superhero deaths.
