So, remember when Superman killed Zod in Man of Steel and it seemed to cause quite an uproar with fans believing that it wasn’t what Superman would do.
Although, fans on the other side argued that Superman has a history of killing Zod in the comics and in the original Richard Donner’s Superman II (we know there’s a deleted scene where Zod is alive but most fans don’t know that scene exists and it could be argued that Zod, on screen, is dead) – check out the images below for the many deaths of Zod.
And now it seems that even in The CW’s Arrowverse, Superman has once again killed Zod, albeit offscreen.
You may recall we’ve met Superman in the Supergirl series, played by Tyler Hoechlin, and to many comics fans he’s a proper Superman, being optimistic, happy powerful and, you know, smiley. However, last night’s Supergirl revealed that he has a dark side too and that in that universe Zod died at Superman’s hands too – Zod has appeared in Suergirl and was played by Marc Gibbon.
In this week’s episode Mon-El talks about the Legion of Super-Heroes fighting General Zod in the future which make Winn say: “Superman killed Zod.”
Huh… we love that, in all the DC universes some character share a fate and that fate for Zod, is not a good one.
What say you all?
