Line 133:
* ''Ultimatum'', [[Ultimate Marvel]]'s big [[Crisis Crossover]] before the title reboot, cut a wide swath through the heroes and villains of the canon. By the time it's over, around 70% of the named characters and millions-strong chunks of international populations are dead.
** Make that 70% of named ''mutants''. Looking at the casualty list on [[The Other Wiki]], there are nearly two dozen ''[[Ultimate X-Men]]'' characters dead (including Xavier, Magneto, Cyclops, and Wolverine), compared to a handful from ''[[The Ultimates]]'' (Ant-Man and Wasp), ''[[Ultimate Fantastic Four]]'' (Dr. Doom and Dr. Storm (Sue and Johnny's dad)), and miscellaneous heroes (Daredevil and Dr. Strange). The ''[[Ultimate Spider-Man]]'' cast got out relatively unscathed, even gaining a few [[Transplant|Transplants]] from the other series (Iceman and Human Torch).
* The ''[[Legion of Super-Heroes (Comic Bookcomics)|Legion of Super-Heroes]]'' storyline "End of an Era", which rebooted the Legion, ended up by killing off everyone from the old history before restarting history.
* [[Doom Patrol]] pre-dated most of this by pulling a [[Total Party Kill]] in the ''[[Older Than They Think|Sixties]].'' All four of the actual members (The Chief, Rita Farr, Cliff Steele, Larry Trainor) were nuked saving a small fishing village.
* At the end of the prison arc in [[The Walking Dead]], every single character present during the attack from the Governor, including a ''baby'', were brutally murdered, save for Rick and Carl. That's seven of the main characters!
Line 459:
* [[Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors]]: The "Submarine" ending plays it perfectly straight, with every other Nonary Game participant dead and covered in blood, before you get knifed [[In the Back]]. That's every character killed. Of course, Ace feigned death, and the Snake that was dead in Door 3 was not the actual Snake that you met. Snake would probably still die, though.
** The "Axe" ending, quite likely. Clover killed Seven and Santa, killed June and Junpei, and Ace likely killed Lotus to get into door 9. Clover would have killed Ace: she was covered in blood, he had Lotus' bracelet. [[Word of God]] states she was unable to work out the [[Final Exam Boss|kyuu/Q (9/q) puzzle]], and burned in the incinerator.
* ''[[F.E.A.R.]]: Extraction Point'', the [[Canon Dis ContinuityDiscontinuity|non-canon]] [[Mission Pack Sequel]] to ''[[F.E.A.R.]]'', ends with all the protagonist's teammates dead, the protagonist himself on the verge of death, having failed to defeat the [[Big Bad]], and [[The End of the World as We Know It]] looming.
** The actual canon continuation, ''FEAR 2'', isn't much better... Every ally that protagonist Michael Beckett comes into contact with except one dies throughout the course of the game, and Beckett himself is ''raped'' by the [[Big Bad]] at the very end, his fate after that left hanging.
* ''[[Dead Space (video game)|Dead Space]]'' has you see everyone die, except Isaac, who goes on to the sequel ''[[Dead Space 2]]''.
