Worst Comic Book Death: Lonliness

Comic book deaths are something that need to be handled well in order not to pi$$ off fans. There are many different types of deaths that can occur, but I think the worst/ most heart breaking death are what I call Lonely Deaths. The best examples of these deaths are with Ultimate Spiderman and Ted Kord. Both of these guys  were great heroes, but due to their reputation in their respected universes, no one took them seriously. This ended up causing Ted to loose alot of his money, and in the end get shot and killed by the villain. The same occurred with Ultimate Spidey, since no one respected him, no one helped or encouraged him to do good, and the one time he actually helped out (took a bullet for Captain America) and needed help (after all his enemies escaped jail after he got shot), no one was there to help him because they were too busy dealing with things they felt were more important than Spidey's villains escaping or Spidey getting shot. In the end, Spidey got killed by his enemies.
 
 The short version of this type of death is when a hero isn't taken seriously tries to go out and fix a problem, no one helps, and everyone who doesn't believe him/her or doesn't help him/her, pushes the hero closer and closer to death, heck, before Ted Kord died, Martian Manhunter said that he didn't trust Ted and that even though Wonder Woman did,  MM called Diana too trusting and dismissed the idea that Ted was actually on to something. 
 
 
This death sucks because you can see slowly and steadily how much closer the hero is getting towards death, and no one likes to see their favorite hero suffer, but there is a silver lining in this, and that is that these heroes usually die HEROIC deaths as part of this type of death, they go out and save the world by themselves, and end up proving everyone wrong, showing them that they had more balls than all of those who mocked them.
 
 
 

 Dang it...

Ted and Pete are two great examples of this type of death, let us hope that no other hero has to go through this soon.
You did good Pete
