There are numerous references to the subject of '''death'''.  These range from a [[character]]'s death or near-death, to imagining or behaving as though a character has died.  As in many cartoons, when a character dies, the death is usually impermanent — the character may reappear alive, often with no explanation. However, in the Homestar Runner universe, death is kept mainly as a running gag that nearly every cartoon today has, and is no exception in that sense. Usually, death is an empty threat that Strong Bad and several other main characters use, and, excluding the [[Tandy 400]]'s, [[Compy 386]]'s and possibly the [[Lappy 486]]'s deaths, no main universe character has remained dead forever.

Current revision as of 15:11, 23 August 2023

For the personification of death, see Grim Reaper.
"Oh, he looks so peaceful."

There are numerous references to the subject of death. These range from a character's death or near-death, to imagining or behaving as though a character has died. As in many cartoons, when a character dies, the death is usually impermanent — the character may reappear alive, often with no explanation. However, in the Homestar Runner universe, death is kept mainly as a running gag that nearly every cartoon today has, and is no exception in that sense. Usually, death is an empty threat that Strong Bad and several other main characters use, and, possibly excluding Strong Bad's computers, no main universe character has remained dead forever.

Contents

[edit] Appearances

[edit] Bubs

[edit] Charlemagne

  • Homestar Ruiner — Strong Bad claims that the wilted plant on the main floor of the house of Strong is Charlemagne, Strong Sad's plant. He goes on to explain that it had previously been in good health, but decided to commit suicide when Strong Sad began talking to it. Strong Sad denies this, to which Strong Bad replies, "That's not what the note said!"
  • Strong Badia the Free — Strong Bad still claims Charlemagne committed suicide, but says "If only we'd read his journal, we might have seen the signs..."
  • Baddest Of The Bands — Strong Bad now says, "We like to keep the Charlemagne's rotting remains around in hopes he'll one day rise from the grave!"
  • 8-Bit is Enough — Strong Sad throws Charlemagne to Trogdor, in hopes of getting him out of the house. Notably, Strong Sad claims that Charlemagne “went out a true hero”, suggesting that, in his mind, the plant wasn’t entirely dead.

[edit] The Cheat

  • Email caper — Strong Bad sings a song saying how he is so glad that The Cheat is not dead.
  • Email bedtime story — The Cheat's vitals are tested after being bug-bombed in order to go to sleep. Strong Bad also says "If we're lucky, The Cheat will wake up alive the next morning".
  • Date Nite — Strong Bad suggests drowning Marzipan and The Cheat.
  • Doomy Tales of the Macabre — The Cheat is accidentally eaten by Strong Mad while shoveling candy into their mouths. Strong Bad, however, claims this is no big deal and actually happens about four times a day and is how they give The Cheat baths.
  • Skills of an Artist LIVE!!‎ — Strong Bad draws a cross-section of The Cheat, saying "This Cheat is so dead" after being sliced with a Cold Ones bottle.

[edit] Cheat Commandos

[edit] Coach Z

[edit] Frank Bennedetto

  • Email army — Frank Bennedetto "dies" after being kicked by Strong Bad. He is later seen alive in Labor Dabor.
  • Email more armies — A memorial statue for Frank Bennedetto is seen. This may mean either that his death was real, or that his service in the Homestarmy was worthy of commemoration.
    • Another memorial, a picture of Homestar over the defeated Bennedetto, is seen in Strong Badia the Free. Also, if a "Bennedetto" (any inanimate object) is drafted, Homestar will prevent the draft, saying "Hasn't that family suffered enough?" and the like.

[edit] Homeschool Winner

  • Sample of Style — Matt Chapman briefly talks about the time they killed Homeschool Winner off.
  • Email buried — Strong Bad draws a map that shows a skull that appears to belong to Homeschool Winner underneath Strong Badia.

[edit] The King of Town

  • Halloween Fairstival — After seeing an X-ray of the King's heart, Strong Bad is content to "let the King die in peace".
  • Email original — Strong Bad suggests that the King has died twelve times, each time replaced with a new actor, at least one of which may have been an onion. In one Easter egg, Marzipan says that Strong Bad "just made all that stuff up", but another Easter egg shows a graveyard populated solely by Kings of Town I-XI ("Onion King of Town" replaces the grave for "King of Town IV").
  • Doomy Tales of the Macabre — Drowns in a cauldron of mutton stew.
  • Poker Night at the Inventory — The Heavy misunderstands Strong Bad when he asks if he can "take care of the King of Town" for him, thinking Strong Bad wants him to assassinate the King.
  • Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 17.2 — The King of Town says he thinks he's dying.
  • Dangeresque Roomisode 3: Keep my Enemies, LoserPerducci, as played by the King of Town is subject to four assassination attempts that he strong-arms Dangeresque into foiling. Deaths include a thrown knife to the back, a poison dart, a sniper shot and a sattelite crashing down on his head. In the end, Dangeresuqe escapes by poisoning Perducci's cocktail with the remaining poison in the dart, leaving it vague if Perducci will survive.

[edit] Marzipan

  • Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 6.0 — In a prank call pretending to be her doctor, Strong Bad tells Marzipan that she has only 2 weeks to live.
  • Email origins — Marzipan and Homsar are glued together and "left for dead" at The Stick, even though neither one actually dies. Strong Bad later comments on Marzipan's "considerable resistance to death".
  • Date Nite — Strong Bad suggests drowning Marzipan and The Cheat.
  • Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 17.2 — In another prank call claiming to be from Grody Lab Results, Incorporated, Strong Bad tells Marzipan she's dying, or possibly already dead.

  • Email email thunder — Despite dying in the email mentioned above, The Paper returns for a brief moment. Shortly after its return, a spark hits it, thus causing it to burn.

  • Where's The Cheat? — Strong Bad calls Marzipan and pretends to be Homestar Runner, and he tells her that he got mad and killed Pom Pom.
  • Email pom pom — Kevin wonders what would happen to Pom Pom if he was poked with a pin. Strong Bad decides to try this, except that he would also be blindfolded and Pom Pom would be set on fire with the BMW Lighter. He believes that Pom Pom exploded in "a big fiery ball that was visible from space", when in reality he got a "severe pummeling" by Pom Pom. He even wrote Pom Pom's parents a letter of condolence.
  • Late Nite JengaJam Interview - 4 Oct 2007The Brothers Chaps talk about what would happen if they killed off Pom Pom.
  • Doomy Tales of the Macabre — Pom Pom gets blown up by The Poopsmith, eventually exploding.
  • I Killed Pom Pom — The entire toon revolves around Homestar mistaking a deflated inflatable pumpkin for a popped Pom Pom, and trying to cover up his apparent murder of him. At the end, he actually pops Pom Pom. A preview for "next season" reveals that he gets put back together, though.
