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

Appearances

Bubs

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.

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.

Cheat Commandos

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.

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.

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.

  • 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.

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 2007 — The 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.
