Baron Mordo shot and killed in Los Angeles
This just in. Karl Mordo, evil sorceror who has long been a public menace to our dimension, was killed this afternoon by a single gunshot wound to the head. Apparently this mundane weapon took him by surprise.

In custody, the unnamed perpretator is quoted as saying, "The fool was throwing gang signs. He dissed my hood, I had to pop a cap on his ass."

Mordo's longtime arch-enemy Dr Stephen Strange of New York City reportedly could not stop laughing long enough to make a comment. In lieu of flowers, the Mordo family asks that goats be sacrificed to the Dread Dormammu.

	I wouldn't be surprised if in an attempt to make things "modern" and "contemporary" something along those lines becomes canon. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It was meant as a gag. I read the quote on a true crime message board and thought, "Hey Dr Strange is always making weird gestures that could be misinterpreted." But you're right... I can absolutely see this in a story meant to be shocking and relevant, etc as Strange gets plugged on the street. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not to mention with Brother Voodoo becoming the new Sorocer Supreme and how kill happy comics have been lately this becomes all too possible...Can I take back my previous comment and make it all a joke again? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So a black guy becoming SS means he's gonna "pop a cap" in someone's ass? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That sounds a lot worse than it was meant to. I merely meant that Dr. Strange is no longer that important since he isn't Sorcerer Supreme anymore therefore ripe for a shock death. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	"So a black guy becoming SS means he's gonna "pop a cap" in someone's ass?" No. The idea was that some street thug was going to do this to Dr Strange, not that Brother Voodoo was going to do it or say that. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	The UK PM had two "T's" in his name. And his butt wasn't half as nice as Terra's. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Naturally. It's impossible for Terra to not be adorable (at least as long as she's in the hands of the Grey/Palmiotti/Conner trinity). (Reply to this) (Parent)
