These Are The Final Resting Places Of Fallen Superheroes
Marvel Comics’ “Civil War” crossover event pits superheroes against superheroes as some oppose the government’s Superhuman Registration Act. On one side, Tony Stark, aka Iron Man, leads many powerful players against Captain America’s band of ragtag renegades. Numerous fights play out throughout the story, but only one leaves every participant shocked at how things unfold.
Iron Man’s side is joined by Ragnarok, a cyborg clone of Thor created by Stark, Fantastic Four leader Reed Richards, and Hank Pym. Ragnarok looks just like Thor, and he has all his powers but none of his morality, which proves problematic. In the opening salvo, Bill Foster, otherwise known as Goliath, launches himself into battle only to be blasted through the chest by Ragnarok, killing him instantly.
Goliath was an Avenger, and a superhero to his core, so his death shocks both sides of the conflict. Because he dies at maximum size and can’t be shrunken back down, Goliath has to be buried in nearly 40 graves. Stark opts to pay for the burial plots, as he feels responsible (he is). Bill Foster’s final resting place is a cemetery in New Jersey, though it’s unclear precisely where in the state he’s buried.
