That Man-Ape dude is pretty chill for someone's who's face is in a face that's ALWAYS SCREAMING.

Is it still fridging when it's a villaness that gets randomly cut down?

I don't get ape-guy. His body is furry, but why does he have a head within another head? Is that something cosmetic, like a hat that he just puts on in the morning? Or does he actually have two heads?

I don't get it.

Okay, at the risk of sounding like a grump... I really get annoyed when writers treat the fact that a character is minor as license to write them however they please, without regards to their previous personalities or backstories. The Man-Ape is a native Wakandan and doesn't use phrases like "I dunno," and the Grim Reaper, whose motives for crime revolve around brother's death and revival, isn't the stone-cold sort who'd just kill someone for no good reason.

What a random slaying...I've seen a lot of villains randomly offing partners and henchfolks, but that one stands out. I'm not sure why - it's a pretty typical example of the trope - Pissy Villain's pissy, HenchPartner tells him to chill, he offs them in a rage - but something about this one just feels MORE random.

Maybe it's Man-Ape's annoyance about the mess, I dunno...

It's a pretty big burn when the completely amoral guys who consider killing one of their own the rough equivalent of stomping a cockroach are using you as a bad example.

Is anyone else reminded of Catman making omelets in Secret Six?
