Daredevil's enemy killed his former girlfriend Elektra.
The problem in comic books is that unless your name is Ben Parker or Thomas and Martha Wayne, no one ever stays dead. Killing a character in a comic has just become a gimmick.
There are probably more, but that's all I got outta my brain. You can do your own Googling.
It goes back to our evolutionary roots. The males in the audience, identifying with the superhero, WANT to rescue the girl. Hoping that in the process that (off-screen) he will get lucky. Many females in the audience, subconsciously WANT the big buff superhero (and bad-boy) to rescue them. Even in today's woke and feminist culture, the primitive instincts still come out. In the end, the film maker just wants to make a buck.

That's true. And it would also be quite a downer watching everyone die at the end.
Oh I thought Mary Jane was Spider Man's main squeeze.
*TRUE STORY:
Years ago, I was on a family trip in Arizona. We did one of those Pink Jeep Tours (over the red rocks). The
driver was a cool guy telling us about some of his passengers. He said he drove two young women wearing
baseball hats, pony tails, sunglasses. He asked them what did they do, where were they from. One girl
said, "I was in the Spider Man movie." The guy said, "Oh, as an extra?" Her friend piped up, "She was one
of the main stars!" It was Kirsten Dunst. The driver said, "Oh sorry, I didn't see that movie." She said,
"Oh that's okay." He said she acted very down to earth and didn't look like a movie star, just a regular girl.
Oh I thought Mary Jane was Spider Man's main squeeze.
Gwen Stacey in the comics was Spiderman's first main squeeze, A few years later, Mary Jane came along. Gwen Stacey's death was a shock at the time but made for great comic book sales. This was well before the "death" of Superman.
