Page 2

These pages list all the people killed in The New Avengers; as well as the people doing the killing, and their modi operandi.

Speaking trivially, it's hard to pick the bloodiest episode. Gladiators was banned for violence, although it only has 4 on-screen deaths, and Target!, Gnaws and K Is For Kill - Part 1: The Tiger Awakes all clock up nine (although the latter has combat between Russian and French forces, so the death toll is much higher - as high as 260, perhaps; however The Midas Touch may be the worst with three individual deaths, and the murders of a whole house full of innocent party guests.

The guide is in two parts, use the links below to navigate them (or use those at the bottom of the pages).
