8 Superhero Show Endings That Are Genuine Masterpieces
Collider has published a feature listing eight superhero television series finales it considers standout examples of how to end a show well, spanning both live-action Marvel productions and animated DC series. The piece argues that definitive endings are rare in superhero media, since studios often revive characters or franchises later, making the finales singled out here notable for feeling genuinely conclusive at the time.
The list opens with Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (2013–2020), whose two-part finale "The End Is at Hand/What We're Fighting For" saw the team defeat the Chronicoms and go their separate ways, and Loki (2021–2023), whose Season 2 finale "Glorious Purpose" had the title character reshape time to preserve the multiverse. The article notes the piece contains spoilers and promises further entries covering other Marvel and DC Animated Universe shows, though only these two are detailed in the excerpt provided.
