==Television Deaths==
* Samurai Jack: XCVI (2017; animated) [The Dominator]: Pushed into an electrical generator by Ashi (Tara Strong), and killed either by electrocution (owing to his metal armour) or the resulting explosion.
* Primal: Rage of the Ape-Men (2019; animated) [Spear/Big Gorilla]: Providing vocalisations for two characters, the “Big Gorilla” is beaten savagely to death by Krog (Jon Olson) with his fists. “Spear”, being a main character, survives the episode.
*Primal: Plague of Madness (2020; animated) [Spear]: In a nightmare, he has a massive chunk of his abdomen bitten off by the Infected Argentinosaurus (uncredited vocalisations), witnessing the flesh melting off his face and hands from the effects of the madness plague. He survives the episode in reality.
* Primal: Coven of the Damned (2020; animated) [Spear/Caveman]: Providing vocalisations for two characters, the “Caveman” has his life essence absorbed by the Head Witch (uncredited screeches), becoming emaciated to the point that his head falls off his body and onto the ground. “Spear”, being a main character, survives the episode (narrowly avoiding having his essence similarly stolen thanks to the intervention of the rogue witch, Lula (Amanda Troop)).
*Primal: Dawn of Man (2022; animated) [Spear/Viking]: Providing vocalisations (and one spoken word) for two characters, the “Viking” is bitten in half by Fang (vocal effects by Frank Welker) after pulling a sword on “Spear”, who’d been interrogating the former about the whereabouts of Mira (Laëtitia Eïdo). “Spear” survives the episode.
*Primal: The Red Mist (2022; animated) [Spear/Viking C]: Providing battle cries for a caveman and one of the Norse warriors massacred by the former, “Viking C” is hacked to death with a sword by “Spear” after trying to swing his own sword at him and getting a chunk bitten out of his wrist for his trouble. We see him screaming in pain as blood from his wrist spurts into his eyes, then focus on “Spear” bringing the sword down repeatedly as more blood spurts up from the bottom of the screen; (see Darin De Paul for “Vikings A”, “B” and “D”). “Spear” survives the episode.
*Primal: The Colossaeus, Part II (2022; animated) [Spear/Soldier 1/Soldier 2]: Providing battle cries for three characters, “Soldiers 1” and “2” are killed fighting “Spear” and his T-Rex companion, Fang (vocal effects by Frank Welker)- possibly in the extended conquest sequence when they’re obliged to fight as battle slaves for Queen Ima (Amina Koroma) alongside Kamau (Imari Williams). (also see Imari Williams for “Soldiers 3” and “4”) “Spear” survives the episode.
*Primal: Echoes of Eternity (2022; animated) [Spear/Spear’s Dad]: Providing battle cries for two characters (and one spoken word), “Spear’s Dad” is mauled to death- including having an arm ripped off- by sabertooth tigers in a flashback scene. His death is afterwards avenged by his young son (Noah Kaye Bentley). In the present, “Spear” is mortally burned in the process of saving the life of his T-Rex companion, Fang (vocal effects by Frank Welker), managing to knock the demonically empowered Chieftain (Fred Tatasciore) down a cliff and being carried with him while ablaze. Though his lover, Mira (Laëtitia Eïdo), manages to beat out the flames, the village healer is unable to save his life, though he seems to live long enough to have sex with Mira, presumably dying off-screen sometime thereafter. The episode ends on a flash forward a few years later, with Mira having born him a daughter (Lilah Tartakovsky), who now rides one of Fang’s now grown-up hatchlings (uncredited)- Fang herself being still alive, her injuries from the Chieftain having been minor.
*Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War: The White Haze (2023; anime) [Ichibē Hyōsube/Kensei Muguruma/BG9]: BG9 is decapitated by Haschwalth (Robbie Daymond) after being defeated by Sui-Feng (Karen Strassman); Ichibē and Kensei survive the episode.
*Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War: I Am the Edge (2023; anime) [Kensei Muguruma]: Killed (off-screen), alongside Rose (Kirk Thornton), by Gremmy (A.J. Beckles); he is brought back to life as a zombie by Giselle Gewelle (Casey Mongillo) in the episode Marching out the Zombies 2.
*Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War: A (2024; anime) [Ichibē Hyōsube]: Torso obliterated by Yhwach (Richard Epcar); he comes back to life after Ichigo (Johnny Yong Bosch) speaks his name.
