I recently had a conversation about this with a friend and I think you're missing a crucial point about the nature of a comicbook universe. Killing villains is just as futile. So you killed a supervillain, well guess what: a) the body cannot be found b) if it can, it's a robot c) or a clone d) or just somebody else e) even if it is the villains body, his mind had been transferred to another f) if not, he will just rise from the dead or perhaps be brought back from the past g) if not, his son/clone/alternate universe copy will take up his mantle e) unless it was all an illusion/alternate reality

Killing is not even a permanent solution. So why defile your conscience?
