About

"We're Gonna Have To Kill This Guy, Steven" is an exploitable comic panel by Twitter artist Haus of Decline in which Steven Universe encounters Adolf Hitler and Garnet tells him that Steven can't change his mind to make him less evil and must kill him. The comic panel has been used in several redraws and fan edits, usually featuring other characters.

Origin

The comic was posted to Haus of Decline's Twitter on April 16th, 2023.[1] The comic features Steven Universe trying to negotiate with Adolf Hitler, but failing to do so. Afterward, Garnet says "I think we're gonna have to kill this guy, Steven." to which Steven only replies "Damn". The comic (shown below) received over 78,000 likes and over 7,600 retweets in over three weeks.

Spread

Variations began appearing almost immediately after Haus of Decline's post. Also on April 16th, 2023, user @yoloswagstudios[2] edited the comic so that Steven shows Hitler a picture of Abigail Shapiro, causing Hitler to kill himself. The edit gained over 200 retweets and 7,100 likes in three weeks (shown below, left). However, the majority of edits were redraws featuring different characters in the scene. For example, on May 2nd, 2023, Twitter user @tarotboys[3] redrew the comic featuring characters from Final Fantasy XIV, gaining over 700 retweets and 2,000 likes in one week (shown below, right).

Wow 3 Steven U front page memes in 2023. Lemme guess, this ones next

this parody is more accurate to the show than most, because he accepts he has to kill him. Canon steven is MAD, and the abridged redemption arc happened because the show was getting canceled, so future felt like depicting the way everything fucked him in the head. It's more accurate than those crying steven memes about how someone can be a good person anyway.

I miss nuance.
