After fighting the Legends, his body was destroyed, but due to his soul token still being in Hell not killed. To keep his body from reforming, the Legends put his guts in several jars on the Waverider, and in the stomach of John Constantine. Later, enraged by his failure, Astra dragged Rasputin into Hell.

Behind the scenes

  • Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin (22 January [O.S. 9 January] 1869 – 30 December [O.S. 17 December] 1916) was a Russian mystic and self-proclaimed holy man who befriended the family of Tsar Nicholas II, the last monarch of Russia, and gained considerable influence in late imperial Russia. Historians often suggest that Rasputin's terrible reputation helped discredit the tsarist government, and thus helped precipitate the overthrow of the Romanov dynasty, which happened a few weeks after he was assassinated. Accounts of his life and influence were often based on hearsay and rumor.
