One of the most memorable moments of Skurge the Executioner was his death. He valiantly battles the entire demon army of Hel to allow his comrades to escape. He positions himself over the bridge called Gjallerbru and lets no one pass. Eventually he is swarmed and killed. His last stand though is so legendary that heroes and villains alike comment on it in the Marvel universe. He even earned the grudging respect of Hela whose minions he was slaying.
Hela Quote on Skurge:
"He stood alone at Gjallerbru. And that answer is enough."
Skurge had long been a henchmen of the Enchantress and felt his name had been tarnished by years of misdeeds. In Hel he sought a warrior's redemption the only way a true warrior knows how. The scene is a similar to a few battles that have happened in history where a bridge is held by a berserker or a great warrior and not letting anyone pass. A couple of historical battles that the scene could based off of are the Spartans at Thermopylae (Depicted in the 300) and of a large dane axe weilding bersker holding the bridge in the battle of Stamford Bridge..
Both Skurge and Hela are in the film of Thor Ragnarok and this scene may be depicted in the film in one way or another.
