[Superheroes]Legally, are superheroes allowed to kill super villains in battle?

That depends on the situation. Vigilantees tracking down supervillains and then killing them in "self defense" would be illegal because they were the ones who created the danger in the first place. For that matter, they're also not allowed to beat up the supervillains, or even enter their hideout. But if the supervillain attacks a group of people then superheroes would be allowed to kill them to defend those people. Also, legally sanctioned superheroes who have a warrant would be able to kill the supervillains in self defense, just like any other peace officers.
