Explanation
In this comic, Snape is depicted knocking Trinity off a high place with a wooden sled called Rosebud.
Severus Snape is a character from J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series of books.
Trinity is a character from the Matrix trilogy of movies.
Rosebud is from the 1941 film Citizen Kane.
From the title text, Tyler Durden is a character from the novel and movie Fight Club.
All four references share the common ground that they are all involved in significant events or ideas in their respective movies that have been often spoiled by careless viewers for those who have not yet seen the movies. Here the relevant events are mashed together into one and spoiled in one go.

Trinity doesn't look dead, he looks like he's dodging the sled. He'll be back in two movies. Davidy22 (talk) 03:41, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Upon the release of The Matrix Reloaded, a series of false spoilers on Slashdot incorrectly claimed that Trinity died at the end (she didn't die in that movie -- she died in the one afterward.) Example: search this post for "Trinity". In that community, "Trinity Dies" became recognized as a reference to this Slashdot trolling phenomenon. 173.245.54.66 20:22, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
