Since the image shows a klansman setting himself on fire, I think it would be a better fit for Death by Racism.

Since there have already been three threads on this, I'll offer the Evil Queen from Snow White as a replacement.

That was near the end of Inglorious Basterds when Hitler gets brutally gunned down by Eli Roth's character

The Joker's death from Return of the Joker seems like a decent candidate. (And yes, I realize it's fairly similar to the picture on Laughably Evil. And that it would probably work better to pull a scene that makes it more obvious that the Joker was shot by a brainwashed Robin.)

^ I think the latter is a Super-Trope. An ironic death need not be karmic.

[up][up]Apparently this trope is a subtrope to Death by Irony.

I could go with the first image of the evil queen's death

That's a little weak for a distinction. Regardless, OP fits "self-disposing" more than "karmic" in my view.

I do think there's an overlap/duplication problem there, but that's a topic for TRS.

I don't think so.

OP's suggestion is dangerously close to Disney Villain Death.

Getting eaten by the same minions you previously betrayed?

I think it also needs to show how Scar is evil to his mooks. Maybe something like this?

It's a bit dark, but I don't think that can be helped and what's there is clear enough for me. "Abuse your minions at your own risk." as the caption, perhaps?
