    10 comic book characters who've actually stayed dead SO FAR.

    Dove refusing to rise to the Black Ring's command is Absolutely my favorite part of the Black Lantern crisis. It was just a shot of his gravestone and "Rise-Don Hall is At Peace" but it wrung a lot of emotion out of me

      That is really good. Excellent choice. I get you about that "single panel and emotion" part. In the Marvel Boy miniseries, the villain Oubliette is lying in some clover in the crashed Kree ship's botanical lab. She says of a skull lying nearby (all but one Kree died in the disaster), "Your girlfriend looks pretty in this light." When I first read it, that was gut-wrenchingly emotional for me.

    Pantha and Wildebeest! They're forgotten in the shuffle of Infinite Crisis, but I was reading Titans before that event, and really got to love their weird, semi parental bond

      I saw Pantha in one of the panels. She was in the background.

    so technically when the devil nezha created a copy of alfred to spy on bruce in Batman V Robin from 2022, he had to ue a part of Alfred's souls so when the copy dies and the demon is repelled, alfred is technically left there as his og self that dies in bruce's arms again. So while he was back for one book, it was as a dying moment, and actually not diminishing his death in the city of bane storyline

      I got to agree on that one, I know who you mean. Also, right before that, Superboy Prime kills a basic child (who has a big hulking form) Wildebeest, but he tends to be forgotten about

    Also I'd say Gwen Stacy should be #1. Ik Spider-Gwen exists but thats still a variant of gwen, not the 616 Gwen. idgaf about Mar-Vel and I dont think anyone else does either

    • @LupineShadowOmega
      @LupineShadowOmega Před rokem +8

      Plenty of people do. Mar-Vel's death was a big deal because his book was pretty popular at one point and that's ignoring the fact that he didn't die some crazy hero death or at the hands of a supervillain, he just died of Cancer. It was super dark at the time, but also mundane which was why it hit as a very Marvel Comics sort of death.
