X-Men come back more than Jesus

Post by Halfshell »

Okay, I've been wondering... how many X-Men [and related stuff] deaths have actually stuck?

Be it team members, members of related teams, adversaries, friends of the family... who has actually died and is still dead?

Ignoring Ultimate X-Men and other alternate realities.

Off the top of my head... uhm... Maddy Pryor? Magick? Have they brought her back yet?

Oh, and blatantly this is a spoiler-heavy topic, so no need for tags.

A version of Magik is back in New X-Men right now.

Also, I'm surprised they've kept Jean dead for almost 4 years now... would have figured she'd be back after 2 at the most.

Didn't the first Thunderbird stay dead?

Up to about five years ago, when I dropped the books... did Cypher ever come back? Er... Darkstar? Changeling?

Not exactly. Douglock was a member of the alien Phalanx who was created with the appearance and a few of the memories of Doug Ramsey. He never claimed to be Doug, despite Wolfsbane's wishing otherwise.

Doug Ramsey is still very much dead. Thankfully.

Jean Grey's entire family is dead. Except her dad, or mom, whichever. I forget. Oh and Rachel, who is "Rachel Grey" now, for some reason. Whatever...

What about that lame bird/man thing from New Mutants wasn't he killed?

No, just written out, I think.

Deaths that stuck (including already mentioned above):

Jean (actually, it's debatable)
Blink
Thunderbird
Banshee
Corsair
D'Ken
Petra
Sway
Synch
Skin
Magik (there's another version of her in New X-Men now, but it's not that Illyana that was killed by Legacy Virus, AFAIK)
Cypher
Changeling
Meggan (so far, at least)
Sunder
Stonewall
Super Sabre
Sharon Friedlander
Bedlam (I think)
Cable (OK, his return was already announced, so I guess he shouldn't count)
Revanche (unless it's her in Avengers: The Initiative, which I doubt)
Mariko Yashida
Sabretooth (like he won't be back ;) )
Stryfe
Mastermind
Pyro
Vargas
Risque
Destiny
Maggott
Copycat
Unus
X-Man
Feral
Squidboy
Davan Shakari
Moira McTaggart
Alpha Flight (debatable as well)
two of Stephord Cuckoos
and plethora of students which were offed by Kyle and Yost in New X-Men

So, I am bored. :o
-Okay, the bomb's dropped. Life goes on. No amount of sulking or worrying changes that. We've got our own lives to live. In that regard, in five minutes time, I am using the autopilot on the Midnight Runner and taking it down the pub. If I go on my own, I go on my own.
-Well. Wait up, you horrible English git. While I'm around, you don't have to go anywhere on your own.
And, one by one, the others follow.
And, one by one, they begin to smile.
