Back when “Dead is dead” was decreed, the deceased Marvel characters actually filled a decent-sized Handbook. But now, out of the 43 characters in the Book of the Dead 2004, the following have reappeared in some of Marvel’s books, alive and kicking again:
Bucky- He survived after all and is now Captain
Graydon Creed- He was reanimated by Bastion using the Magus.
Cypher- Doug Ramsey is alive for the Necrosha event.
Destiny- Like Cypher, she’s among Selene’s resurrected, enslaved mutants.
Gilgamesh- I’ve yet to read last year’s Eternals series, where the Forgotten One returned.
Hawkeye- Clint Barton was killed twice and revived by Wanda Maximoff, and is now Ronin.
Magik- She’s back with the New Mutants.
Mockingbird- She didn’t die, after all, just replaced by a Skrull.
Odin- Thor’s father is shown fighting Surtur in the afterlife, in the early issues of the current Thor title.
Harry Osborn- Harry returned during the much-criticized “One More Day” story.
Jean Grey- It’s been hinted at that she has reincarnated as mutant messiah Hope Summers, who’ll be returning as a grown woman soon.
Pyro- The character is among the recently revived mutants.
Thor- After Ragnarok and some time off, Thor is back.
Thunderbird- He’s alive again and is Selene’s lackey.
X-Man- Nate Grey just showed up in the new Dark X-Men series.
