Warning: This article discusses spoilers for a lot of DC storiesBenjamin Franklin once said, “In this world, nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” But in comics, not death is anything but certain. Sure, a character may die, but there’s no shortage of ways for them to return from the grave. A quick bit of magic. Some time travel shenanigans. Multiverse shenanigans. A company-wide reboot. Aside from Uncle Ben and, it seems, Alfred — who is not only merely dead, he’s really most sincerely dead — just about every comics character who has died has come back in some way. Like Superman said at Martian Manhunter’s funeral during Final Crisis, “We’ll all miss him. And pray for a resurrection.”
