Another Superhero gets "killed"

SPOILER WARNING: Don't click on the link unless you want to know:



To generate some general discussion, this isn't the first time a superhero has been "killed". Note that I put that word in quotes, because in comics, the death of a character never seems to be permanent, and if the character was popular enough, the publishers will figure out some way to bring them back to life (Superman probably being the best example of this).

Spoiler:
Heck, although this isn't entirely related, I remember how pissed off fans were when Optimus Prime died in the 1985 Transformers movie, so much so that they had to bring him back to life later on. And as a result of the outrage, they didn't kill off Duke in the GI Joe movie, and rather he just goes into a coma.


Do you think by "killing" off a character, the character's image is being hurt or helped? What about if they later get brought back to life? And don't say it won't happen, comic book characters never really disappear (the sole exceptions being because they're not a popular character, and/or their comic isn't selling well).

Of course, I'm not a hardcore comics reader. I know enough about most superheroes and their backstory, but if I'm wrong here, do you know of any major characters that were really killed off and never brought back?

Use spoiler tags if you do have an answer, so that you don't ruin it for other people. type spoiler in between brackets [ and ] (they're above the Enter key and slightly to the left), and when you're done, type /spoiler in brackets behind the last word.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
