Top Ten Comics Resurrections

Everyone knows that death is more or less a revolving door in comics, but that’s not the way it is in real life–unless, of course, you’re one of the millions of Americans celebrating Easter this weekend.

Whenever a character dies these days, the question becomes when and how they’ll come back–but every so often it’s done with so much style that you can hardly blame them.
