One does not simply chop off Wolverine's head.

Predator ain't Dr. Doom.

And yet, Wolverine is still around and probably more popular than ever.

Dr. Doom would stomp entire Predator clan. Your point?

That's exactly why I hate comic books. No one ever dies.

There's absolutely no threat if you can just resurrect everyone all the time.

Well, the minor characters do.

I'm sure. But it just seems to me like none of the major players ever really die. I'll admit I don't really know all that much about comic books, but the impression I get is that a whole bunch of these superheroes are killed only to be brought back later. If they don't stay dead, where's the threat? Even if they get killed, you know they'll be back. It totally undermines it for me.

Take the latest X-Men films. I honestly thought killing off Xavier was a seriously ballsy move in the third film, and it impressed the hell out of me. But now he's back. And they didn't even explain it.

The answer is: You have to take every comic book run as a self-contained story. When a character dies, it usually stays dead, until another writer takes on the story. But for the writer who wrote the characters's death, it can be very meaningful inside the storyline created by that writer.
