Not surprisingly, Captain America rises from the dead
NEW YORK (AP) — Captain America is rising from the grave.
The Marvel Comics superhero returns for the five-part series Captain America Reborn, beginning July 1.
But Marvel won't disclose how he rises from the dead. Executive Editor Tom Brevoort teases that the character has been "on a Vonnegut-esque metaphysical journey," including some soul-searching about his place in the world.
Brevoort says that "while he seems to be dead, his mind and his spirit" are active elsewhere.
Captain America, the alter ego of Steve Rogers, was apparently shot and killed two years ago on the steps of a courthouse in lower Manhattan.
Rogers' sidekick Bucky Barnes took his place, continuing the series. Brevoort says Barnes will embark on a quest to revive Rogers.

With most comic book deaths, it's just a matter of when they'll come back, not if.
Not all of them, however. And that aspect of things is lampooned in my current fave c-book The Boys, in which the medical compound that gives people super powers can restart the body after death, but not the mind. Heroes who come back are basically drooling shells who don't know better than to eat their own poop.
