What one resurrected DC Character would you choose to have stayed dead?

What one resurrected DC Character would you choose to have stayed dead? And, since this is comics, after which death in some cases? Also, why?

TIA.

Jor-El

I admit I didn't read any of those stories with a resurrected Jor-El but I can't see any reason to resurrect that character.

[astro@work]

Pa Kent. Love me some Jonathan, but that poor man has died more times than anybody.
His constant returns, just to be killed again, take the sting out of any more deaths we'll see.
Let that poor man rest in peace!

JASON TODD

He was a proto Tim Drake pre-COIE. Post-COIE, he was an insufferable version of Dick Grayson who arguably had a greater purpose dead than alive. Alive again, he's mostly just insufferable with a role that most any other vigilante type could fulfill.

I am shocked by the fact this is real.

[Gaius]

Max Lord.

Not because his death was a good story (it wasn't), I'm just sick of seeing this loser grafted on to WW like a summer tic.

Barry and Hal never should have came back. Their legacies surpassed them in every way.

[JBatmanFan05]

Jason Todd. His murderous unjailed ways don't fit with Batman and his principles, and his death (like Gwen Stacy's) should always be a lesson about consequences, fatal consequences when it comes to being a superhero/crime fighter.

(Jor-El's resurrection I don't recognize or acknowledge, so I won't bother listing it)

I don't mind Jason Todd being alive but he should have stayed a villain. Nowadays he is basically just Nightwing but edgier (I think he doesn't even kill anymore!?).

Barry and Hal never should have came back. Their legacies surpassed them in every way.

Eh, I'd say Hal's resurrection was understandable due to how terrible Parallax was and it led to an interesting new direction for the GL franchise under Geoff Johns.

However, there was truly no reason to bring back Barry Allen.

Barry Allen without doubt.

I agree. Wally West was Barry's heir apparent and ultimately did his legacy proud. Hal's vilification was never going over, and Kyle Rayner - while enjoyable to some - was simply no substitute for Hal, Guy, John, and the other Lanterns.

I agree.

Barry Allen. The man died an honorable death that actually meant something. Now a days heroes/villains die just to die for a sales push and get resurrected for the same reason

[BlackClaw]

Barry Allen. And it’s not even close.

Barry Allen. The man died an honorable death that actually meant something.

I started to say Barry for the same reason you did.

However, I always wanted Kara Zor-El's Supergirl to return so I felt like a hypocrite.
