The same folks who claim that the return of Hal Jordan and Barry Allen to their traditional roles as Green Lantern and Flash during the past 10-13 years is "pandering to Silver Age nostalgia."
See? We Pre-COIE era fans can play that card too! Since it's such a non-argument, I move that we retire it.
Buried Alien (The Fastest Post Alive!)
Buried Alien - THE FASTEST POST ALIVE!
First CBR Appearance (Historical): November, 1996
First CBR Appearance (Modern): April, 2014
Character death in a shocking and brutal manner is how the hack writer/editorial decides to 'raise the stakes' and obtain the highest level of shock value.
The thing is, these hacks are so focused on shocking readers and being 'mature and dark' that they have forgotten how to write a good and coherent story.

"power does not corrupt, power always reveals."
that is largely true and it is true in all media. Howard Chaykin was 100% spot on.

And how many of them are back to life?
All of them except wally and Connor isn't used
I write and Publish a comic. I also write and Publish Horror Stories around a central character. Youtube Narrators read my stories and they have lots of fans on Reddit, and other sites.
The two common threads from many fans and narrators are, What is Abigail Mitchell, and I've noticed only exceedingly dumb, or plain unlucky people die in your stories, yet they retain the horror element, and stakes."
I pride myself on writing believable characters who try to do everything right and still lose, and some who do everything right and win. Not based on how much I love the character.
I tend to treat my audience as smart people. Even when my main character wins, it's not by Deus Ex Machina. It's the natural progression of the story.
It gets a reaction, which in turn creates interest.
Not the ones I know. Regardless, I understand the point, but Superman didn't really die, and it was never the plan to have him actually die. Not like Barry died, or Jason Todd died, or even Gwen Stacy.
They were supposed to die and stay dead. The death of Coast City was more of a shocker.
But, with Jason Todd, the whole thing was about killing him, really for now reason. They took a poll and this is what readers came up with.
