During the hunt for Hope, Bastion coordinated a missile strike on one of the X-Men’s SUVs. Wolverine and X-23 survived the blast, but Ariel was consumed in the explosion. [X-Men Legacy (1st series) #235, June 2010] At the last moment, Ariel used her power to teleport through doorways to make an escape, but she wound up trapped between dimensional spaces. She managed to reconnect with the X-Men during a spatial shift, and Rogue helped Ariel reform herself on the material plane. [X-Men Legacy (1st series) #259-260, January-February 2012]

Daken
Daken sought to reinvent himself outside the shadow of Romulus and his father. With the help of the Red Right Hand, he arranged for the demon-possessed Wolverine to seemingly kill him in public, reducing his body to ash. This allowed Daken to go underground and establish a new identity for himself. [Daken: Dark Wolverine #2, December 2010] After successfully conquering Madripoor, Daken quickly lost interest when an old crimelord pointed out how unoriginal he was, following in Wolverine's footsteps as Patch. Daken revealed himself to Wolverine at Avengers Tower before moving to Los Angeles to start over. At this point, he no longer attempted to hide his survival from the world and routinely operated in the public eye. [Daken: Dark Wolverine #9.1, July 2011]
  With his healing factor burned out and his life in shambles, Daken went on a self-destructive streak from coast to coast. His rampage ended when he seemingly blew himself up in Time Square. [Daken: Dark Wolverine #23, May 2012]

Despite his explosive finale in New York City, Daken resurfaced months later without explanation. His healing factor appeared completely restored and his addiction to Heat was a thing of the past. [Uncanny X-Force (1st series) #26, August 2012]

 

Faced with the fact that his son was irredeemable, Wolverine fought Daken to the death. He ultimately drowned Daken in a shallow pool of water on Genosha. [Uncanny X-Force (1st series) #34, January 2013]

  Exposed to radiation which neutralized his healing factor, then stabbed in the chest. [Hunt for Wolverine: Claws of a Killer #3, September 2020] Persephone used her reanimation power to bring Daken back as a zombie agent under her control. [Return of Wolverine #2, December 2020] Wolverine's healing factor apparently allowed him to return to life completely, severing Persephone's control over him. Daken has also been seen independent since then, so presumably the same applies to him. [House of X #5, November 2019]

Sub-Mariner

While defending Atlantis from the pirate Plunderer, the Sub-Mariner was caught in an explosion and his people believed him dead for many months. Namor was in exile from the throne at the time for being a warmonger and did not return to let his people know he was alive as a result. [Tales to Astonish #99, January 1968]

The Atlanteans learned Namor was alive when he rescued them from the marauding barbarian Attuma, but a cruel jest by Attuma led Namor to believe his closest friends and allies had already been murdered by the hordes, and so a reunion between Namor and Atlantis was delayed further. [Sub-Mariner (1st series) #4, August 1968]

  In conflict with the hordes of Hydra alongside Iron Man, Namor was caught on their vessel as it self-destructed. Iron Man detected no lifesigns in the water after the explosion. [Iron Man Annual #9, 1989] Namor survived the ship's destruction, but kept himself masked and hidden during the Atlantis Attacks in order to strike at his enemies unexpectedly. Although the heroes of Earth soon learned of his survival, Namor allowed Iron Man's initial story of his demise to spread the surface world, and was believed dead for many months. His survival was eventually revealed to the world at large after he publically confronted the board of RoXXon Oil and dealt with a tanker spill off the coast of New York. [Namor, the Sub-Mariner #3, June 1990]
  Seeking revenge for past betrayals, Black Panther condemned Namor to die on an empty world during one of the final Incursions. An anti-matter bomb was set to detonate, destroying the world with Namor and the Cabal still on it. They were contained beneath a force field preventing them from escaping back to Earth-616. [Avengers (5th series) #40, March 2015] Miraculously, a second Incursion began during the first one. Namor and the Cabal were able to flee to a third world, Earth-1610, before the anti-matter bomb destroyed the one they were initially trapped on. [Avengers (5th series) #41, April 2015]
 

Out of vengeance for his role in the destruction of worlds during the Incursions, the Squadron Supreme targeted Namor and Atlantis. Hyperion removed Namor's head with a clean swipe of his atomic vision. [Squadron Supreme (4th series) #1, February 2016]

Later regretting their actions, the Squadron participated in a mystical spell that allowed them to retrieve Namor's essence from the moment of his death and reincarnate it into the present day. [Squadron Supreme (4th series) #14, February 2017]

Dark Beast

After endless self-experimentation, McCoy finally pushed his body too far. Suffering from fatal degeneration, the Dark Beast required a containment suit to maintain his vital signs.

Cyclops blasted McCoy and damaged his suit, inadvertently causing him to finally succumb to his ailment and expire. [Uncanny X-Men (3rd series) #22, August 2014]

Cypher
On Ani-Mate Island, the New Mutants were fighting with a crazed geneticist associated with the Right. The self-styled Ani-Mator was prepared to shoot Wolfsbane in the back when Doug lept in the way of the bullet. He bled out on the ground, unnoticed by his teammates until the battle was over. [New Mutants (1st series) #60, February 1988] Like many mutants, Cypher was resurrected by Eli Bard for Selene using his magically-advanced T-O virus infection. [X-Force (3rd series) #18, October 2009] Unlike most, however, Doug's powers and previous exposure to the T-O virus gave him a measure of resistance. His selffriend Warlock managed to purge Doug of the malicious code using a combination of his own Technarchy code and Illyana's Soulsword, restoring Doug to life independent of the virus. [New Mutants (3rd series) #8, February 2010]

Warlock
Captured by Cameron Hodge and the Genoshan Magistrates, Warlock's body was reduced to ashes when Hodge attempted to claim the Technarch's techno-organic powers for his own. His ashes were eventually scattered on the grave of his "selfriend," Doug Ramsey. [New Mutants (1st series) #95, November 1990] Warlock's ashes were harvested by the Friends of Humanity to create a new form of techno-organic Sentinels called the Phalanx. Warlock's mind remained hidden as a subroutine in the Phalanx Collective until they created a unit based on Doug Ramsey, with whom Warlock had shared his mind and lifeglow. Warlock's was reborn inside "Douglock," instilling the Phalanx drone with the capacity for independence and eventually becoming self-aware with his original personality once more.

Fantomex The Skinless Man had wanted revenge on Fantomex for decades after being skinned alive by him. He joined the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants and cut open Fantomex's chest, ripping his heart out of his torso. [Uncanny X-Force (1st series) #27, September 2012]

After the Brotherhood was defeated, X-Force used the cloning technology at the White Sky facility to load Fantomex's body and reconstitute him back to life. Unfortunately, the machine recognized his three brains as independent readings, creating a body for each brain: Fantomex, Cluster and Weapon XIII. [Uncanny X-Force (1st series) #35, February 2013]

  Ceased to exist as a physical being when Charles Xavier rewrote his genetic material to make a new body for X, leaving Fantomex's mind on the astral plane. [Astonishing X-Men (4th series) #7, March 2018]

After Hope let Martha Johanssen into Kenji’s mind, she used her psychic jamming abilities to break his mental control over his organo-techno mass. This caused Kenji to physically disperse, apparently leaving him dead. [Generation Hope #17, May 2012]

Kenji's cells survived and were harvested by David Harmon to create his own bio-mechanical parts. Harmon's efforts apparently stimulated Kenji's cellular structure enough that he fully regenerated, given time. [Storm (3rd series) #10, June 2015]
