| Mar 20, 2023 at 6:41 | comment | added | Clockwork | @evilsoup Asker deleted their own account after self-answering, but I think any kind of death in any occurrence would have counted, apparently. | |
| Mar 19, 2023 at 23:10 | comment | added | Yasskier | Does the Vertigo count as part of DC? Most of Fables are immortal, even if they can temporary "die. There are those that are either never "died" at all (like Snow White) or are so powerful, that come back immediately to life (Jack of the Beanstalk) | |
| Mar 19, 2023 at 23:05 | comment | added | Yasskier | @Clockwork Constantine kills Doctor Fate (as the presence inside the helmet). Fate is then replaced by another being. | |
| Mar 19, 2023 at 16:47 | comment | added | evilsoup | Does "in any continuity" include what-if / one-off kind of stories? For example, does Captain Marvel's death in Frank Miller's Dark Knight Strikes Again (not ever intended to be part of the "main" continuity, though in continuity with Miller's little bubble of Batman comics) count? Would various character deaths in Alan Moore's (explicitly non-canon "imaginary story") Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow count? | |

| Mar 17, 2023 at 15:57 | comment | added | Laurel | Considering the fact that the timeline stretches to "the end of time", only immortal beings are even possibilities. | |

Edit for clarification from comments

| Mar 17, 2023 at 15:51 | comment | added | LogicDictates | @Braden Phirsichbaum - I doubt the "end of time" was literally the last nanosecond of reality, because Superman and Waverider were there long enough to talk a little bit, and then leave. Also, when the main DC universe was rebooted in the Zero Hour storyline, the events of Hunter/Prey happened again, but this time, some other time-travellers arrived just in time to prevent Doomsday from being crushed by entropy and bring him back to present day Earth. | |
| Mar 17, 2023 at 15:38 | comment | added | LogicDictates | In Superman/Doomsday: Hunter/Prey, Superman time-travelled to a point in the "far distant future" described as "the end of time." At that point, the universe was being crushed by entropy, and even beings like Superman and Doomsday couldn't survive there for long. Presumably, pretty much every mortal character ever shown in a DC story was dead in that time period. | |

| Mar 17, 2023 at 15:32 | comment | added | shanu | Shazam does come to mind, dont remember him dying ever! | |
| Mar 17, 2023 at 15:28 | comment | added | LogicDictates | @Braden Phirsichbaum - Does dying of old age count? If so, I believe every human character on present day Earth was dead by the 30th century, in which the Legion of Super-Heroes formed. | |
| Mar 17, 2023 at 15:28 | comment | added | shanu | so are you asking they have never died ever in any continuity or never in one single continuity? because the former will be very hard to find | |
