First and foremost, the original Captain Marvel: Seriously, this guy died in 1982 and hasn't been brought back yet!

Bringing back Uncle Ben and the Waynes would pretty much negate the existence of Batman and Spider-Man IMO. Also don't forget to add Gwen-Stacy in this list.

Technically, Cable has already died & come back.  He was believed dead at the end of X-Cutioner's Song.   
 
And I thought Captain Marvel was one of the Dead Avengers...  Sorry :) 
  
But Tag, Icarus & a lot of the Xavier Institute students have stayed dead ;)

The original Crimson Avenger, Lee Walter Travis has been dead since 1981.  @joshmightbe: Uncle Ben, Jor-El, and The Waynes don't count.

You can also add Jonathan Kent, Vibe, Jor-El and Lara.

I don't think returning as Dead Avengers, Black Lanterns or the like is a full on rebirth. :P

Also Orion wasn't resurrected in the end of Final Crisis like the other New Gods as Darkseid wasn't too.

Talbot returned briefly during Chaos War
D'Ken was also revived by Vulcan not too long ago, though he did kill him again later.

I believe Marvel is back. The others haven't been dead long, so that's not really fair. They will be back - especially Cable and Nightcrawler. X-Men have a high record of returning from the dead.

Orion basically reincarnated as Batman. If you read return of Bruce Wayne his symbol's on top of Batman's decaying cape and cowl.

Cable has time on his side. Cable from now could still be dead, but younger Cable could always come back.

Gah. I hate it when that happens. Maybe he'll come back when they reverse the virus - which is what killed him.

Wasn't that just a bunch of cave paintings Bruce made?

I know Bruce made cave paintings that concerned Final Crisis, but now I have to go look back.

Ares been back as well, well, he was still 'dead' but it hasn't stopped him appearing in new stories in Secret Warriors and Chaos War. Under that specification you could just pretend all characters are dead and haven't come back. I mean if you want to lol Cap marvel appeared a few time in random old stories too, as an essence or something else, before Dead Avengers too. I think Tom Brevoort said that even the Ultimate point character for the rule for staying dead Uncle Ben could be revived given the right pitch and story even if just temporarily.
