and how many times

Ask Jeannie.

Are you including characters who have returned?

How many X-Men are there? That many.

+Angel and Cyclops.

Emma Frost? when she got shattered?

Did Storm and Jubilee die to by becoming vampires?

Joseph? that would make all three Magnetos..

I always forget Magneto once died, lol.

Also, you can add Changeling and Vanisher (Xforce) to the list.

I guess a better question is: How many XMen have NOT died?

These are the X-Men that I remembered had died:

Colossus: died when he sacrificed his life to the legacy virus

Magik: died when she was affected by the Legacy Virus

Professor Xavier: yeah, we just saw him die and he had died in the past also

Jean Grey: Yeah, she's the one who died the most

Thunderbird: Died when he was first introduced

There's way more, but that's all I remember.

Pretty much all of them have died, and most several times.

Plus others that has presumed died , but came back to life or were saved from death.

Havok -presumed died in X-Factor in a plan crash

Stacy X - Lost her powers and presumed died in the New warriors in a car explosion, but sunddly cameback repowered

Darwin - presumed died but only merged with Vulcan

Caliban - Died during Messiah Complex

Boom Boom - Was killed by the Lepoer Queen with a single shot in the head, but was saved by X23 who went back on time.

This.

seriously, didn't Archangel just die like a few months ago?

They should have just... let Warren die. I just saw the panel when current Warren meets young Warren. *gag* The real question is: who stayed dead? Isn't it just thunderbird and Xavier's 'deadly genesis' arc team?

Okay, so maybe I missed a few... but really. Even Cypher was brought back. I mean... come on, already.

@DarkxSeraph: that is actually a way easier question.

I think, as of right now (and not counting the O5 from the past)

Thunderbird

Nightcrawller

the Banshee

Revanche

Maggot

Xorn

Xavier

and, somehow, Jean Grey (and the Phoenix) are all still dead.

and, yeah, I wouldn't have cared if they left Archangel dead either.

Didn't Scott see Jean during the Phoenix Five dabacle? Considering her and the White Room and all, I wouldn't -technically- place her as dead.

@DarkxSeraph: mm. I would.

but then, I count Jubilee as dead because she's a vampire, so who can say?

how many times has Xavier died? He was considered dead after Messiah Complex, and he dead now. Were there any other times?

Was Changeling actually a part of X-Men? You can add him to this list.

@Spawn92: good call.

and I also forgot the two Deadly Genesis members who actually stayed dead, seriously, even their names.

Vulcan *(but he died later), Sway, and Petra.

Pretty much all of them have died, and most several times.

Has Rogue ever died?

Uncanny #227 and 247

How many dead X-Men should be a drinking game....

Bump, how many have died now?
