I like pseudo-death stories if they really count and don't read as cop outs. And sometimes, I'm just willing to shrug and read past them -- I mean, Colossus being alive in Astonishing Xmen doesn't make any actual sense, but it's a good story so I forgive. Same with Spike in season 5 of Angel.
On the other hand, I have trouble with post-"Not Fade Away" Angel fic that tries to explain away that ending, if only because it manages to feel so final and open-ended at once.
