The Dark Knight Rises: 10 Mysteries The Film Must Answer

5. Is Harvey Dent Really Dead?

It didn€™t look good for Harvey Dent at the end of The Dark Knight and by all accounts, based on all the press stills of his funeral and the fact that Batman stands accused of his murder it€™s quite probable that Nolan has simply finished with him. But death has been a funny thing in comic books ever since Superman died and was resurrected Jesus style in the Death and Return of Superman story arcs of the nineties. Characters die, they come back to life, its anarchy, no big deal. So when it looks like Harvey Dent - one of Batman€™s all-time greatest nemeses - is dead and gone and the film guy in me goes: €œNolan€™s probably killed him off€, the comic book guy interrupts with: €œor has he?!€ What do you think? Answers on a postcard please.
