Wormworldsaga.com - An Online Graphic Novel by Daniel Lieske - Choose your language - StumbleUpon. In this semi-drunk movie about Supermans death, Elijah Wood is Cyborg Superman - StumbleUpon. I don't think that the The Death of Superman started the "death is meaningless" in comics.
Like people said, Jean Grey had happened years before, and the trend of reviving long-dead Silver and Golden Age characters such as Barry Allen (died in 1985, resurrected in 2008), Hal Jordan (died in 1996, resurrected in 2006), Bucky (died in 1968, ressurected in 2005) and Jason Todd (Died in 1988, resurrected in 2005) is a 21st-century trend. What Death of Superman started, however, is the replacement of iconic heroes with more hip or edgy version: Thor got replaced by Thunderstrike, Captain America with U.S. - StumbleUpon.
