I've heard an awful lot of people complaining and/or baffled that Harry could have died and come back.
I suppose perhaps the reason I'm not surprised is that my other fandom (Buffy) has seen the death of its main character TWICE? So Harry biting the dust then coming back really didn't shock me all too much. In fact, I should have thought of it earlier. Seeing as it is totally possible.
I must say, Buffy has the one-up on him as far as being dead but still pretty. *snerk*
