Yeah, but in interviews when writers are questioned about stuff like this they try and dodge the question or hint that they may use the character. Thist time Morrison swore that he would leave Magneto dead for many reasons.
Im sorry I cant find the actual interview, but here is a quote from X-men writer Chuck Austin:
"But look, I agree with Grant in keeping Magneto dead for creative reasons. Not because I think Magneto should stay dead forever, but because Magneto was overused constantly for many years, and that's the main reason he's staying dead. To force people to create, and stop rehashing. People with a lack of imagination kept bringing him back and destroying the specialness of his power and character. I love the new stuff Grant's created much more (Fantomex is brilliant!), and some of the other things that have appeared in other people's books because they haven't had Magneto and Sinister and the Brotherhood to fall back on every other month."

Oh and sorry for the kinda thread hijack that came out of all this.
