We've got an interesting situation here.  First, I don't think Belatrix
managed to kill Sirius in book five.  To be honest with you, I think he
tripped or something and ended up falling behind the veil.  Now, when Harry
is talking to Nick, Nick definitely says that Sirius chose, and I underline
chose here, to go on.  That seems to indicate that the man definitely died.
Now, I do hope there is a way for Sirius to come back in some fashion, but
how's he going to swing it?  And to think all this could have been avoided
if Harry had had the sense to remember and use that little mirror!  June

Well, as I have said I can't deny that he really might be dead. Nothing is clear yet. In her webchat J.K.R. didn't answer if Sirius will be back in other form. It is one of the reasons why I believe he might be back. And to the member that mentioned an example from other Mythologies.

I also mentoined in my first post about Mythology that Sirius has some simmilarities, on certain points with Gandalf, from The Lord of the Rings.

Well, first they both are trapped in a place with no obvious escape, Sirius in a office high in a tower and Gandalf high on the tower of Isengard. They both escape with the help of a flying creature, Sirius with buckbeak, Gandalf with an eagle. And they both seem to die, well at least Gandalf when everything seem to be over, Sirius when Dumbledore appears and everyone else stopped fighting and Gandalf when the Balrock had fallen in the abyss. I wonder if Sirius will follow the same course. I actually think it would be very exiting I would be glad to discuss it.
