I also don't believe that Sirius is dead. First, the
spell that hit Sirius is not the usual green of the
AK, and the Canon never said what spell it was.
Second, before the fighting, Harry and the gang saw
the veil moving, so it must mean that many souls are
passing by this veil. (Take note: Souls.) Sirius went
through the veil flesh and bone... and I think that it
just transported Sirius somewhere else. (Just like
Dante's Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso.) I think
that there will be a Chapter in HBP that will end in
Harry in trouble, then Sirius out of nowhere saves
him. And the next Chapter will tell of Sirius' Journey
Through the Veil (probably tell Harry that he met his
James and Lily inside the Veil).

I know this has been debated to death, but ooo! My
heart leapt up, imagining Sirius flying in (slow
motion, of course, possibly on motorcycle), ragged
black hair flying behind him, attacking unknown-as-yet
beast that is hurting Harry. (Imagine something
similar to Aragon flying in with flaming torch and
singing sword at Weathertop in LOTR FOTR film, though
never thought of Aragon as hot before).
I never thought of his return in this way. But yes,
that man can make an entrance (thinking behind the
door, thinking black dog hanging out in Hogsmeade,
thinking yelling at screaming mum portrait).
My personal theory is that Harry has to journey into
the underworld, Sirius is his "guide" or his purpose,
but that Harry will have to leave Sirius in the
underworld. I think this because Sirius now
represents, for Harry, Voldie's weaknesses (death and
love), so he'll be important for the end of Voldie.
Sirius is not gone, but he is.
Although I'm not sure if falling into the underworld
(land of the dead) would kill someone, I have a
feeling that JKR would (i.e. she wants Sirius dead).
In mythology, staying in the land of the dead
certainly can become hazardous to one's health. The
curse combined with the veil probably killed Sirius.
It just feels so final at the end of OOP.
But I do love the idea!!!
Kelsey, who thinks of Sirius as the Obi-Wan Kenobi
character (i.e. died ambiguous death, will return, but
dead guilt-ridden best friend of father-of-hero, guide
and parallel to hero).
