As they say in Westeros, what is dead may never die. But he-who-was-thought-to-be-dead-and-reportedly-is-dead-so-why-is-he-everywhere-maybe-he-isn't-actually-dead makes a brutal and ambiguous appearance on Game of Thrones' latest Season 6 poster, once again bringing up the most un-killable question of the past year: Is Jon Snow alive?

In this case, signs point to yes. Snow was seen in the first Season 6 poster sporting blood spatters and at least appearing to stand upright. The new artwork shows the same wounds on his face -- now cleaned, but unhealed. It's worth noting that neither image shows Snow's eyes, meaning he could return as undead, if he's not technically alive. As if that weren't stressful enough, HBO rolled out even more posters of characters both living and dead, to illustrate what we learned way back in Season 1: No one is safe.
