Not all of them are dead '''[[AndIMustScream and it's implied they will remain alive, but trapped -- forever]]'''.

** Black Panther's initial fate in the story definitely qualifies as an instance of '''AndIMustScream'''. The zombie Hank Pym keeps him in a sedated state, so he can amputate bits of him over time to eat, while still keeping him alive just so he can have someone to talk to. Black Panther eventually manages to escape, but [[AnArmAndALeg not in one piece]].
** Hawkeye spent ''forty years'' as a head trapped under some rubble, '''[[AndIMustScream unable to escape or talk to anyone]]'''. When he's left alone, he cries. When someone tried to take off his mask, he thought they were trying to rip off his face!
