Supernaturalboss: Some long-dead characters will return in season 13

For all things Comic-Con 2017, visit our all-encompassingEW Comic-Conpage.

First up, Collins addressed Castiels death, to which he simply promised fans, Im not going away.

As he put it, Sam and Dean will handle things differently …

In Deans mind, [Jack] just simply has to go.

But because Sam is ever the optimist, he wont necessarily agree with Deans more practical approach.

As Padalecki said, Jack is half-Lucifer but hes also half-Kelly Cline.

So expect Sam to disagree with Deans shoot first, ask questions later attitude.

Thats a problem between the guys.

Singer added, Spoiler alert: Mom is not dead.
