At ComicCon I got the very strong feeling that they ARE bringing back Gabriel and/or the Trickster. All the panel seemed to be on board with that. It was a question by an audience member asking who they would like to see coming back from the dead and everybody chimed in very quickly almost at the same time about Gabriel. Maybe because Richard was in the audience, but Gabriel is the archangel protector of the prophet. Makes sense to me. LOVE Gabriel....

Gabriel back from the dead?

I'd actually like to see it, I think it could be very interesting (what did happen to all the Pagan Gods that weren't killed by Lucifer, after all?) and give the boys some powerful allies in the upcoming season.
Plus, imagine the ways it could be played for a laugh. "Gabriel, you're back!" "No, I'm Loki." "Oh, okay, you're Loki. Gotcha."Comment

This seems to be a popular theory of how Richard can come back. We don't know what happened to Loki/the Trickster. Did Gabriel kill him when he took his place? Just put him in a box (or Purgatory) somewhere? Does Loki not even know someone has been impersonating him? They could very much bring Richard back as the Trickster (and at the SDCC panel when the panel was asked who they would want to bring back several of them said Richard and that got a huge round of applause) would be very plausible.

Assuming or not, it would be a brilliant idea to bring back the actor without having to bring back the actual archangel since there's no reason for it, imo.Comment

That would be very cool. And I could very much see that happened, as well.Comment

In the first episode where we see the Trickster, it is mentioned that that he is also known by Loki, a demigod. When the Trickster is killed in the theater, we seen him staring at his dead body, which then they both disappear. I haven't gotten as far as the other eps where Trickster/Loki/Gabriel appear in (I'm rewatching the series...again!) but it's obvious that this triple-character keeps coming back. How can we know for sure, other than him saying "if you are watching this I must be dead" line in the video that it was actually taped BEFORE he died? We are dealing with a Trickster you know....
I think any way the writers come up with Gabriel reappearing is fine by me. There is enough question about who and what he is to make it easy to explain. Gabriel is also tied in with the lore of Metatron. The Word of God is the story line this season....makes sense to me.Comment

Lucifer killed Gabriel. He is dead. He had a great sendoff. I sincerely hope that they don't bring him back.Comment

There's simply no reason for Gabriel to return, BUT....I still have my fingers crossed for the real Loki to show up.Comment

I don't doubt that they will bring him back at some point, but they really shouldn't.
Hasn't stopped them with other characters though.Comment

Re: Gabriel back from the dead?
I would LOVE it if they brought him back. A way I think they could pull it off is the Angel Tablet, think about it, if it has everything on angels, then it is possible that they will use it to bring back Gabriel? I sure hope so I miss him and his Trickster ways!Comment

It would seem silly. And I can't imagine them coming up with any scenario where resurrecting Gabriel doesn't seem silly. If Gabriel returns it feels like they're only doing it because of how popular the character and Richard Speight Jr. are among the fans not because they have come up with some cool/great story that requires Gabriel to return. Like I said before I thought he had a great sendoff, he went down fighting and the Casa Erotica - thing was awesome, haha.
I suppose the only way it could work is if he's in a time-travel episode, where the Winchesters go back in time and run into him or something like that, but haven't we had enough episodes set in the past already?Comment
