Dead or Not George?!

I've always been a big fan of Star Wars & have tried to ignore the obvious cash grab releases of "New & Improved!" But there's some funny business going on with a teaser for Star Wars: The Clone Wars TV series. In Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace, we saw Darth Maul get sliced in half & fall down a shaft. All logic would dictate that he is dead and we shall never see this character again, right?...... WRONG!!

In this trailer that's been released for the Clone Wars, we see scenes from Phantom Menace of DM fighting, then we see a split second of an animated version of him (the TV show is animated if you weren't aware), followed by text saying "Darth Maul Returns this Spring."

Kinda brings to question, if you've killed off a character as such, how the hell do you bring him back? I'm curious enough to perhaps watch that episode to see how they will do it (and maybe that's mission accomplished from their point of view) but I can't see a scenario where bringing him back will sound feasible or work into the story. But I could cross my fingers & be surprised ;)
