I'd say Metroid. It started great and became great culminating in Super Metroid... then was suddenly not seen again in the N64 generation. Not even portable I believe.

And then on the GC Metroid Prime was released.

I think a real comeback requires for the series to be crap and then great again. With that said this thread is fail.

Don't call it a comeback
I been here for years
Rockin my peers and puttin suckas in fear

I don't believe so. A star suddenly MIA, then returning after a few years of silence is still considered a comeback in the movie and music industry. Even if all of his/her previous work was great the moment he/she stopped working. 

 

Well I guess you have a point in that sense however a lot of actors/athlete/franchises take a break at some point. But a comeback from what seemed like being down and out is much more interesting discussion. With that said there are a few good examples and this thread is going no where.
