I was thinking about Jojo the other day and I came up with this theory, it might not be perfect, it probably has tons of holes, but it seems okay for me.

The basis for my theory, and basically what it entirely centers around, is the concept that DIO can sorta 'copy' that stands of the Joestars. Whether that's due to him hating the bloodline so much, being attached to Jonathon's body, or him being a vampire combined with one of those, he can somehow copy the stands of the Joestars. Now after part 3, the main character of the next two parts have abilites based off of healing or whatnot. Josuke with crazy diamond's healing/rewind ability thing, and Giorno with his life creating thing. You can probably see where I'm heading with this, somehow, whether it DIO's hate for the Joestars, or him being a vampire, or something, his soul can linger past death. Since souls are the things that control and sorta 'hold' stands, DIO develops these two new stands based off of healing. Combining these two stands together, it might be possible to bring back somebody from the dead, body and everything. As such DIO then revives himself, and boom, now DIO's alive.

Oppositions that you might have and my answers to them:

Josuke's crazy diamond can't affect himself, so since DIO copied it, how come he can? - The previous stand he copied (hermit purple and star platinum) were very similar, but also different. One obvious for hermit purple, he didn't have to smash the camera. So it would make sense that his abilites might make it to where he can heal himself somehow.

Giorno isn't a traditional Joestar bloodline member, it's DIO's son, so how could he copy GE? - Giorno is also Jonathon's son, so it works too.

(Can't think of anymore at this time, if I can I'll just edit it later)
