I know that Bentham sacrificed himself to save Luffy so that he can escape
from Impel Down. He disguised as Magellan to open the gates for Luffy, but
later the real Magellan came and it seems like the two fight each other (not
in screen).

My friends believed that he's dead at that fight. But when I read
[this](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Bentham), it is stated that he's
currently become the new queen of Newkama Land.

So I want to know, is Bentham or Bon Kurei dead or alive after Impel Down arc?
If he alive, have he shown in comics ar anime after Impel Down arc?

Is Bentham really dead?


I've seen this chapter cover that shows Mr.2 Bon Kurei is alive and is the new
Queen of Newkama Land, so most probably he/she survived after Luffy left him
in Impel Down. And aside from this I haven't read or seen him in any chapters
after the Impel Down arc.
