Rhaegar Targaryen is Jon's father. Last season in a Bran flashback, he sees a young Ned Stark come to Lyanna Stark (Ned's sister) on her death bed. Lyanna whispers to Ned "promise me". Robert Baratheon claimed Rhaegar kidnapped Lyanna but it wasn't true, they ran off with each other. Rhaegar was Daenerys's brother.

You should also probably point out that Rhaegar was the Mad King's oldest son and heir to the throne. Next in line was that twat Viserys (golden crownboy) and then Dany. In actuality, I believe Jon has a decent claim on the throne as well.

With JON already being a DEAD MAN, as soon as he encounters the ICE KING again he'll probably also be made a member of his DEAD ARMY.

Remember how the ICE KING simply looked at the INFANT and turned it into one of them?

I thought of that too, but on second thought that would be a huge letdown. It would be more exciting if, because Jon died and was brought back, that he is now immune to being turned by the Night King.

Thank you.

The last Targaryen king was the Mad King Aerys. He was father to Rhaegar, Viserys, and Danaerys.

Rhaegar fathered Jon through his liaison with Lyanna Stark (but it is uncertain whether he married her). If he did, Jon is the Targaryen heir. If it didn't, it's Dany.

Brilliant observation cs, but what if the NIGHT KING turns everyone else into White Walkers but JON, and then he's also not even able to kill himself after that?

That would also mean he's the only living human left, and if he can't die or commit suicide, then all he can do is continue to keep growing older and older.

But if that happens that means that Arya is dead, and if Arya dies we riot.
