At least one (originally found by Timo Ronkainen for a discussion in
Finnish comics newsgroup):

In "King Scrooge the First" W US 71-01 (story by Barks) 4000-year-old
magician kills himself by taking antidote to immortality powder.

As far as plain deaths are concerned, old Italian comics include a nice
collection of those.
