AFDs can be valid, but if the people who voted were misinformed or if
additional info has come to light, being valid doesn't mean the AFD
decision should remain indefinitely. "Keep deleted, valid AFD" has
reached a point when such a comment is no longer informative. I think
such comments should be discounted and people should be encouraged to
explain why they think there's no reason to revisit the decision in
question.

No, you can't. If you recreate an article on the same topic as a
previously deleted one, it will be speedied, and VFU won't likely
accept that it was "rewritten" as an excuse.

That would be against policy unless the articles were similar.
I would start a VFU debate and make sure I'd add proof this comic was
indeed popular.
With the lack of Google hits initially cited it was unverifiable for
the original voters. If you can change that they might change their
mind.
Unfortunately, people seem to think that AfD is Perfect and that you
can't undelete if the AfD was "valid"; I've seen several votes on VfU
simply saying "Keep deleted, valid AfD". What AfD (and VfU) needs is a
swift kick in the pants.
And possibly the bloc voters need one too.
