Brently Madden's appearance is ironic because he was reported dead in a train accident by his wife, Mrs. Mallard. However, he unexpectedly returns home, oblivious to the news of his supposed death. This twist is ironic because Mrs. Mallard had just celebrated her newfound freedom and independence upon hearing of his death.
