I have 4 Nethershadows in my graveyard. During my upkeep, I bring one back to life.
Question:
If someone bolts the shadow after I brought it to life, can I bring the next shadow in line back to life immediately after the bolt?
If so, assume the shadows all came to life and all got bolted 4 times, can I bring the 1st shadow back to life again a 2nd time?
Also, BONUS question: any other creatures that have the same ability? And are these creatures Type 2? (haven't been into Magic for a while)

no. Upkeep abilities all trigger simultaneously, and only trigger once. Here's how it would look on the stack
Upkeep begins-all upkeep abilities trigger (including Nether Shadow). Nether Shadow's ability goes on the stack.
At this point he can't be bolted because the ability hasn't resolved yet.
Nether Shadow's ability resolves. Nehter Shadow comes into play.
Opponent casts Lightning Bolt targeting Nether Shadow. Bolt goes on the stack. Bolt Resolves, Shadow has lethal damage Shadow goes to the graveyard Note that Upkeep abilities trigger only once, and since priority has passed back and forth several times it cannot trigger again.
Also there is a ruling on Nether Shadow that says that four Nether Shadows cannot couse an infinite loop.
