A character killed and revived before
The Winter Soldier death was teased in the weeks leading up to the event. In Marvel comics, Bucky Barnes was presumed dead for over four decades before being revived as the Winter Soldier. Barnes was killed by Sin in 2011's Fear Itself but was revived shortly afterwards, and in the MCU he died after Thanos used the Infinity Gauntlet in 2018's Avengers: Infinity War and was revived in Avengers: Endgame.
The comic death arrives months before the character begins preparations to face off against Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday.
