death means very little in comic book settings as a permanent thing but it can still leave an impact if done correctly - we all know in any media where Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Iron Man, Hulk or big hitting heroes (Spider-Man, Black Panther etc) dies they will return but what can still get our emotions going is if the story makes the deaths meaningful or unexpected.. it also helps if they don't bring them back immediatedly after the "death".

Wolverine's latest "death" was more acceptable in this regard as he stayed "dead" for a longer time-frame than most other "big hitting heroes" - a minimum of a year or so (in-universe) should be a rule to follow.. instant resurrection of heroes ruins a story but their return is inevitable.. as long as MCU keeps some of them dead for longer than just a single instalment it is acceptable.
