Creation
According to Jeff Loub , each issue illustrates one of the five so-called stages of the reaction to death : denial, anger, bargaining, depression, humility [1] . The name was inspired by Loub by his own life experience - in 2005 he lost his son, Sam Loub [2] . In each episode, one of the Marvel characters appears as a central one, and a few as secondary, and the plot gradually moves from one stage to another, which creates a strong connection between all five issues. The first issue - denial with the main character as Wolverine , the second - anger with two teams, “ New Avengers ” and “ Mighty Avengers ”, the third - bargaining and Captain America itself , the fourth - depression with Spider-Man , and the fifth - humility with Iron by man [3] [4] .

Wolverine is arguing with the Winter Soldier (Bucky) that Steve Rogers’s death in broad daylight in a crowd of people is suspicious, especially after both - Steve Rogers and Bucky - experienced a fall from an airplane and a state of coma, being frozen in ice. Wolverine was not able to convince the Winter Soldier to go to the SHIELD headquarters to see for himself the death of Steve. He takes with him Daredevil , who, with his ability to hear the slightest changes in the heartbeat and determine whether a person is lying or not, can understand if the agents are lying about the real circumstances of the Captain's death. With the help of Doctor Strange , they arrive at the SHIELD aircraft carrier , where they find Crossbones held by agents suspected of killing Steve. Wolverine interrogates him, and he confesses that he fired the first shot at Rogers from a sniper rifle. Wolverine does not believe him and intends to take revenge, but he is stopped by Daredevil, who confirms that Crossbones does not lie. When Daredevil leaves, Wolverine heads to where the agents are holding Captain America's body to see with his own eyes. He encounters Iron Man (Tony Starck) and Hank Pym , who take him to the body, and looking into Rogers in the coffin, he notes that his shield is missing and concludes that Tony Stark appropriated him and took over the search for a replacement. Rogers as Captain America. Pym is trying to detain Wolverine, but Stark allows him to leave and tell the others that Rogers is really dead, despite all his suspicions. When leaving, Wolverine warns Stark that if he is somehow connected with the death of the Captain, then he himself will kill him.
