An MCU fan favorite met a fitting end in the new series.
Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Secret Invasion Episode 1.Secret Invasion has wasted no time proving itself as a high-stakes superhero spy thriller, with the first episode seeming to kill off one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s longest-running characters. The decision to write the character out after 11 years with the franchise is bold and likely to cause controversy with fans and critics but the actual in-story staging of the death is well-handled.
By the time of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, the pair’s working relationship was much closer. When Fury discovers evidence of corruption within S.H.I.E.L.D. Maria is the first person he contacts for assistance. She helps him fake his own death after he is targeted for assassination by Bucky Barnes/the Winter Soldier .
Maria Hill's End Fits the Trajectory of Her Life Despite her long Marvel history prior to Secret Invasion, Maria never received much in the way of character development. But in some ways that contributes to why her death in the series is fitting. Unlike many of the franchise’s costumed heroes Maria never let personal baggage interfere with her doing her job, the most important duty of which is saving lives.
