Not sure about this:

* The 1990s animated \'\'[[XMenTheAnimatedSeries X-Men]]\'\' series did an adaptation of the \'\'Dark Phoenix\'\' saga. One of the most enduring, powerful moments in the original comic-book Dark Phoenix saga was when Jean Grey got KilledOffForReal. In the animated adaptation, she died, but the rest of the X-Men were allowed to [[DisneyDeath bring her back to life]] by each sacrificing a small part of their life force. It was like instead of Jean dying, everybody else had a head cold for a week or two.

I\'m pretty sure that, at the time the animated series was made, Jean had been BackFromTheDead for about ten years, with the explanation that [[ActuallyADoombot the Pheonix had taken her form, but wasn\'t really her]]. Is it SparedByTheAdaptation if the character isn\'t really dead in the source, and there just hasn\'t been a decade of everyone \'\'thinking\'\' they\'re dead?
