In the early aughts, writer Ed Brubaker introduced Captain America readers to a formidable new adversary: - The Winter Soldier. The revelation that this twisted mirror image of Cap was actually his former kid sidekick Bucky Barnes dropped jaws and shook the foundations of the Marvel Universe.

Other topics include: the kid sidekick trope and why Marvel comics eventually steered away from that, the seeds that Captain America: The First Avenger was already planting in regards to Bucky’s fate, why Civil War’s climax is such a great inversion of the traditional third act set piece, all the ways in which The Winter Soldier represents Cap's worst fears, your answers for Ultimate Match Up, and much more!
