Captain America Poster #86 Death of Bucky-Cap Winter Soldier Stuart Immonen

Description

How the roles have reversed! Winter Soldier, who replaced Cap when he was assassinated, lies lifeless in the arms of Steve Rogers! Bucky, James Buchanan “Bucky” Barnes, was created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby as a sidekick character in Captain America Comics #1. Decades later, the original Bucky was brought back from supposed death as the Winter Soldier in 2005 and then he becomes Captain America in 2008 after Steve Rogers was presumed to be dead, before returning as the Winter Soldier once more. Days after Steve’s return, Black Widow finds Bucky trying to design himself a new suit, stating that since Steve is back, he’ll be wanting his shield, but Widow disagrees and believes Bucky is a great Captain America, and shouldn’t have to give the shield up. She is finally able to convince Bucky to go out one more night as Captain America. As the two try to recapture the Hyde, who had escaped from Raft, Bucky sees Steve watching above and throws him his shield, allowing him to defeat Hyde. Steve then tries to give Bucky the shield back, stating that he’s Captain America, not him. After a talk, Steve tells Bucky that he’s not sure if he can pick up his shield again, saying that being Captain America means something more to Bucky and that he should keep doing it and that if Bucky won’t do it for himself, then to at least do it for him.
