Post by Col_Fury »

CAPTAIN AMERICA & BUCKY #620 (September 2011)
By Ed Brubaker, Marc Andreyko & Chris Samnee

APPEARANCES:
James “Bucky” Barnes, James Barnes Sr. (Bucky’s dad), Rebecca P. Barnes (Bucky’s sister), Maj. Samson, Gen. Phillips, Captain America, US military, British military, bystanders

SYNOPSIS:
1935: Bucky’s sister falls asleep after their mother’s funeral. Over the next few years Bucky, his dad and his sister make some good memories and move around from military base to base as his dad is reassigned. When his dad dies, Bucky is adopted by Camp LeHigh and his sister is sent to boarding school. 1940: Bucky is the camp mascot and gets various items (cigarettes, girly magazines, etc.) for the soldiers. When he goes into town he gets involved in a brawl and is arrested. He meets with Gen. Phillips, who has him trained in England for special combat. During this time he sees newsreals of Captain America and is impressed. Eventually, Bucky completes his training, is sent back to Camp LeHigh and is officially introduced to Captain America. Bucky is given a uniform and chooses the name “Bucky.”

NOTE:
Some of this expands previous flashbacks (like CA5 50-FB), and some of this repeats previous flashbacks (like CA5 12-FB & CA5 14-FB).

CAPTAIN AMERICA & BUCKY #621 (October 2011)

FLASHBACK:
The Invaders fight some German soldiers (a month or so ago?). The Invaders fight some Atlanteans, but U-Man escapes. Sub-Mariner scolds Bucky for almost getting himself killed (three weeks before main story).
SYNOPSIS:
Poland, early 1942: The Invaders are captured, but not Bucky. He finds them in a castle being experimented on by (a still human) Arnim Zola, who has given a man temporary powers based on the Invaders. Bucky frees the Invaders and fights the empowered man until Cap knocks the guy out. Sub-Mariner compliments Bucky in a back-handed way, but Bucky takes the accolade anyway.

SYNOPSIS:
Late 1944: Cap, Torch and Sub-Mariner have been called away to meet the President. Left behind, Bucky and Toro overhear that a US spy has been discovered and captured. They take it upon themselves to free him, but are surprised to see he’s in a concentration camp. They get him out but are yelled at by Army superiors. The next day Cap returns and tells Bucky he did a good job. Later, Bucky loses an arm fighting Baron Zemo.
