As the Winter Soldier, Bucky specially trained three sleeper agents for Russia. Two have been eliminated, but one hasn't resurfaced.The one who got away has dangerous plans.There is some gritty spy stuff happening in Broken Arrow. One of Bucky's trainees was shocked awake years early and was seemingly lost. He rediscovers who he was and during that time he realizes the Winter Soldier lives. He has plans to make Bucky suffer. I enjoyed the intrigue and the uncertainty. Broken Arrow was an awesome...
What is up with Black Widow’s pointy head on this cover? She looks like a new red Crayon.Aside from Nathasha’s freakish melon on the front, this is another great installment in which the Winter Soldier is trying to stop a renegade assassin that he trained years ago and who was roused from cryogenic sleep when an earthquake shatters the frozen test tube he was napping in. Naturally, he’s a little grumpy and begins an elaborate revenge plan on Bucky and Natasha.It’s another solid spy story about t...
tbh probably my favorite comic volume in history. wbk how much i love bucky and natasha together.
Oh god. If I have the money I'm going to order the next Winter Soldier TPB as soon as I get off this damn train. This one's more emotional all the way through than the first one: that was set-up, this is the show. It's a heck of a ride, with Tasha compromised and Bucky willing to do literally anything for her sake, to save her, and to keep her from doing anything she'll regret. To me, that's more involving than the risk of death: Bucky himself shows that death isn't permanent for Marvel heroes,
The more I read Ed Brubaker's Winter Soldier the more I realize that all things must come to an end. In this regard I am talking about Brubaker's long run on Captain America which was contemporaneously ending while Brubaker was writing the Winter Soldier series as well. For much of the latter run of Brubaker on Captain America (which is considered volume 6 of the series), Brubaker feels like he is going through the motions, likely having said all he needed to say about the Steve Rogers Capta...
Holy CRAP! That was so awesome. I can't wait to read the next vol. I know I'm asking for an impossible, but it would be nice if some time life wouldn't kick Bucky's ass. He deserves some peace, the poor baby.
I usually don't read many comics; I prefer sticking to books. However, there are some notable exceptions, and the Winter Soldier comic series is definately one of them. And since I've read all 3 volumes, I will make a general review about all of them here.I loved this comic. It was exactly as I wanted it: dark, serious, mysterious, thrilling, well-drawn, and well-written. It made me fall in love with Ed Brubaker and his storytelling style. I really liked how the story developped, it kept me on e...
No you don't understand I am OBSESSED. I want to go on a roof and screech like a pterodactyl. The story is so put together, the action is great. So much spy stuff goes on and it was so exciting. Fucking BUCKYNAT? Banger. This run has literally everything you could want from Bucky & Natasha and I'm sobbing.Natasha's hair is so funny though. When you buy that as seen on tv hair bump thing lol.
In the words of Eleanor Shellstrop, “Holy forking shirtballs” this comic was so good. The cliffhanger?! I cant handle it. I will be starting the third volume as soon as I have a chance. Side note, I love it they include a ballet because I get so excited anytime there’s dance in a book.
This second volume of this iteration of the ongoing Winter Soldier comic built on the strong premise of the first book. The whole series kicked off with the classic espionage story trope of sleeper agents being reactivated for other purposes - something obviously close to the Winter Soldier's own personal history. This book continues that story exploration since one of the sleepers still wasn't accounted for.And the only thing worst than a reactivated sleeper agent is a rogue sleeper agent witho...
There's still one more Soviet sleeper agent missing, and Winter Soldier and Black Widow are trying to find him. What would a sleeper agent, expecting to wake up in the Cold War but finding himself in the modern age, do upon activating? Without the drugs, the procedures, the usual coping mechanisms, he'd kind of go crazy. And that's what's happened- he's not looking to follow his orders anymore, he's looking to find a way to make the world make sense. And to him the only thing that makes sense is...
Amazing stuff. Brubaker continues to make this title the James Bond of the Marvel universe, and does it flawlessly, with a plot that dances around between time periods and settings with ease and keeps the adrenaline pumping through all four issues. There's an evil cliffhanger ending at the end of the trade too, so volume 3 can't come quick enough. The art from Michael Lark is exceptional as well, just as good if not better than the last time he collaborated with Brubaker on Daredevil.
More interesting than volume 1. Made me more keen to read the rest.
My head would be spinning.
I really do love Brubaker’s work, and I obviously gave this volume 4 stars because there is a lot I do really like about this. But what if, for once, the only prominent woman in the story didn’t get kidnapped / brainwashed? Just a suggestion. I do know it is different here with Natasha and her history, but must we damsel women to be saved by the man the book is named after? Honestly, this series should probably have been titled The Winter Soldier and The Black Widow because I have been really en...
I am loving this series!! I’ve never read any of the Avengers comics or their spin offs before and this does not disappoint. Natasha is wonderfully cool and kicks so much ass which is a beautiful thing to behold and quite frankly this is why I like women in comic books; I don’t care if they’re drawn seductively as some suggest, I see them as strong and capable and always on a par with the men in the team, gimme more! Ahhh Bucky.... he may be the only guy capable of stealing my heart away from Wo...
mmmm those color schemes
This is a great espionage comic.
Am I still having feelings about Bucky Barnes? You betcha! I'm also still have feelings about this art.
The third sleeper agent trained by the Winter Soldier surfaces, and takes aim at the Winter Soldier. Good writing and art. But a short collection.
