Captain America: Winter Soldier is a story arc in Marvel's Captain America comics. It was written by Ed Brubaker, and published in 2005 as the first part of Captain America (2004), running from issues #1-9 and #11-14note #10 is exempted from the storyline due to being an unrelated House of M tie-in .While adjusting to life in 2000s New York City, Steve Rogers receives an astonishing call from S.H.I.E.L.D.: the Red Skull has been assassinated and whoever killed him has stolen the Cosmic Cube. With the help of Sharon Carter, Steve follows the Skull's posthumous tracks for his mass bombings across the world, while Nick Fury investigates their prime suspect, Alexander Lukin, the CEO of Kronas Corporation. What clues they find seem to indicate that Lukin now has control of a Reality Warping artifact, and of a Cold War legend known as the Winter Soldier...The events of this arc were loosely adapted in the 2014 movie Captain America: The Winter Soldier. As a tie-in to the film, the comic was reprinted in a deluxe hardcover edition. Additionally, Brubaker himself made a cameo in the film. | |

Comic-Book Time: While visiting Arlington National Cemetery, Steve laments that he couldn't be around to see the Civil Rights movement or the Moon Landing during the 60s. In the real world, Cap's return to comics came in 1964, but the comics' timeline keeps moving back the date of when he returned. | |

Wham Line: Out of Time #1 ends in a massive change to the status quo, with the sudden death of Captain America's nemesis: In Out of Time #6, the identity of the Winter Soldier is revealed. What makes it so shocking is that he is Bucky Barnes, Captain America's sidekick from World War II who was long presumed to be dead. The ending of Winter Soldier #14 offers a twist that completely changes how readers interpret Lukin's actions. It turns out that the reason why said villain conducted a personal crusade against Captain America is because his mind was being taken over by Red Skull's consciousness: | |

Disney Death | |
| Captain America: Winter Soldier (Comic Book) / int_6ef6417b | comment |
Disney Death: Winter Soldier turns out to be Bucky Barnes, thought dead since 1945. Zemo's experimental bomb plane didn't kill him, but it blew off his left arm and wiped out his memories. He's been in stasis between assassination missions, having aged only five years biologically since World War II. After Steve uses the Cube to restore Bucky's memories, Barnes smashes the cube in a fit of rage, and it seemingly disintegrates him. Steve, however, insists he's still alive and it turns out he's right, as Bucky was teleported by the Cube to the ruins of Camp Lehigh. The Red Skull is assassinated at the end of the first issue, and S.H.I.E.L.D. does extensive testing on his corpse to be sure it's really him. But Lukin finds out to his detriment that the Skull's consciousness was preserved in the Cosmic Cube, and Lukin's frequent exposure to it has caused the Skull to reawaken inside Lukin's own mind. | |

Superman Stays Out of Gotham: Iron Man joins Captain America and Falcon in storming an AID secret base, but he asks to be left out of the assault on Kronas's vault. His reason is that he just fought off a takeover from Lukin's company last month, and fears participating in a raid on a Kronas facility would look like corporate sabotage by Stark Industries. The Falcon still lends a hand in the raid, though. | |

Lukin's megalomania and the Winter Soldier assassin turn out to be distant revenge plots by the long-deceased General Karpov, a Soviet general who blamed Captain America for the death of his men during World War II. Jack Monroe is killed off on his second page in the comic. An interlude issue reveals what he was doing the year beforehand, namely, dying of illness. | |

| Captain America: Winter Soldier (Comic Book) / int_8b67aba7 | comment |
Cerebus Retcon: When Bucky was first introduced, he was a chipper early teens boy who accidentally discovered Captain America's Secret Identity, and so was made into his sidekick by the Army. Here Steve Rogers reveals that was just propaganda. Bucky was sixteen when he first became Steve's partner, and he wasn't some lucky fanboy but a Military Brat who was trained to be a deadly assassin. It was his job to do the black ops messy bits Captain America couldn't be seen doing. Far cry from the cheery Kid Sidekick introduced in the 1940s. | |

It's Personal: Sharon Carter has a personal reason for wanting the Winter Soldier dead, even after she learns he's Bucky: Winter Soldier caused the bombing in Philadelphia that killed her boyfriend Neal Tapper. Part of what unnerves Steve about Lukin's plot is that the man keeps making his schemes personal to Cap, including ordering the murder of his former partner Jack Monroe, kidnapping Sharon Carter, defacing the graves of former Captain Americas William Naslund and Jeffrey Mace, sending him false memories through the Cosmic Cube of Bucky's death, and even using his former friend Bucky Barnes against him. He even goes so far as to give Steve the file on Bucky's brainwashing and missions as the Winter Soldier. Steve doesn't understand why Lukin is trying so hard to screw with him, when until the last few days he'd never even heard of Lukin. It turns out to not be Lukin, but the Red Skull in Lukin's mind who has the real vendetta. | |

My God, What Have I Done?: Lukin has a crisis of conscience when he loses his temper and nearly kills his friend Leo. He then orders the Cosmic Cube to be sent someplace obscure and impenetrable where nobody can get it. After the Winter Soldier gets his memory back, he smashes the Cosmic Cube in anger of how many deaths it's caused. It teleports him in the process, and at first Sharon thinks Bucky must have killed himself in guilt with it. | |

Author Filibuster: While taking a stroll with Sharon through Paris, Steve talks at length about his time fighting with the French Resistance, and how he resents Americans calling the French cowards when Steve saw men, women, and children fighting with whatever scraps they could to get the Nazis off their land. It's actually not a bad speech, as Brubaker shows his work about the Western Front, and wrote it in response to Ultimate Captain America's infamous "You think this A on my head stands for France?" taunt. | |

Renegade Russian: Aleksander Lukin and his mercenaries are these. Many of them were high-ranking Soviet military, but after the Cold War ended went off the map, resentful of their loss of power. Lukin, a former general now-turned-CEO, hopes that with the Cosmic Cube he can recreate the USSR. In his very first scene, Red Guardian attempts to arrest him under the orders of President Yeltsin for "crimes against the Motherland", but Lukin kills him, retorting that he is all that's left of the true Motherland. | |

Child Soldiers | |
| Captain America: Winter Soldier (Comic Book) / int_c9c756a8 | comment |
Child Soldiers: The story pitched to the public was that Bucky was a counter-symbol to the Hitler Youth just as Captain America was a counter-symbol to the Red Skull. While this was mostly true, what wasn't said was that Bucky had basically been living on a military base most of his life, so he was no mere kid anymore. The general overseeing Project Rebirth considering deploying Bucky an acceptable rule-bending, as he figured there were plenty of 16 year-olds in the Army who had lied to enlist. Unlike most depictions of this trope, though, Bucky is relatively well-adjusted, lacking the sociopathic attitude of most child soldiers and willing to show mercy and spare prisoners. | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business | |
| Captain America: Winter Soldier (Comic Book) / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: The first sign that the Cube is pushing Lukin off the deep end is when he casually threatens to castrate his friend Leo when he first insinuates something wrong with that thing. Later on he seriously claims he'll kill Leo if he speaks up about it again, culminating in throwing a table at him. It turns out to be the effects of the Red Skull possessing his mind. The businessmen at Lukin's bidding meeting demand to know that the Cube he's showing them is the real deal. Lukin points out that the fact that they're all here in his secret meeting room without their security is proof, as it's something they'd never do on their own if not for the Cube influencing them. After Winter Soldier is revealed to be Bucky, Steve and Sharon argue about if it's right to kill him. Both agree that Bucky as they knew him would never murder civilians, but Sharon insists all that's left of Bucky's consciousness is gone, while Steve claims he's still buried there underneath his brainwashing. Winter Soldier's handlers know something is seriously wrong when the assassin starts questioning their orders, and even flat-out doesn't show up at the extraction point after a mission on U.S. soil, decamping to NYC instead. After that they keep him in stasis longer, and try to avoid deploying him again in the US when possible. | |
