Description
Author: Ed Brubaker; Illustrator: Lee Weeks.
In the midst of the harsh division of the Civil War, James Buchanan Barnes, Captain America’s one-time partner Bucky, faces his first Christmas of the 21st century. And faces the truth of the terrible things he was forced to do as the Winter Soldier. And with Cap caught in a conflict he can neither take a side of – or understand – what moves can he make to try to redeem himself? And what do Hydra have planned for New York this Christmas?
Featuring guest appearances by the Young Avengers and some of the original Invaders, this Special issue is an action-packed character study that defines the Winter Soldier’s future place in the Marvel Universe. By Wizard Top Ten writer Ed Brubaker, with dynamic art by Lee Weeks (Civil War Frontline) and a cover by Cap fan-fave Steve Epting.
“Winter Kills” turns out to be a surprisingly melancholic and nostalgic look back to the early days of Bucky’s life and allows readers to feel the struggle of repentance and acceptance for another man who is also out of time.
