Marvel makes me angry sometimes. So this is not the first time he's dead I know but Bucky never really reached his full potential. My main angry point is that he had a lot of character background he could have covered for example he could have visited his sister Rebecca Barnes Proctor. Or visited his the memorial that was built in his honor. All of this was established in Captain America 48 of the 1998 volume. The reason I'm bringing this up is because I found this issue lying around in my collection and I thought it would have been kind of cool to see Bucky see his sister. Or see the momument that was built at the point where Steve thought Bucky met his final resting place. Idk....does anyone else feel like this would have been a good idea?

I honestly thought his sister was dead...? O_o But then again I haven't read many issues before Brubaker's run so I could be wrong.
 
But you are not the only one who is angry, Marvel has ticked off myself and a lot of other Bucky fans that I know of here on the site with killing him off. His death was unnecessary and only happened so that Steve could return to being Captain America for the movie. It was a waste of years of character development and growth which we could have continued to see more off if Marvel didn't pull crap like this with killing characters off for the sake of movies and big comic events. (I would rant a lot more....but I've filled plenty of threads concerning this issue and honestly....I'm tired of ranting at this point...)

Did Bucky die in the comics the same week that the movie in which he dies was released?

Maybe they'll be some cop out pilot device that brings him back at the end of Fear itself =p

@War Killer: I know how you feel.

I am doubting that this is permanent because in the Avengers comic Hulk was talking about him like he has something big yet to do.

His name isn't Ben and this is Marvel he'll be back

So, assuming he's really dead, I guess Marvel might really be as bad as many say.

I mean; Why bring Bucky back after decades of being dead only to kill him off again so soon? It's just plain bad writing.

Poor Bucky! :( It was just so stupid that they had to kill him off. 

Shame, Bucky was an interesting Cap.....Steve Rogers returning to the role is a cop out.

I swear, unless fraction or some other writer has Odin return Bucky to life as thanks for helping his ass against the serpent. I am boycotting every marvel book that is tied to a major 616 event.
