    Back From the Dead

    Bucky Barnes and Natasha Romanoff are trying to track down the people who woke up the Sleeper Agents to use them for personal gain.

    Plus

    Great art on the cover. I didn't want to pick this issue up at first but the artwork and title logo was just too good on this issue. The art inside the issue was excellent as well. The layout was clean and the environment was neatly drawn. The story was simple and sellable and the creators found a way to make it interesting. The dialogue for the entire issue was great, especially the interactions between the two protagonists as it showed how deep a connection they really have. The creators' understanding of Barnes and Romanoff was well displayed as they showcased the heroes' primary skill which separates them from others, stealth and espionage.

    Minus

    With how well the creators focused on Bucky and Black Widow's relationship, it seems that the story will revolve around them, which betrays the title for this series. Black Widow is admirable, but it would've been better for the issue to showcase Bucky kicking ass and not sharing air time with another hero.

    Final Score

    This opening issue turned out to be a great purchase and you'd be a fool not to pick it up. The storyline is currently a blurred image which will be clearer as the next issues come up. 4/5 stars.

It reads like a spy novel and looks like a video game, the likes of MW3.I thought the concept and plot were fantastic. The story has been setup for an exciting arc that should take us through a great number of issues. Not only do we see Bucky and Natasha's primary mission (search and destroy sleeper agents), we see his target's primary mission (take out Doctor Doom - which may not be all that ba...

      Bucky seeks for redemption and finds a whole lot more. 0

      This is Issue 1 of the new Winter Soldier series. This is Bucky basically trying to make up for his mistakes but in a seriously great way. He is also has the help of the Black Widow and Jasper Sitwell.The cover is great I love the art and the background images of Bucky's past really adds to the feel of the issue. The story is very good there are plenty of surprises in this issue. This is a spy book so obviously there is going to be a lot of guns and espionage and there is. The art is very good I...
