Bucky

A member of Freedom Force stepping onto the scene in 1987, this Copper Age Bucky debuted in Marvel Age Annual #3 under the hands of Steve Englehart and Al Milgrom — and already that debut carries collector-significant weight as a key issue. With just a handful of appearances concentrated in Captain America and Marvel Age Annual, this is a compact but intriguing corner of the Marvel universe, sharing pages with the likes of Captain America, Steve Rogers, Johnny Walker, and Lemar Hoskins during one of the title's most turbulent and fascinating eras. For fans who love digging into the layered, morally complex storytelling of late-'80s Marvel, this Freedom Force-affiliated Bucky is a rewarding find hiding in plain sight.
