The mystery of the Winter Soldier's file and the true story of Bucky Barnes which was introduced in Devil's Reign: Winter Soldier is continued in a new Captain America series. That series starts with an intro comic featuring both Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson in their Captain America roles.

In Captain America #0, the two Caps team up to defeat yet another catastrophic attack on New York City by Arnim Zola in his robotic alter ego form. It's all pretty basic and predictable, but at least there's some good banter between Steve and Sam as they compare shields and bicker good-naturedly over what each Cap should call himself.


After issue #0, their storylines diverge into two separate and unrelated series -- Steve Rogers (and Bucky Barnes) in Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty and Sam Wilson in Captain America: Symbol of Truth.

Since it's the Winter Soldier backstory I'm most interested in, I am reading the Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty series.
