I'm no longer the Winter Soldier. I'm James Bucky Barnes, and you're part of my efforts to make amends.
―Bucky[src]

James Buchanan "Bucky" Barnes, formerly known as the Winter Soldier, is a Marvel Comics character, the protégé and childhood friend of Steve Rogers/Captain America.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he first appears in the film Captain America: The First Avenger as a member of an elite special unit of Allied soldiers formed in World War II known as the Howling Commandos. He was thought to be dead after falling off of Zola's train but survived and was brainwashed by HYDRA to become the most famous Winter Soldier. He was responsible for the deaths of Howard and Maria Stark.

After being free of HYDRA's control, Bucky became a very important ally of Captain America during the following events in the MCU, and eventually became one of the Avengers. He is fully recovered from the brainwashing during the period he stayed in Wakanda, where he became known as the White Wolf. After being healed from the brainwashing, Bucky was reunited with Steve Rogers and other Avengers two years later, where he joined them to battle Thanos and his army, who planned to erase half of the universe. Bucky was one of the millions who was disintegrated, before being brought back to life 5 years later.

After Barnes' return with half of the universe, and Thanos' defeat at Iron Man's self-sacrifice, Bucky witnessed Steve having returned as an old man to make Sam Wilson his successor as Captain America, with Bucky's permision. However, Bucky and Sam worked together to get Captain America's Shield back after John Walker was fired by the government as the new Captain America after murdering a member of the Flag Smashers out of revenge. Following this, Sam officially became Captain America with Bucky's support.

Three years later, Bucky became a member of congress and briefly came to support Sam after his ally, the new Falcon, Joaquin Torres, was in a critical situation. At least a couple of months after this, Bucky became suspicious of Valentina Allegra de Fontaine's work within the government and asked her assistant Melissa Gold to try to stop Val, before he found John Walker, Ava Starr, Alexi Shostakov and Yelena Belova, believing they wee working for Val, when they, in reality, realised what she had done and started to work together to try and stop her. Bucky worked alongside the newly formed Thunderbolts to confront Val once and for all when they came across Bob Reynolds as the Sentry. After defeating Reynolds' dark persona known as the Void, Bucky and the rest of the Thunderbolts, were announced by De Fontaine as the New Avengers, which Bob also joined.

Bucky Barnes was created by Jack Kirby and Joe Simon. White Wolf was created by Christopher Priest and Mark Texeira.

Bucky is loyal, brave, resilient and has a strong sense of justice much like his friend Captain America; during the 1940s he was charming, while in present times he tends to be more distant and self-contained.

As the Winter Soldier, Bucky was an elusive, dangerous, and amnesiac assassin. He was ruthless, brutal, and under the complete control of HYDRA. After Steve Rogers reminded him of his past, Bucky broke from his programming and saved his friend and former target from drowning.

He's fast... strong... had a metal arm.
―Steve Rogers describing the Winter Soldier

Powers

Superhuman Strength: The bionic arm gives him extraordinary superhuman strength, superior to that of Captain America's strength, though not quite on par with that of Spider-Man. Winter Soldier was able to rip open a S.H.I.E.L.D armored SUV, rip apart Falcon's EXO-7 suit, and smash concrete by punching it. With his bionic arm supporting his already enhanced natural strength, the Winter Soldier was shown to be able to overpower Captain America in a fight.

Superhuman Durability: Winter Soldier's cybernetic arm is incredibly resistant to physical damage. The cybernetic arm is shown to be bulletproof, made evident when Barnes used the arm to block several gunshots from a German officer.[3] After losing his original cybernetic arm, Barnes was given a new vibranium one by Black Panther. This new arm grants him even higher durability due to it being composed of vibranium, as well as the benefit of being vibration absorbent.

Abilities

Bucky Barnes apparent death

Bucky falls to his "death"

After meeting him in his childhood, Bucky became Rogers' best friend. After the Pearl Harbor attack, Bucky joined the U.S. Army and attained the title of Sgt. Barnes.

The day before shipping out to England, Bucky saved his friend Steve from being beat up by a bully by punching him in the jaw and kicking him in the backside as he ran. Bucky and Steve then went to the Modern Marvels Pavilion on a double date Bucky had arranged, but Steve was more interested in attempting to enlist for the fifth time. Despite Bucky's protests, Steve still went through with it, but they parted on good terms before he did. Bucky and his regiment, the 107th, then shipped to England the next day.

A year later, Bucky and his regiment consisting of 200 men went up against a Nazi science division named HYDRA lead by Johann Schmidt at the orders of the SSR but 150 of the men were either killed or captured while 50 barely escaped. Bucky and the future Howling Commandos were among those captured. Bucky was taken to a prison camp in Austria where he was forced to work to build components for a super plane called the Valkyrie, but the enforced labour eventually became too much when he contracted pneumonia, and despite the efforts of his fellow prisoners to keep the HYDRA officers off his back, he was taken to an isolation ward for experimentation. But a little less than month later, Steve (who had become Captain America) infiltrated the base, freed the prisoners, and located Bucky strapped down to an examination table, suffering from whatever it was they had been doing to him. Steve freed Bucky and the two friends made their escape from the factory that was now self destructing. During the escape, Bucky and Steve encountered Schmidt and Zola but were able to evade them and flee the facility before it blew and then walked all the way back to the SSR base in Italy located more than 30 miles away.

After Steve's impressive job saving the prisoners, he was officially promoted to Captain and allowed to put together a special team. Bucky was of course completely on board with joining and following "that little guy from Brooklyn who was too dumb not to run away from a fight." Over the course of several months, Captain America and his team, now known as the Howling Commandos, went on special missions taking down HYDRA facilities and forces. On one of these missions, Bucky, Captain America, and Gabe Jones zip-lined onto the top of a HYDRA train carrying one of HYDRA's top scientists, Arnim Zola. They ran into trouble inside the train and a gun fight broke out, Steve temporarily went down, and Bucky took up his shield and saved him from enemy fire. But Bucky didn't have the upper body strength to hold on to the shield when hit with Hydra's powerful advanced weapons and the blast pushed him out of the blown open side of the train. Steve was unable to save him, and he fell hundreds of feet into an icy ravine below.

In the episode "Seeds", he was mentioned by Skye when she reads "The Wall of Valor" memorial wall at the S.H.I.E.L.D. Science and Technology Academy.

Most of the intelligence community doesn't believe he exists. The ones that do call him the Winter Soldier. He's a ghost, you'll never find him...
―Natasha describing the Winter Soldier to Steve Rogers
Old-friends Bucky-Cap

Film reel of Bucky at the Smithsonian.

Steve Rogers' best friend, Bucky Barnes, was a member of the Howling Commandos and a former member of the 107th Infantry Unit. He had been captured during the Italy campaign by Red Skull's HYDRA forces and experimented on by the Swiss HYDRA scientist Arnim Zola, with Rogers, re-branded as Captain America due to Project Rebirth, rescuing him from the facility. He joined the Howling Commandos in gratitude, specifying he was joining for Rogers, not for Captain America. On one mission to capture Zola, however, Barnes was thought to have died from falling down a crevice while pinned by HYDRA soldiers. However, thanks to the experimentation done unto him earlier, he survived and was recovered by Zola (who had presumably just been released by the SSR in exchange for information about HYDRA) and some Soviet agents, with his arm forcibly removed through surgical operation and replaced with a bionic arm, and presumably undergoing brainwashing to remove any memories of his former identity. However, he resurfaces decades later as the Winter Soldier, a brainwashed, mega-enhanced Super-Soldier doing dirty work for a mysterious organization. By the time of the end of the Cold War, he was kept so classified that most of the intelligence community had doubts that he even existed, and gained the codename "The Winter Soldier", acting as an assassin for the USSR and presumably HYDRA. He once had an encounter with then-KGB agent Nastasha Romanoff while she was protecting a nuclear engineer, where he managed to shoot out their protection vehicle's tires and also kill the engineer by shooting straight through her gut. His MO was using Soviet rounds that were from antiquated weapons and thus "untraceable". By the time of the 21st century, the hardened Winter Soldier has no memories of his former identity and that suits him just fine — he is simply a killing machine.

Winter Soldier TWS-2

The Winter Soldier catches Cap's Shield.

The Winter Soldier is first seen in the film leading a herd of fake police to chase after Nick Fury. Eventually, the Winter Soldier shoots a bomb with a magnet that attaches itself to Fury's vehicle, which explodes and flips the car over. The Winter Soldier walks over to Fury, but he finds a hole in the ground where Fury should have been. Fury then limps over to Steve Rogers' apartment to attempt to tell him that SHIELD has been compromised.

However, the Winter Soldier manages to find where Fury is hiding and shoots Fury through the wall, three times, seemingly killing him. Steve chases after the Winter Soldier and attempts to throw his shield at him, but is shocked when the Winter Soldier catches it, and throws the shield back at Steve before disappearing.

Later, Natasha reveals to Steve that the Winter Soldier has been responsible for many assassinations for 50 years. After Steve and Natasha escaped Hydra once again, Rumlow requested the Winter Soldier's help. ("Call in the asset")

Alexander Pierce, the official head of the reorganized HYDRA terrorist group operating within SHIELD, finds the Winter Soldier in his apartment, and tells him to assassinate Captain America and Black Widow, wanting their confirmed deaths in ten hours. However, Pierce's house-keeper stumbles upon their meeting and sees the Winter Soldier, resulting in Pierce shooting her with the Winter Soldier staring unfazed.

Who the hell is Bucky?

The Winter Soldier vs Captain America.

After realizing that Alexander Pierce is a follower for HYDRA and is intending to use Fury's insight project to kill anyone who could potentially oppose Hydra, Steve, Natasha, and Sam Wilson attempt to drive to the Triskelton, but are confronted by the Winter Soldier and his men. The Winter Soldier successfully manages to kill Jasper Sitwell by throwing him into the path of a truck. The heroes are split up, and the Winter Soldier sends his men to kill Steve Rogers while he goes after Natasha. A battle ensues, with Steve and Sam fighting the other assassins while the Winter Soldier fights Natasha. Eventually, the Winter Soldier is about to shoot Natasha, only to be charged at by Steve. The Winter Soldier quickly stops him by punching his shield. Steve fights the Winter Soldier, but the latter is able to match him move for move. Steve eventually removes the Winter Solder's mask, and much to his horror, Steve recognizes the Winter Soldier as Bucky Barnes, his friend from the past and whom he thought to have died. Steve says Bucky's name, but the Winter Soldier responds, "Who the hell is Bucky?", before disappearing.

Winter Solder being operated on

The Winter Soldier undergoing repairs.

The Winter Soldier returns to HYDRA's lair to get his mechanical arm fixed up after being damaged during the battle. While his arm is being fixed, he has brief flashbacks to his old life, from the fall he took to the moment he was recovered by Zola and the HYDRA agents, his left arm being amputated and replaced with the metal arm, and finally being placed in suspended animation. The Winter Soldier cracks and attacks the person fixing his arm, sending him flying across the room, causing the other people in the room to point their guns at him. Alexander Pierce is called and comes. As he walks in, he tells everyone to lower their guns and asks the Winter Soldier for a mission report. Bucky, however, merely stares out into space his mind on other things. Pierce, annoyed slaps him, which prompts the Winter Soldier to ask who Steve was. Pierce tells him that he met Steve earlier this week on another mission. Bucky then remembers the moment before he fell off the train during WWII, how Steve had reached for his hand. Bucky then claims to have known Steve. Pierce tries to appease him by praising the Winter Soldier's work and asking him to come back to do it again. Bucky, however, insists that he knew Steve. Pierce tells the scientists to prep the Winter Soldier to continue his mission, however one of the scientists comment that he's been too long out of cryophase. So, Pierce orders the agents erased Bucky's memory again to start over and reset the Winter Soldier to his original killing machine mindset. Pierce walks out of the room with Bucky wailing in pain from being brainwashed.

Wintersoldier-CATWS88

The Winter Soldier on board the 3rd Helicarrier.

Later, Steve, Falcon, Natasha, Maria Hill, and Fury, who survived his injuries, attempt to stop Alexander Pierce's plot. While Steve and Falcon put overriding chips into two of the Helicarriers, the Winter Soldier is seen attacking the only people that were going to support Captain America. He then hijacks a Quinjet and heads on up.

When Cap and Falcon arrive on the third Helicarrier, the Winter Soldier suddenly appears out of nowhere and bowls over Captain America, seemingly making him fall off the Helicarrier. Winter Soldier then attacks Falcon to keep him from rescuing Steve, by ripping off one of his wings and throwing him off of the helicarrier. Winter Soldier had gotten close enough to the edge to notice that Captain America indeed had not fallen off the Helicarrier, and proceeds to head to the control panel to confront Steve. Steve attempts to talk with the Winter Soldier, telling him that a lot of people are going to die. After receiving a blank stare from his friend, Steve pleads with Bucky to not make them fight each other. However, the Winter Soldier doesn't move, leaving Steve with no choice but to attack the Winter Soldier with his shield.

A brutal fight breaks out between the two, with the Cap multitasking and attempting to put in the third and last chip. During the fight, the Winter Soldier gets a hold of the chip. Steve puts the Winter Soldier in an arm lock demanding he let go of the chip. Bucky however holds on to it, prompting Steve to dislocate his elbow. Steve then holds Bucky in a Rear-Naked-Choke. Winter Soldier then passes out and releases the chip. Steve rushes to place the chip into the Helicarrier's system, but the Winter Soldier recovers and shoots at him, hitting him twice. However, Steve still succeeds in placing the chip. Hill tells Cap to get out, but Steve tells her to shoot down the Helicarriers, making them open fire upon each other.

Capvswintersoldierhelicarrier

The Winter Soldier and Captain America battling on the third Helicarrier.

As the third Helicarrier begins to crumble, Steve heard a cry of pain and saw that the Winter Soldier was pinned down by a rail. The wounded Steve then lifts the rail enough for the Winter Soldier to crawl out. As soon as the Winter Soldier was free, he responds by mercilessly attacking Steve again. Steve again attempts to revive Bucky's memories, telling him his name, and that they were childhood friends, but the Winter Soldier rebuffs everything and yells at him to shut up. Cap, refusing to fight his friend, tells him so and drops his shield into the river below. Winter Soldier simply responds by tackling Steve saying he is nothing but a mission. Bucky repeatedly kept pounding at Steve with his metal arm. When he paused for a breath Steve tells him to finish it, because no matter what, Steve will be "with him until the end of the line" (something that Bucky had told him years ago). Hearing those words, the Winter Soldier looks at Steve and hesitates. The Helicarrier crashes, throwing Steve out and sending him into the water below. The Winter Soldier instinctively grabs onto one of the metal supports and watches his friend falling for a moment. Bucky then lets go and falls after his friend. He pulls Steve out of water and to the shore. He makes sure Steve is breathing before limping away, without a word.

Bucky at the Smithsonian.

A couple weeks later, Bucky, is shown to be visiting the Smithsonian. He visits the Captain America exhibit, where he reads a display of himself. Bucky stares at it, desperate to remember the old life Steve spoke of.

Bucky appears in the custody of Steve at an unknown base; his capture was not informed to Tony Stark due to Steve's concern over the former's actions in recent events. Together with Sam Wilson, Steve seeks to undo Bucky's brainwashing with the help of Scott Lang.

Freed from HYDRA's control, Bucky went on the run from the government. After a bombing at the Vienna International Centre in Austria, it was believed the Bucky was the culprit and the murder of Black Panther's father, T'Chaka. Bucky decides to go back under the ice so that Black Panther and his sister Shuri can fix the brainwashing from Bucky's brain.

Bucky appears in the post-credit scene in Wakanda, two years after T'Challa agreed to help him. Bucky's Winter Soldier persona has been wiped by Shuri and T'Challa and Bucky receives a new arm from Shuri, in preparation for the upcoming battle against Thanos.

Bucky is a victim of the snap

Two years after civil war, Bucky is reunited with Steve in Wakanda after the HYDRA brainwashing is removed. Bucky later assists, Black Panther, Captain America, Black Widow and others at the battle of Wakanda, whilst telling Rocket Raccoon that his arm and gun are not for sale. However, Thanos takes the upper hand against the Avengers and performs the snap. Bucky is one of 50% of the universe to disintegrate from the snap as Captain America watches in horror.

Bucky is resurrected after Professor Hulk's snap and helps the Avengers defeat Thanos and his army once and for all. He later attends Tony Stark's funeral after he sacrifices himself to defeat Thanos. Bucky is amongst those who see Captain America return the Infinity Stones and says one final goodbye to Steve, knowing he will spend his time back in the 40's to live his life with Peggy Carter. Bucky watches from afar as an elderly Steve Rogers gives Sam Wilson his shield.

Bucky attends therapy.

In the first episode, Bucky is struggling with memories as the Winter Soldier, so he is having therapy to help get those memories out of his mind. It is also revealed that he has been trying to make amends with those who he caused trauma or helped to rise to power during his time as the Winter Solider. He states to a woman that is still abusing of the power he helped her obtain that he is no longer the assassin everyone knew him as before, but now just James "Bucky" Barnes, the best friend to Steve Rogers, and that taking her from her position of power is part of his effort to make amends.

Bucky and Sam in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.

Bucky now spends time with an elderly man called Yori who had lost his son years ago, as he was murdered while traveling abroad. The man sets Bucky on a date with a woman, but Bucky struggles with feelings of guilt as it is revealed that he is the one who killed Yori's son when he was still the Winter Soldier. Because of this, he leaves the date when the woman starts to mention Yori's son, despite her complimenting him for being nice to Yori. Bucky isn't happy to learn Sam handed Steve's shield to the government and John Walker becomes the new Captain America. Bucky expresses his disappointment to Sam when he says he feels if Steve was wrong about Sam, then he was wrong about Bucky finding the good in himself. Bucky and Sam start to bond and become allies when Bucky meets Sam's sister Sarah and starts to flirt with her, much to Sam's dismay.

After John Walker kills an innocent man and is stripped of his Captain America title, Bucky and Sam confront him as he is hiding out. They fight Walker for the shield, which results in Walker's arm being broken and the shield back in Wilson's possession. A short time later, in the final episode, Bucky watches as Sam officially takes on the mantle as Captain America and Sam's speech encourages Bucky to tell Yori the truth about his son's death. Bucky nervously confesses that Yori's son was murdered by the Winter Soldier, confessing he and the assassin are one in the same, but Bucky is no longer that man he used to be, and had no choice in the matter. Bucky then leaves New York City and travels to Louisiana to spend time with Sam, Sarah and their family, allowing Bucky to finally live in peace.

Season 1

In the first episode, just like Captain America: The First Avenger, he was captured during the Italy campaign by Red Skull's HYDRA forces before the Howling Commandos were rescued by Captain Carter. They would head to the alps in Austria where they received intel about Red Skull on the train. As the Commandos zipline their way down to the train, Bucky slips and nearly fell before he was quickly saved by Carter.

In the fifth episode, Bucky is one of the survivors of the zombie outbreak. He helps Spider-Man, Wasp, Happy Hogan, and others defeat the zombies, where he ends up having to kill a zombified version of Captain America.

Season 2

In spite of the Cold War when the Earth is attacked by Peter Quill, the Soviet Union dispatched the Winter Soldier to aid S.H.I.E.L.D. He joined with Goliath, Black Panther, Mar-Vell, and Ant-Man to form a team known as the Avengers. By Karpov's command, he was assigned to kill the young Peter Quill, but his comm was intercepted by Howard Stark, telling him to stand down, not before he mentioned his old friend Steve. Following Ego's defeat, he left the Avengers and goes AWOL from the Soviet Union in search of his identity.

What If - 2x05 - Captain Carter Fought the HYDRA Stomper - Old Man Bucky

Bucky at 97 years old, in season 2

The Bucky from Captain Carter's universe returns in "What if... Captain Carter Fought The Hydra Stomper?", now as an old man following the war with HYDRA. As the secretary of the state, he has been targeted by a Red Room assassin, and it is none other than his best friend Steve Rogers. It is revealed that Rogers and Barnes formed S.H.I.E.L.D. in 1953, after Peggy Carter was transported to the future, and they continued to fight HYDRA. It is later revealed that Bucky went on to marry an unnamed woman and had children.

In "What if... The Avengers Assembled in 1602?", another Bucky from an alternate 2018 is pulled into the year 1602, with fellow Avengers and friends. Their memories have been wiped due to Steve Rogers accidentally hitting the time stone when he was fighting Thanos. Bucky is part of Rogers Hood's merry men, along with Scott Lang.

Season 3

Another variant of Bucky appears in "What If...The Hulk Fought the Mech Avengers?" where he teams with Cap, Monica, and the others to stop the new gamma monster known as the Apex.

Another variant of Bucky as the Winter Soldier appears in "What If...The Red Guardian Stopped the Winter Soldier?" He was assigned to assassinate both Howard and Maria Stark, and steal the Super Soldier serum supply. But his mission was compromised by the Red Guardian.

While Bucky doesn't actually appear in the special, sometime around December 2025, he is somewhat attacked by Nebula, who manages to take his vibranium arm and gift it to Rocket Raccoon as a Christmas present.

Bucky Barnes appears via archival footage and is mentioned several times throughout the first season. During the time of the Sakovia accords, Bucky is often mentioned to be on the run from the government with Steve Rogers and his team who haven't signed the accords, because they're against them. Harry Osborn mentions that Bucky is the reason Steve is wanted by the government, but agrees with their team because he seems to support that Steve broke a few laws to stick by Bucky's side.

Bucky makes a brief cameo in the film, where he comforts Sam Wilson over Falcon's medical state after a near-fatal battle. Bucky hugs and supports Sam as he wishes he had taken the serum and they discuss Steve's desire to have made Sam the new Captain America. Bucky tells Sam that Steve didn't choose him to succeed him because of the serum, but because he has a good heart. Bucky then leaves as Sam continues to watch the doctors mend to Torres' condition, as Bucky has been made congress in government.

In 2027, a couple of months after meeting with Sam Wilson, Bucky has officially become a member of congress and is in attendance at Valentina Allegra de Fontaine's gala, where he is interviewed by the press. The gala shows items that were previously used in the battle of New York and Bucky speaks to Melissa Gold, Val's assistant in hopes to get her approval and to work with her, although she denies his duties as she is loyal to Val. Regardless, Bucky gives Mel his business card in case she needs his help.

Thunderbolts* - Bucky

Bucky in Utah.

Later in his apartment, Bucky is contacted by Mel when she learns that Yelena Belova, John Walker and Eva Starr are planning on bringing Val in for tricking them all into killing each other. Bucky locates the three along with Yelena's father Alexi Shostakov, and learns they are in Utah, Arizona. On their way from the lab, where they have met Bob Reynolds, the four are suddenly shot at by guards and Bucky follows close behind, destroying the armoured truck. John immediately recongizes Bucky, who shoots at Alexi's limo.

Thinking that Yelena, John, Alexi and Eva are dangerous for Valentina, Bucky ties them up and keeps them in a building off the highway and Yelena explains that Bob is someone who has been experimented on by Val, who has created the Sentry program to create the worlds best superhero. When Bucky doesn't believe the team, he gets a call from Mel who says that Val has gotten out of control and needs to be stopped. Bucky tries to encourage Alexi, Yelena, John and Eva to join him in New York and be the heroes he needs them to be. However, they deny their abilities to do so as they all have done bad things in their pasts and don't think either of them can be heroes. However, Bucky manages to make them all change their minds and they steal an armoured truck and make their way back to New York.

Thunderbolts* - Red Guardian, Ghost, Bucky, Yelena and U.S. Agent

Bucky and the Thunderbolts arrive at the Watchtower.

During the drive to New York, Bucky is asked by Alexi which Super Soldier Serum he received and says it was the one by HYDRA, which Alexi comments is fancy. When they arrive at the renovated Avengers Tower, everyone fights the agents outside until Val invites them in. When they all reach the top of the tower, Val mentions that she brought the tower off of Tony Stark and it is renamed the Watchtower. The team are determined to bring Val in and reveal her dark intensions and she insults Bucky for not even lasting half a term as a congressman, as well as also insulting Yelena and John. Val then reveals that Bob is with her at the Watchtower and introduces him as Sentry. Val orders Sentry to fight the Thunderbolts although he tries to convince her that he won't hurt them as they are their friends, but Val is still able to get him to attack everybody. Bucky and the others fight Sentry but he appears too strong for them, even Bucky, and throws them all against a wall before they are all defeated, Having become concerned, the team leave the building and decide to go their seperate ways as they are unable to work together and fight Sentry.

However, the citizens of New York suddenly start running as Bob's Void persona has taken over his mind since his trauma has become too much for him. Bucky and the rest of the Thunderbolts try to rescue as many people as they can, but a lot of them are turned into shadows by the Void and it surrounds the majority of the city. Yelena decides to enter the Void to try and help Bob, despite her father's best efforts to stop her. When Yelena becomes trapped in the void, she and Bob are held hostage by it before Bucky, Eva and Alexi also enter and help them get free. The team tries to find their way out of the Void but they then find themselves in a laboratory where Bob was tested for his addiction and mental health. Bob tries to get the void to let his friends go but it taunts him instead, which leads to a fight between the void and Bob. Bob brutally fights the darkness and Bucky, John, Eva, Yelena and Alexi help him, saying he is not alone and never was. The encouragement from his new friends allows Bob to defeat the darkness inside him and restores New York and it's citizens back to normal and lightness.

Thunderbolts* - Bucky, Red Guardian, John Walker, Ghost

When everything is back to normal, the Thunderbolts, now including Bob, decide to confront Valentina once and for all, who introduces them to the press. Val reveals she has been spending time building a new team of heroes and reveals the team's new name as the New Avengers. Fourteen months later, the New Avengers have officially made the Watchtower their headquarters. They discuss having the same team name as the Avengers and learn that Sam Wilson has issued copyright claims to the Thunderbolts also being called the Avengers. Bucky reveals he has been in contact with Sam about it and that Sam is not happy, which has caused a rift in their friendship. Just as the team are discussing outta space, they receive intel on something entering the earth's atmosphere, which is revealed to be a spaceship that belongs to the Fantastic Four.
