Captain America and Bucky - The Life Story of Bucky Barnes (Marvel Comics)
Orphan. Troublemaker. Mascot. James "Bucky" Barnes spent his youth
trying to find a place where he could belong - and he finally found it
in a world ripped apart by war. The scrappy mascot of Fort Lehigh, Bucky
could never have known the future that was just around the corner for
him. Destined to become Captain America's sidekick and staunch ally,
Bucky combined the fighting techniques that made him a notorious
schoolyard brawler with intensive black-ops training to become one of
America's greatest heroes of World War II. But behind the propaganda and
tales of wartime feats lies the truth: Some heroes are born great;
others are made great. But a select few must go through hell before they
discover what kind of hero they truly are.
