Winter Soldier #1 is the most excited I've been at the end of an issue in a long time. So many questions! Read Full Review

Winter Soldier #1 is a pleasant surprise. It had a well-executed concept that let Kyle Higgins expand upon Bucky Barnes' character. Higgins helped expand the character a little more for me. Though Rod Reis' art style is not my favorite, it works well for this series and fits with the tone of the story. All in all, this was an excellent first issue. It looks to be a pretty solid five-issue miniseries and I am very excited to see what happens next. That final page teaser was also excellent in building hype for the next issue! Read Full Review

Buy this book for solid writing, interesting art, and an intriguing new direction for a beloved character. Read Full Review

The Winter Soldier launches into his latest mission with noble goals and promising challenges. The script is playing it safe here at the start, but a noteworthy helping of passionate art saves this from any danger of falling down into the run of the mill. It's already rewarding, and future issues seem likely to get even stronger. Read Full Review

WINTER SOLDIER #1 sets up an interesting premise for Bucky, but it does so with the least amount of originality. The art feels wildly inconsistent, though it may still be the most redeeming factor of the issue. I'm hoping for something better during round two. Read Full Review

This is an atmospheric and refreshing take on the reformed Russian agent with some serious ambition. Read Full Review

Its good to see the Winter Soldier do his very best to save lives instead of taking them. Read Full Review

The Winter Soldier #1 is a very good start to this new mini-series. Kyle Higgins showed his strong understanding of who Bucky Barnes is. The mission Higgins gives to Bucky has plenty of potential for what it means to the character and general outlook of the Marvel Universe. Having Rod Reis on board will ensure Winter Soldier will also be a very good looking mini-series as well. Read Full Review

Winter Soldier #1 has an interesting premise and is a good start for it. The art isn't bad but doesn't exactly match the tone of the comic. Read Full Review

This is not a bad book, but it is not that great either. Read Full Review

I wanted to love this first issue of Winter Soldier as I am a big fan of Kyle Higgins, but it fell flat for me. I hope things pick up next month, because the art and story just didnt do it for me here. This book is beginning on a short leash for me. Read Full Review

Higgins and Reis back it again! Good story and great art!

Bucky's "henchman witness protection program" is a nice idea. It'd struggle to carry the issue by itself; good thing it's supported by strong character work and a cracking good antagonist introduction. The storytelling skills at work here are already good, but I hope to see even better writing and art in the future.

I didn't expect much in this issue tbh but it's not bad. It's scoring time.
Cover-1/2 Standard
Dialogue-2/2 Nice recap and conversations
Characters-2/2 You get to know winter soldier's personality and villain from end
Story-1/2 It's not bad but it's not that original has a blend of terminator to it
Art-2/2 Has a weird paint feeling to it like a art museum
Buy- Sure if you'll like but you can just give it a read online.

"I'm a big fan"

This was good. Interesting story, good dialogue and that ending... damn.
On the fence about the art though.

We'll see how it goes.

I was really looking forward to this comic, but I must admit that I expected more than this.

I am casually interested in this, but nothing blew me away.
