I recently reviewed Captain America and Bucky #620 for CBR and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "This first issue seems like the beginning of a 'Bucky: Year One' mini-series, providing more depth into who he was before he became the sidekick of Captain America. Beginning in 1935 after the death of his mother, we see as he struggles to keep out of trouble to please his father, how he’s pretty much adopted by the army following his father’s death, and how he’s trained and chosen to be the partner of Captain America. Ed Brubaker and Marc Andreyko fill in the gaps in Bucky’s known origin, giving it some much needed flavor and an emotional connection between Barnes and the readers."
