Captain America: Prisoner of War

Bucky Barnes is the prisoner of a private war. Fighting for good against consummate evil during WWII, he learned the deadly skills of warfare–only to have these tools exploited by the Soviets’ Cold War machine. Memories of his time as a brainwashed assassin haunt him still, never more so than when he dons the star-spangled uniform once worn by Steve Rogers. And just when he thougt he could break free of the chains of his history, he is thrust into a new nightmare: a Russian prison camp housing a handful of his most vicious and revenge-minded Cold War peers. For Bucky, each ponderous minute that ticks by in the gulag brings another new threat to his life. But for his friends–Steve Rogers, Sharon Carter and Black Widow–it is a race against time to undo the wicked conspiracy that has used Bucky’s past as the Winter Soldier to trap him in a life of cruelty worse than any he’s ever experienced.
