Winter Soldier #19 – Review

By: Jason Latour (Writer), Nic Klein (Artist/Colorist)

The Story: Tesla Tarasova tries to erase her past by using her cosmic ray powers and the Tarasova tesseract as Bucky tries to reason with her.

The Review: This was an ending that we almost didn’t deserve. This sounds a bit harsh, sure, but with this title’s cancellation due to low sales, Jason Latour could have given us as cheap an ending he could have wanted, admitting defeat as James Buchanan Barnes story came to a close for a while. Instead, he gave us something that not only pay respect to the work Ed Brubaker did on him, but also to the whole Winter Soldier series.

Winter Soldier #18 – Review

By: Jason Latour (Writer), Nic Klein (Artist/Colorist)

The Story: Tesla Tarasova tells us her life story and how she views her training, her life mission and the world in general.

The Review: It’s not fair. Really, parts of me are right now enraged after reading this issue. Having finished analyzing the various elements that compose this story, I can only come to a single conclusion: it’s not fair.

Do not misinterpret this, as this statement is only my vision of a harsh truth, a thought on the fact that this title will be over soon, as it has been cancelled. How can a title that has grown to become so amazing be cancelled like this?*
