Well it looks like I was wrong fellow Ledgers. I actually believed that Rogers would stay away from the shield at least until whatever future he saw was averted but it seems like he just does not care about Bucky's life as much as he does donning the flag again. marvel.com/news/story/15547/get_ready_for_captain_america_1_by_ed_brubaker_steve_mcnivenI have to admit, I am actually really disappointed at this news. Upon Rogers' return, he expressed a very passionate desire to stay away from being Captain America mostly only because he thought that if he were Captain America again, Bucky would die. Because that was the future he saw when his soul was bouncing around the time stream. So I guess Marvel plans to just glaze that over because nothing in the article left me with the impression that they intended to deal with that revelation by Rogers. What do you guys think about this?

I can't really say I'm surpised, considering they're aiming to boost appearances of Steve Rogers/classic Cap to help promote his upcoming movie.
That said, I can't really say I like or dislike the idea. I have yet to catch up on Bru's Cap, so I don't know what the current situation is regarding Bucky's status as Cap. That said, from what I have read, I like the idea of Bucky being Cap and Rogers being the head of SHIELD, or whatever it's currently being called lol

Not surprised, either, but still disappointed.

This tendency to align characters to fit the movie versions in light of the movie coming out despite how sense it does or does not make is starting to annoy me.

I agree with Crom. It's about time. I just don't really like any Cap that isn't Steve.

I just hate the idea that they are going to "glaze over " that little tidbit. I mean I can't see any plausible way they can talk their ways out of that without it coming out like garbage.

Bucky better fucking die then because there is no way they can reasonably explain that now.
Oh and Rogers was better as Director of SHIELD.

Dang I'm a little disappointed. I'm new at reading Captain America comics....but i still say Bucky should have took the the shield back up....Steve didn't even want to be Cap America. Now what is Marvel going to do about Bucky have him rot in jail or something lame like having Ursa kill him

This is most likely fueled by the up-coming movie. One thing Marvel doesn't want to sacrifice is some publicity and sales due to a hero film - but, changing plot-lines and traits of a character to fit a short term lens can be a catastrophic mistake in the long term as it alienates and annoys the current fanbase.
If my theory is correct, god can only imagine what the AVENGERS movie will trigger at Marvel Studios...

I love Bucky. If they kill him off I'm going Winter Soldier on their asses.

They could've milked the Winter Soldier thing for a lot longer.

I haven't read anything done with current Captain Americe I was planning to because I like the idea that he didn't like being Captain America and didn't need his shield, Bucky from what I've heard seemed to be great as Captain America (but I did like him better as Winter Soldier).
