Remender launches a Bitter March for the Winter Soldier
Reading time: 2 minutes
Unfortunately, the former Winter Soldier series has recently come to an end. This seems like a poor choice, due to the upcoming movie and the fact that numerous trades could have came out before the movie was even launched. However, Marvel has recently announced a new mini-series with the character. This seems like it is geared towards readers who are direct fans of the film coming out that are looking for an entry into the Marvel Universe. This can be slightly difficult to watch at times, simply because the movie audience has not translated into comics thus far. Thankfully, there is a stellar creative team on the series featuring Rick Remender on writing duties, and Roland Boschi tackling some pencils over on the series. The mini is formally titled Winter Soldier: The Bitter March. Writer Rick Remender has stated that he is going to use this title to introduce some new plot threads into his main Captain America series. The two books are going to work in a sort of tandem, since they both are written by the same person. Here is the official solicitation text,
