Steve Epting: Last News

Haley Bosselman editorWith the premiere of “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” on Disney Plus Friday, Winter Soldier co-creator Ed Brubaker admitted in a newsletter to his uneasiness over his compensation from Marvel Studios.“Everyone at Marvel Studios that I’ve ever met (all the way up to Kevin Feige) have been nothing but kind to me… but at the same time, for the most part all Steve Epting and I have gotten for creating the Winter Soldier and his storyline is a ‘thanks’ here or there, and over the years that’s become harder and harder to live with,” he explained in his newsletter.Brubaker and Epting’s Winter Soldier first debuted in the “Captain America #1″ comic in 2004.

the Winter Soldier — now a mainstay of Marvel’s multi-billion dollar cinematic universe — might never have existed.It all goes back to the well-worn trope in superhero fiction that the dead never stay dead for long. They always get resurrected by a magical regeneration matrix or some parallel universe mumbo jumbo.Except, that is, for Bucky Barnes — Captain America’s young partner who was introduced in 1941.
