The Winter Soldier Comics Help!!!

[GremlinZilla89]

I desperately want to start reading the Ed Brubaker run of Captain America but all of my research is for nothing because I can't figure out what to start with. The Omnibus is too expensive so I can't get those.

I have read the Winter Soldier arc. I've read conflicting things saying it's the beginning of the guys run, but it's starts at issue 6?

What are the trade paper backs I can start collecting to read the run in order?

Ed Brubaker started writing with Captain America v5 #1.

v5 lasted until #50, and then the series was renumbered to #600, and Brubaker continued until #619.

Starting #620, the series was renamed to Captain America & Bucky, and became a series of Captain America teamups. Brubaker wrote it until #624, and those five issues were more focused on Bucky than Cap.

Around the same time, Brubaker started writing Captain America v6, and the Winter Soldier spin-off.

I'd read Captain America v5 first. The first few arcs cover the Winter Soldier.

I'd also read through the issues where Steve Rogers was "dead" and Bucky took over for him as Cap. They're awesome.

you can read them online as well for pretty cheap through many different websites. I went through the whole WS storyline again back when they announced the film title, all online.

Download the issues. Plenty of torrents or DC++ hubs. That's the only way to get a lot of this stuff reasonably. Other than that, just follow what BullMcGiveny said and don't forget to read Steve Rogers: Super Soldier after the Death of Cap storyline.
