The race relations exploration with Sam and Isaiah is fantastic, but I like Bucky's escape from the past more. He starts the show unable to fully confront his past, his attempts being misguided and half-hearted but in the end he is able to break free, to rip off the band-aid & leave the past behind.

Bucky is just overall more compelling as he’s like Steve in that he’s a man out of time but with even more baggage. Plus I feel the more we learn about Bucky we indirectly learn more about Steve as they were basically brothers to each other.

I love his struggles more, he has a personal struggle when it comes filling Cap's shoes and an external struggle when it comes to taking the colors of a nation who was anything but kind to people who look like him, fantastic character work + a brilliant performance too.

ReplyMuch as I loved seeing bucky adjust to civilian life as man outta time w/ a chip on his shoulder, Sam Wilson's story is very compelling. Particularly w/ the Isiah Bradley element of the story and having classic marvel troubles to overcome.

ReplySam's plight feels more visceral. I'm not a black man but I'm friends with one, one day we were walking down the street and arguing about something stupid regarding a TV show, and cops pull out and they were a lot more hostile towards him than me even thought we both were making noise.

ReplyI love Sam. I love that he always tries to deescalate a tense situation, I love that he is full of empathy, even for people others write off as terrorists, I love that he is not a glory hog, he sees the shield as a colossal responsibility and not a way to get acclamation and fame.

ReplyNothing against Bucky, but Sam's struggles were more real and relatable.

ReplyBucky didn't have a character in the movies, but I won't watch this show because Disney is evil, racist, communist, etc.

ReplyI feel like you have to say Sam since he had more of an arc whereas Bucky kind of got shafted again. They’ve gotten closer with Bucky, but they aren’t quite there yet on having a take on him.
