The Winter Soldier erased from the Marvel Disney+ logo

The logo feature Wanda, Loki, the Falcon, Black Widow and Shang chi, which makes sense considering those were all released this year. Yet Bucky is completely absent.

It's rather strange that the series started being about Bucky and Sam, and in the final episode Bucky got shoved aside and shown no respect to prop up Blacktain America.

Also rather strange is that Shuri shares the foreground with Shang Chi. Why is she on this poster at all? Also Captain Marvel is on there. Why?? And a someone in a Black Panther suit who doesn't look like T'Challa. Thor is pushed the the back and at the side. No Spider-man, Doctor Strange, Hulk, Ant-man, Hawkeye. Can you spot the pattern?

Who was Bucky? Doesn't matter. Only current stars, please.

"Also rather strange is that Shuri shares the foreground with Shang Chi. Why is she on this poster at all?"

Rumor has it she's going to be heavily featured in the upcoming "Wakanda Forever". That art is just there to sell stuff, you know.

And why are you so concerned about Bucky? He's a drag, nobody much likes him, even if he is hot.

No one likes him since when? Since white male hating lefto-fascists infiltrated Marvel? He is a lot more popular than Blacktain America and Shuri, that is for sure.

Ok, so Shuri is going to feature prominently in Black Panther, so what? Why are Spider-man and Doctor Strange not on there? Why is Captain Marvel on there? She is not even getting her own movie sequel.

You know, in all the discussions I've participated in re the "FatWS" series, I don't believe I've ever seen anyone say that they liked Bucky or identified with him. Sam is the likable, admirable one in this show, and even you don't say you *like* Bucky, it looks like you're just defending him because he's a white man.

Bucky is a drag, even if he's nice to look at, he's done a lot more harm than good and isn't fun to have around.

First 3 lists, Bucky is higher than Sam on all of them. I think you can stop talking now.

By the way, I didn't see Shuri on any of them.

I still haven't seen anyone here say they like Bucky.

I like Bucky (don't really care either way). BAM! Chain thread broken.

Fair enough, but you had to be prompted.

Bucky is very popular in fandom circles on tumblr and Twitter. There's tons of fanfics written about him.

I know a lot of people who watched this show primarily for Bucky. I find Bucky's tragic backstory and his arc of making amends more compelling than Sam's. I wish the show fleshed out Bucky's arc more.

Actually, I can believe that the fan-fiction types like him, a lot of them go for whangst and they like characters who are good-looking and unhappy. And then there's the slashers, he was custom-made for their tastes!

But I left the world of fan fiction a long time ago, so I'll take your word about his popularity there.
