Winter Soldier Villain Spec

A lot of the books tied in with the new Captain America Winter Soldier movie have priced themselves out of most speculators price range. However Bleeding Cool ran an interesting story tonight.

Pressed for something newsy about that third picture, McFeely offered up just a hint of the comics they’re looking to draw some elements from. He wouldn’t name names or number numbers, but he might as well have:
All I’m saying is psychotic 1950s Cap.

They go on to say that this quote could be in reference to William Burnside, a crazy guy who assumed the role of Captain America for a while.
Now, his first appearance in Young Men #25, is also probably out of reach for most collectors, but his appearance as the Grand Director in Captain America #231 could be a good spec. Another place to look for Burnside is in the 2005 Captain America series in issues #7, #36,
37,38,39,40. The 7th issue in the series is of course directly after the first appearance of Bucky as the Winter Soldier, and the later issues are still in the story line where Bucky assume the mantle of Cap.
