From Cap on Ice to Leader of the Pack: Winter Soldier Interlude

“Put him back on ice,” said evil Hydra scientist Arnim Zola. The “him” Zola was referring to was Bucky Barnes in the 2014 Marvel movie Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

In addition to their World War II capers, Captain America and Bucky Barnes have something else in common: they have both been frozen. Cap was frozen after the plane crash that ended his first movie in 2011, and then thawed out and returned to active duty in The Avengers (2012). Bucky Barnes (aka the Winter Soldier in Ed Brubaker’s classic comic book run and in the movie by the same name) has been frozen and thawed many times over the years. This freezing and then thawing thing is a problem for human cells. In order for Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes to survive the deep freeze, they’d need to share something in common with the wood frog, Rana sylvatica.
