Bucky owes his youthful appearance to repeated cryo-freezes orchestrated by the Russians. He possesses no super powers and never received a form of the Super Soldier Serum as many assume, but continues to operate at peak human ability. Winter Soldier also boasts a master knowledge of weapons and firearms.
Bucky Barnes was a second successful attempt at a super soldier, injected with serum similar to Rogers' while he was a prisoner of HYDRA in 1943. The serum enabled him to survive the fall from the HYDRA train in 1945, but was not potent enough to prevent the loss of his left arm.
Abilities: Bucky Barnes received a variation of the super-soldier serum that gave Captain America his abilities. He has enhanced strength, durability, speed, agility, reflexes, and healing. He also has a cybernetic arm, now made of vibranium, which increases his strength even more. Power scale: 4.
The MCU's Natasha Romanoff was never given the Super Soldier serum like her comics counterpart. Black Widow shows why Dreykov made this choice. Despite receiving the Super Soldier serum in the comics, the MCU version of Black Widow was never enhanced beyond peak human capabilities.
Although Bucky has come a long way in his recent MCU appearances, his history as the Winter Soldier disqualifies him from ever becoming Captain America. Throughout the entire Cold War and beyond, the Winter Soldier operated as a Hydra assassin, killing numerous American operatives during that time.
Sam also knows that Captain America (the proper one) is an exception, not the rule. Super soldier serum amplifies the qualities of those who take it, so unless the recipient is an absolute bastion of moral fortitude like St. Steve, the effects can be unpredictable.
This was the real beginning of Bucky Barnes' transformation into Hydra assassin Winter Soldier, as the fall not only resulted in Bucky losing his arm and getting the vibranium replacement on his left side, but also Zola giving him Hydra's version of the Super Soldier Serum.
So if you take Hawkeye aka Clint Barton, S.H.I.E.L.D. assassin and abnormally gifted marksman, it would: Make him at least 2x stronger than Cap, since his base-level strength prior to the Serum was much higher than Rogers' was (if we're talking about MCU Hawkeye — Barton in the comics was stronger t.
Her fighting skills are augmented by a variant of the Super-Soldier serum, which she was given as part of the Black Widow program. Although this treatment doesn't give her superhuman strength like Captain America, Natasha operates at peak human condition.
Who is physically stronger Bucky or Captain America?
In terms of raw strength, Captain America is typically portrayed as being stronger than the Winter Soldier, although the Winter Soldier's combat skills and agility can still make him a formidable opponent.
Usually, Captain America is considered the best fighter in the Marvel Universe, but on this occasion Bucky beat him fair and square, even using Steve's own shield to deliver the final blow. The power levels of Marvel characters vary greatly according to writers' preferences and story needs.
Although vibranium is susceptible to damage, it's depicted as the most durable material in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The fact that Thanos possesses enough power to beak vibranium is a testament to the strength of the Mad Titan, but more importantly, the weapon itself.
Bucky owes his youthful appearance to repeated cryo-freezes orchestrated by the Russians. He possesses no super powers and never received a form of the Super Soldier Serum as many assume, but continues to operate at peak human ability.
Luke Cage. During his time as an inmate, Luke Cage was experimented on to recreate the Super Soldier Serum that gave Captain America his abilities by Doctor Noah Burstein.
Bucky Barnes is getting a new arm in Thunderbolts it appears, and it could help set up Wolverine's Marvel Cinematic Universe debut. Known for his metal arm made from vibranium, Phase 4 delivered a surprise twist related to Winter Soldier's future.
Serum enhances the strength and ability of human. Now bucky was not weaker than John, but we can see the fact that even at his human level John walker had better training than Bucky. He was so good as fighting before even getting the serum. So he was able to fight better than bucky.
In the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, which released before Guardians of the Galaxy 3, Nebula gives Bucky's arm to Rocket as a Christmas gift. Although it's meant as a callback to the Infinity War and GOTG 1 jokes, it created some confusion about how exactly Nebula got the arm.
With all this armstory between them, when fans saw Nebula had a new arm in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, they suspected it might be related to Bucky's stolen/borrowed limb. But James Gunn has confirmed that is not the case. Nebula's arm is not Bucky's; instead, it is its own creation.
In an alternate 1949, Carter was met by Rogers after completing his tasks. They lived a happy life together and were married. Steve still wore his wedding band when he reunited with Sam Wilson in 2023, but Steve chose to keep the details of his life with Peggy to himself rather than sharing them with his old friend.
After he uses the shield to destroy Stark's arc reactor and disable the Iron Man armor. As Rogers leaves with Bucky, Stark calls out that his father, Howard, made the shield for Rogers and that he does not deserve it. Rogers' only response is to leave the shield with Stark.
As Captain America, Sam Wilson has no super-soldier serum or traditional superpowers. Sam is an elite-level athlete and master hand-to-hand combatant trained by Steve Rogers. He can hurl the shield with pinpoint accuracy, although his skill isn't on the same, experienced level of Steve Rogers.
