Bucky as white wolf


Whether Falcon and Winter Soldier teasing Sergeant Barne's return to a life of villainy. The second episode of the Falcon and the Winter Soldier gave us a tease of Bucky's recovery time in Wakanda, where he became "White Wolf''.

Little time in Wakanda and you come out as white panther                                                                              - Falcon (aka) Cap.


 Interestingly enough the white wolf character in the comics is one of black panther's biggest villains. So, why would MCU choose to give Bucky that name. This blogpost will breakdown everything about white wolf from the comics and how the MCU can adapt that with Bucky's current role. 

The first episode of  Falcon and Winter Soldier really gave a grip on how hard Bucky's life has been so far. As he has been in a non-stop fight for over eighty years. And that sort of thing can weigh on a person. There is still so much about his winter soldiers' past that we don't know. We have a basic glimpse, he was put on ice and just unfrozen whenever there was someone to fight or kill and then he was put back in the freezer. It took an immense struggle for Steve or Bucky to begin to snap out of it. Of course, Steve wasn't the only factor. But sometimes you just need cold hard science to break brain manipulations. Also Steve thought Bucky should be kept safe somewhere else because he was the world's biggest assassin for like 80 years. That's what led Bucky to Wakanda where there are advanced technological marvels. Wakanda was the best chance to break the immense control Bucky was under, as well as having a leader who understood that Bucky needed help( King T'Challa). Also, Bucky is ready to freeze again until Wakanda can figure out a solution. How long does it take Shuri to find an answer?  As we know Shuri could possibly find a solution, in the post-credits scene for Black Panther we see Bucky recuperating in a Wakandian hut.

Fans who know white wolf's comic origins probably got excited about this. The fact that in the second episode of Falcon and Winter soldier, they bring up the white wolf satire again. It could mean a lot of fascinating things for Bucky's future in the MCU.

Who is the white wolf?

Bucky was ever the white wolf in the comics? No, he wasn't, which makes the MCU give Bucky the moniker. Especially white wolf in the comics. But I think it will all make sense once you hear white wolf's comic story and why it matters for Bucky. Long ago, there was a plane crash near the Wakandan border, where the only survivor was a Caucasian child. Wakanda's whole thing for a while was all about isolation and secrecy. Though King T'Chaka, T'challa's father took pity on the orphan child and took him in. His name was Hunter and T'Chaka raised him as a son for a bit. Everything was going great until T'Challa was born. T'Challa's birth caused immediate jealousy from Hunter. Since, it meant he was no longer in line for the throne. This had an interesting effect on Hunter. Although he was furious, he decided to train his body and mind in order to prove he could be the perfect Wakandian leader. Eventually becoming a fierce warrior and the head of Wakanda's secret police force. But when T'Challa became king the animosity only continued to grow when the black panther disbanded the secret police too violent. This led Hunter and his group to exile Wakanda and become mercenaries. Over years the two assorted brothers would cross paths and fight. Hunter's ways were extreme and he disagreed with T'Challa's way of ruling. But Hunter was always loyal to Wakanda and would protect it from outside threats when the situation demanded. But now we got to know that Hunter's back story has nothing to do with present Bucky's line of action but something common with Killmonger that they couldn't reintroduce.

Bucky as white wolf

It's not likely that MCU were gonna turn Bucky into a villain again. Remember Sebastian Stan signed that standard nine picture contract, so he still has a lot of movies left as Bucky Barnes. It seems that MCU is setting up a solid supporting role in black panther 2. Think about it, as I said about Wakanda's secret police and white wolf remaining super loyal to Wakanda. Right now Bucky is looking for a life. He is trying to make amends for his past decisions and escape the winter soldier shadow. Since he is not becoming captain america the door is open for him to take on a new mantle and that's where white wolf can come in. Maybe after the events of the falcon and the winter soldier TV show, not only will Sam upgrade to captain america but Bucky will realize that he wants to help Wakanda rather the United States. And building his new identity in Wakanda himself. That means he could still show up in Black panther 2 and be a vital role in keeping the peace after T'Challa's death.

Bro MCU can be strange, giving Bucky many names.

Never dare to open these 7 doors!!!

Sheri Hooley on Unsplash Doors are meant to be opened. Well! not these doors. They are thought to contain anything from treasures to mummified remains and ancient curses. Some of the most visited places in the world have secret rooms and chambers sealed off by mysterious doorways. People won't talk about what is inside them. And once sealed they have remained closed but what exactly they are protecting us from. In Kerala, India, there is a grand structure known as Padmanabhaswamy temple. It was created in the 6th century and built upon until the 16 century by the kings of the Travancore royal family. The most valuable part of this ornate building is its 6 sealed underground vaults. But one of them remains unknown to this day. The vault sits behind ornately designed solid doors. Five of these doors were able to be pried open and inside they found 22 billion dollars worth of treasure including jewellery and solid gold idols. Vault B also called Bharata Conchal era is the only vault

IS SOUTH INDIAN WOMEN ARE HAPPIER THAN NORTH INDIAN WOMEN?

Srimathi Jayaprakash on Unsplash                                                                               If you were to ask an Indian women, to prefer between living in North India or South India, imagine what would her answer be? Most women would prefer to live in South India. And it shouldn't come as a surprise. In South India, women marry late, live longer and are more educated. The gender gap in education is 26% of the north and while for the south it is only 9%. Other than economic and social benefits, safety is another factor that could explain the woman's preference. Compared to North India there could be less crime against women in the South. It could be possible even in the states like Kerala, have high crime rates against women( According to data). But it is not clear why the crime rate is higher in Kerala. We are well aware that the family of a sexual assault victim doesn't lodge a complaint in India. Around 99% of the sexual assault cases go unreported. D

How china became so powerful

the world's factory   Back in old days, this part of the world used to be the economic super power of the planet. The dynasties discovered everything from compass, from printing to making paper, gunpowder. They would make huge expeditions around the globe. This is China, the middle kingdom, right next to India. Around the 1800's that's where it started changing. In Europe and the US, a major revolution started taking place(science, machines, weapons, industries). With the new power these countries started to expand to take over large parts of land. China remained a great civilisation, as the west started showing up, knocking on China’s door with their big guns. China couldn’t compete with the large fire power. So China compromised them with their lands(HONG KONG). The industrial revolution didn’t start in the same way as it did in the west. And in the middle of 1800, China stood in its massive decline. The situation got even worse when it’s neighbour Japan invaded. China’s
