I’m a sucker for Marvel World War II material and I love Chris Samnee’s work so picking up Captain America & Bucky: The Life Story Of Bucky Barnes was a given. Think you know the story of Cap and Bucky’s origins? Well, think again. The secret story of the...

Every week Comic Book Daily asks the question and the crew (and special guests) give their answers; we’ll be doing this for 52 weeks. Tip of the hat goes to the gang at Scans Daily for the inspiration and Ed Campbell for this week’s question. Since DC is going to "re-launch" (not reboot) the entire DC Universe, what is your ideal creative team for which book in the DC relaunch?
