I frequently talk about Arnie Roth here, Steve Roger's childhood best friend in the comics, and how he was taken and heavily incorporated into MCU Bucky, but with the very important context of his identity as gay and Jewish, which deeply impacts his story and without it that very important narrative loses all its meaning and impact, intentionally left out (along with many other marginalized characters).
I also talk about how his creator J.M. DeMatteis has spoken about how they took Arnie and the total lack of compensation or credit he has received.
Since the MCU is determined to erase Arnie Roth's identity, despite greatly benefiting from their use of his character in MCU Bucky, a great way to fight back against that erasure it is to include his ethnoreligious Jewish identity and his gay identity, both of which are integral to every aspect of his story, in your interpretation of him.
It's also important to learn about Arnie Roth engage with his story in its own right, as well as making it more widely known he's the basis of MCU Bucky.

Very much looking forward to the Robin Lives series that was announced today! Very cool covers by Rick Leonardi and Mike Mignola.

1989's Spider-Man - Fearful Symmetry : Kraven's Last Hunt TPB painted cover by artist Mike Zeck.
Back when the original title ("Fearful Symmetry") of this popular (deservedly so) story arc was still used.
Mike Zeck : "First softcover collection of the six-issue Kraven series."

Steve Roger's childhood best friend in the comics, Arnie Roth was taken and heavily incorporated into MCU Bucky, forming the entire basis of his character and his relationship with Steve.
Unfortunately, the very important context of his identity as gay and Jewish, which deeply impact the parts of his story that the MCU took, have been intentionally left out. Without him being gay and Jewish in canon, those vital parts of his story lose the intention and depth behind them being included by his creator, J.M. DeMatteis, making his character one dimensional.
A great way to counteract the erasure the MCU is engaging in is to include his Jewish identity and his gay identity in your interpretation of MCU Bucky, along with taking the time to learn about Arnie Roth as his own character and the important historic moment he was introduced in.

What Would Have Happened After Jason Todd Lived?
Tumblr media
In 2023 DC Comics released a "fauxsimile" edition of Batman #428, in which Jason Todd as Robin survived the brutal beating from the Joker. Now, DC Comics is exploring the aftermath of Jason's recovery and thirst for revenge. DC Vault: Death in the Family: Robin Lives hails from writer J.M. DeMatteis and artist Rick Leonardi.
DC Vault: Death in the Family: Robin Lives #1 (of 4) goes on sale on July 10, 2024. The main cover is by Leonardi and a variant cover is from Mike Mignola.
