Comic characters should be treat with respect

Remember when Marvel Comics killed Captain America, everyone know he will be back. But during his absence someone else filled his shoes. His former sidekick Bucky. He is the new Captain but we all know that only the original person is forever the hero that started it all. Remembers Superman, Batman and even Wonder Woman? Even Flash, whom Barry Allen was dead for about twenty years is back. Everyone prefer the original character. So we know Steve Rogers will take back the shield. So Bucky got demoted? In a sense it seems to be. While the comic which showcase the return of the true Captain is set in July, we shall see how Marvel deals with Bucky. They shouldn't demote Bucky. He isn't some outsider created to fill in shoes. Unlike Wonder Woman, her replacement was created or pulled from a vault of lesser used character and put in her boots. She was tossed away back into the vault when the true Wonder Woman returns. For the case of Batman and Flash, their replacements was Dick and Wally. They were established characters before they start filling shoes. So now they remains as Batman and Flash, meaning there are two Batman and Flash. Marvel better do the right thing, at least Bucky shouldn't fall back into sidekick role.
