So, I'm slowly getting up to speed on comics. It's a lot
. And can't help *speculating*
to pass the time between films and fig releases (sounds like BP will be incredible)
So I didn't know until yesterday:
Well, OK. I know the films don't follow the comics. But. *Speculating* so, OK, in WS when Bucky is trying to knife Cap at the end you can see the plates in his arm tighten up, which IMO is vaguely IM-like, so maybe Tony comes around in IW and gives Bucky a new arm.
Or now - maybe - this W'Kabi gets killed and Bucky takes his arm - tho arm seems to function as a real arm, which means surgery, so you can't just pop it off and on, and this arm also sounds IM-like...but re the original comic anyway the Wakandas have the technology to repair Bucky...
But Ulysses Claw needs an arm too
, so maybe he kills W'Kabi in the film and takes W'Kabi's arm, and maybe a new arm gets slapped on Bucky by way of equalling the playing field in BP and/or IW. Or Claw wants an arm AND Bucky because somehow he's gotten the trigger words and wants to use Bucky as a weapon. Or Claw doesn't get/want a new arm but gives Bucky an arm but Bucky remembers and strangles Claw etc.
ANYWAY
. I'm still getting up to speed on all the comic book backstories, and think the Russos know better than to duplicate abilities on film. But thought I'd mention W'Kabi coz re BP there's a lot of interest in the Dora Milaje and we've even had our first look at one of them? but hadn't realized that T'Challa had a loyal friend with a metal/bionic arm (does anyone have bionic LEGS, BTW??) Not that W'Kabi (Daniel Kaluuya in the upcoming film) will even keep a bionic arm in the movie
. Or maybe being "bionic" it's covered with skin, so it looks normal. But IMO the Winter Soldier wouldn't look like himself now without the gleaming metal. But learning all this IMO added more interesting character possibilities/dynamics.

Interesting theory though
