    Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I was wondering if someone here could help me with this doubt. Bucky received the infinity formula that saved his life, for coincidence this is the same formula that was granted to Mockingbird or it´s just the same Nick Fury received long ago?

    from Mockingbird bio: "Recent exposure to a cross between the super soldier serum and the infinity formula have granted Bobbi powers. Although the full effects of the serum are unknown, she has displayed enhanced healing, super strength, durability and agility."

    @HigorM: Yes the infinity formula was given to Bucky to save his life after the fight with Sin in Fear Itself. Bucky did not gain any powers.

    Well aside from the slowed aging that comes from taking it, but that's not technically a power so yeah.

    @Smart_Dork_Dude: I don't think he even got that from the Infinity formula (Slowed Aging). Here's my theory since he was so close to death I think the infinity formula only saved his life and that's it.But I could be wrong. We well just wait and see if he gets the slow aging.

    Has this been brought up at all since it happened? I think you have to keep using the Infinity Formula for it to work.

    @jonny_anonymous: I dunno. Nick eventually just had slowed aging from taking it for so long. Maybe such a big dose did the same for Bucky? Meh, whatever.

    @thexx: I presume it was just the easiest way they could think of getting Bucky back on his feet for his own ongoing and wasn't really a plot point. BTW I changed my profile pic because i noticed you had the same one LOL

    @jonny_anonymous: Thats what I think too. I saw that you had the same pic. If you want you can go back to it. I'm thinking of using a pic from the Cap movie.

    I believe Nick just needed to take it to prolong his life. Without it, he'll start aging at a normal rate.

    Yea that's what I thought but wasn't Fury Jr born with it in his blood or something?
