Yes. Bucky takes up the shield in Brubakers run (until Steve comes back to life). Someone else carried the shield a lot during Steve Rogers' era as Nomad, and Sam has it for a period of time as well after Rogers lost his powers.I'm not too versed in the comic side of things. When (if) Steve dies in the comics, is there actually a Cap successor that takes the mantle in his place?
There's also a storyline of the "Captain America of the 50s" (when Rogers was an icicle) of a guy who wore the mantle and fought communism along with his "Bucky". I think they made that guy a racist in the comics though.
