reporter: "What about your new teenage sidekick, Cap?"
Red Skull (in Captain America's body): "Sidekick? Captain America needs NO sidekick!"
other reporter: "Then that whole bit with the youngster in a Bucky Barnes costume was just a publicity stunt... is that it?"

Captain America: "I won't risk the Falcon catching one that's meant for Captain America-- the way Bucky Barnes did! Maybe that's been my trouble with ALL the partners I've had since I was 'resurrected--' Rick Jones-- the Falcon-- Nick Fury-- even Sharon and the Avengers to some extent-- subconsciously, I've been seeing Bucky in them!"
