Hello, hero. This is control. Are you for hire tonight?

Hero, you listen to me very carefully. We've done research. The gun you're holding is cursed. It's something the magic-types called Demonica. It may be hard, but you've got to get rid of it.

Putting a lot of trust in you, Sam Wilson. I'm the only one who knows-- not even my S.H.I.E.L.D. handlers have been told. Hydra's infiltrated everyone. Flipped someone in every one of your super hero teams. The Avengers, the Inhumans, the X-Men-- Everyone. The things I'm hearing on the stream-- The thing's they've already accomplished. Sam, the war was over before anyone knew it began... Hydra's already won.

Sam, you are a black man, and you are Captain America. Nobody ever notices history when it's happening, but let me tell you -- that is not a thing, that is the thing. And most of us, all the time -- we just try to play like it's normal, try not to make you think about what's on your shoulders, but -- sorry, champ -- that don't mean it isn't. And this is one of those times when there's no getting around it. A lot of kids here in South Philly, they got to look up in the sky and see Jim and say that could be them someday. That kind of hope is in way too short supply these days, but -- well, now they don't have him. But at least they still have you -- and now you need to make sure that's enough.

—Captain America: Sam Wilson Vol 1 10

Our friends have to be looking for us, right?
