If its a veiled Kirby comment, its hilarious because its so transparent and gratuitous. Like all of a sudden Cap is really concerned that Benjamin Franklin is going to rip off the Hero Initiative.
Its also hilarious if it FREAKED HIM OUT because it just reads like on of those nonsensical comments you make when you are completely befuddled. When you're in such shock over what just happened, that the only thing you can say makes no sense whatsoever in the situation (ex: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_X6VoFBCE9k)
