Gosh, Iron Man -- if you won't level with them, how can the Avengers help?

I guess I'll never be a super-hero.

Something's happening to me -- like I was changing -- like I wasn't Rick Jones anymore -- but --Captain Marvel!!

--Richard Jones (Earth-616)

But the real truth is -- I don't know who I am anymore. A folk-rock comer named Rick Jones -- or a guy from another galaxy called Mar-Vell!

--Richard Jones (Earth-616)

I might as well have never left the Avengers.

--Richard Jones (Earth-616)

Captain America taught me how to fight... And that alone makes me worth five of you creeps!

How the (Expletive Deleted) did I get into this mess!

The Teen Brigade days hold some of the fondest memories of my life!

See, that's what heroes do, Steck. They save people. Triumph over obstacles. Beat the bad guys. As for our family, friends, well...they're always casualties, y'see? Relationships fall apart. Loved ones become targets for bad guys. They should really form a support group for families of superdoers. Kind of like they have for families of alcoholics, y'know? It's not all that different, y'know. Alcoholism and super heroing. You become hooked on something that feels so good when you're doing it. You get this...this buzz. This high. And you want more of it, and more. Pretty soon, it takes over your life, and it defines who you are. And sooner or later, it kills you. There's two kinds of super heroes, Steck. Those who die horribly...and those who haven't died yet.

--Richard Jones (Earth-616)

Shinga Doon seemed quite rational in life...so, in death, seems fitting I've rationed him.

--Richard Jones (Earth-616)

I thought I knew rage. I mean, I hung out with the Hulk, for God's sake. I thought I knew what pure, undiluted fury was like. But I've never seen anything like what Marv does to his father. Never. Ever. It makes the 'Singing in the Rain' sequence from 'Clockwork Orange' look like a third grade ballet recital.

--Richard Jones (Earth-616)

No, hey! There's the bad monster -- I'm the nice monster!

--Richard Jones (Earth-616)

It's too much for me! I've got the most powerful thing in the world under my control, and I don't know what to do with it! But one thing I do know... I don't dare go to sleep again, unless he's locked up back in his dungeon!

--Richard Jones (Earth-616)
