Marvel Mecha (Marvel;Re Relaunch)/Issue 1

==Transcript==
The issue begins with a giant mole-like Kaiju, nicknamed the Mole Man, attacking Harlem, as a young Sam Wilson is drawing with chalk while watching it. The Mole Man gets closer to Sam's house, close to destroying it, until a gigantic circular shield hits it, knocking the Mole Man back. Sam looks up in awe and sees the mech, Captain America, standing in front of him as the shield boomerangs back to the Mech. Captain America unleashes a barrage of missiles out of his hand as it hits the monster, who recoils in pain as a response. It attempts to jump on the Captain America as a force field suddenly activates, pushing it back. Captain America walks closer as he uses his free fist to knock Mole Man out cold. Sam, who was still watching the fight, applauds, becoming awestruck with the Mech. Suddenly, a door opens from the back end of the mech and a man in around his thirties and in a baseball cap, exits the mech, with some sort of ray in hand as Sam takes this chance to greet him.
*Sam: "(Surprised) Whoa... you're Captain America!"
*Steve: (Flustered, smirking) Yes, I am, it seems. What's your name?"
*Sam: "S-Samuel, sir! Samuel Wilson. Y-You were so awesome! How did you do all that stuff?!"
*Steve: "(Approaching Sam) Well, Sam... I did all that stuff by training over and over again. It's quite a hard thing being a pilot, really."
*Sam: "Whoa... i-it's just so cool seeing you do all those things! Throwing your shield and all that!"
*Steve: "(Kneels near Sam) Good to see you're happy, Sam. But I must say, the next time you see one of those battles... you should stay close to your parents and get to safety. You don't want to regret it. Understand?"
*Sam: "Yes, sir, Captain America!"
*Steve: "(Smiles) You can call me Steve."
The conversation is interrupted when Steve receives an encrypted message from somewhere else, prompting him to return to his mech, the Captain America. Before doing so, however, Steve takes one last look at Sam and gifts him with something.
* Steve: "Well, Sam Wilson, I'm afraid I can't stay here for long."
* Sam: "It's okay! You're out there saving the world. You shouldn't be staying here with me."
* Steve: "Yeah... you have a point. But I'm going to make your presence here worthwhile, so... (hands Sam his baseball cap, which the boy accepts with wonder) I'll give you this. If your friends ask you, tell them that this one's authentic."
* Sam: "Whoa... thanks, Mr. Steve! Thank you very much, sir!"
* Steve: "You're welcome kid."
Steve walks to the unconscious Mole Man and uses a portable shrink ray to capture the creature before he walks back to the mech.
*Steve: "Stay safe, kid. Hope we'll meet you again someday."
*Sam: "You can count on me, Steve! Stay safe too, sir."
The Captain America walks away from the scene, ending with the view of Sam's hopeful face before switching display to six years later, where Sam Wilson, still wearing the cap, walks in the massive building that is the S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy, entering alongside various other youngsters. After going through a process of identity confirmation, Sam and the others find themselves within a white room, where the sitting recruits are approached by three renowned S.H.I.E.L.D members, skilled pilots Natasha Romanoff; Carol Danvers; and Steve Rogers, who has become the new director of the organization, judging by his new outfit.
* Steve: "(Speaks while walking around the room) Greetings, new recruits. Welcome to S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy. I am Steve Rogers but most of you have probably known of that the second I stepped into this room (smirks as the recruits chuckle). My colleagues and I are here to train you to become the heroes of tomorrow. The next defenders of mankind. The Kaiju are never going to stop attacking us, so it is imperative that the battle for humanity's survival is passed on to the younger generation. For all the fight that's left in our bodies, we don't have long until we lose our lives battling these creatures. We. Need. You. (Pauses) I get it. To say that it's a daunting proposition for youngsters like you to be humanity's next guardians would be an understatement. (Sternly) You're all scared. Trust me, you may not feel it now, but you'll feel it seep in once you remember that a Kaiju attack could be happening any time now. But now's not the time to be afraid. From now on, we are going to forge you into warriors. You're going to learn how to keep a cool head while you're saving the world from the apocalypse, and you're going to learn how to be on your guard 24/7, regardless of how little sleep you get. I will warn you, however, that there's no guarantee that you're going to survive the experience. Only the best of you will get to join us as new warriors. But until then, I wish you all the best for your training. (Raises voice) Are you ready?!"
* Students: "Yes sir!"
*Steve: "That's the spirit! (Looks at Romanoff) Natasha?"
*Natasha: "(Pushes a button that opens the room's exit, which leads to a hangar bay containing many mechanical constructs) Follow the instructions laid out on your datapad. It'll tell you everything you need to know. Basic training starts in an hour. Move your ass."
*Students: "Yes, ma'am!"
The S.H.I.E.L.D. trio depart from the room alongside the new recruits, who marvel at the presence of the metal titans being maintained within the hangar bay. As Sam looks around and accidentally bumps into another recruit. 
* Sam: "Sorry about that, Miss ummmm…"
* Kamala: "Name's Kamala! What's your name?"
* Sam: "Sam. Sam Wilson."
*Kamala: "Nice cap. Where did you get it?"
*Sam: "Would you believe me if I said Steve Rogers himself gave it to me?"
*Kamala: "Seriously? That's so cool! I assume you're a pretty big Captain America fan, aren't you?"
*Sam: "Have been since I was eight!"
*Kamala: "That's the same with me and Captain Marvel! Yeah, I'm a pretty big Captain Marvel fan girl."
*Sam: "I mean who wouldn't when she single handily took down Bi-Beast!"
*Kamala: "I want to be just like her!"
*Sam: "Heh. But we should probably check our data pads."
*Kamala: "Oh! Right! We don't want to be late to training on our first day!"
*Sam: "But man, I haven't seen a Sentinel this close before."
*Kamala: "Yeah same. They were developed by the Stark scientist Bolivar Trask to basically help train recruits. They are mechs but a lot less varied and powerful. I don't think any of the Sentinels actually fought a Kaiju."
*Sam: "Huh. You really did do your research."
*Kamala: "I mean, I want to be the best. But anyways, we should seriously check our data pads."
*Sam: "Yeah, we probably should."
Sam opens up his data pad as Kamala opens hers as it shows various rules of conduct and a map to where the training hall is.
