Red Skull

The Avengers #150

At America's bicentennial celebration, Captain America is whisked away by the Red Skull - in control of a Cosmic Cube! Needing to win over the Cube, Cap offers it a Hostess Twinkie; the Cube is so enamored by the treat that it completely ignores the Skull's commands.

"An Invading Army"
