Breaking up is hard to do... in SHIELD

I was just looking through an X-Men: First Class backissue (could Wanda and Jean BE anymore married?) when I noticed this:



That punching dummy has a handlebar mustache. Is Nick Fury venting frustrations arising from working with Dum-Dum Dugan? I think it'd look something... like this.

The scene: A secret gadget workshop full of strange gizmos. Dum-Dum Dugan is trying on a rocket-derby hat when Nick Fury bursts in.

Nick: SWORD, Dum-Dum? Really? Who else have you been working with? STRIKE? SAFE? HATE?

Dugan: I can't work with you on everything, Nick!

Nick: How long has this been going on?

Dugan: I did some missions with... Captain Savage and his Leatherneck Raiders.

Nick: *gasps*

Dugan: They meant nothing to me, Nick!

Nick runs off. Sarah McLachlan plays I Will Remember You over a montage of sad scenes. Dum-Dum Dugan screams in the rain, Nick Fury cries on Valentina's shoulder, Dum-Dum Dugan goes through a scrapbook of his missions with Nick until he sees a caption that says "best buds forever" and breaks down crying.
