I'd like to take issue with the article's stance that no new sidekicks have been introduced recently, unless they're jokes or parodies. Wonder Girl, Speedy, Superboy, Impulse/ Kid Flash, and I thought there was a new Aquagirl or something in the Aquaman books. Hell, even Deathstroke has a kid sidekick now. And as far as Captain America not having a sidekick since Bucky, I have two words for that: Bull-fucking-shit. He surrounds himself with more ham-n-eggers than anybody. Falcon, D-Man, Nomad, Diamondback, Battlestar. Granted, most of these haven't exactly been teenagers, but I think my point is still valid.
