Hello. I came to talk. I've been thinking lately. About you and me. About what's going to happen to us, in the end. We're going to kill each other, aren't we? Perhaps you'll kill me. Perhaps I'll kill you. Perhaps sooner. Perhaps later

"Now there's a question. First, I want to walk into a bar and drink it. And then I'm going to start a fight with five men and win. And then I am going to make use of a truly staggering number of prostitues - some of whom I may have once been married to. Following which, I will buy drugs. I will, in fact, show them a large pillowcase and instruct them to fill it with drugs.

...And I'm putting it all on the expense account."

-Mitchel Royce, super editor

[BlackOpsTengu]

Green Arrow: "*Score.*"

[mathhater]

- Superman: “You’re asking where was I? I was a million miles away…chasing my holy trinity. Three words…'Superman…Save me.’”

Collosus thinking while fighting a giant monster: It's strange to hear Scott in my head. He is different from the professor...he is more...free? Why does that that word unsettle me? I am riding a monster's nostrils. I really should concentrate.

Kitty thinking while saving people from falling debris: Came on too strong, what a dope..."it means something that I found you..." But doesn't it? The X-Men didn't find him. I did. I could never explain what that felt like. I should probably concentrate here.

Wolverine thinking while fighting the giant monster. I really like beer.

Astonishing X-Men: Dangerous

[blah]

hehe, I liked that one.

[Mister J]

"I mean, what is it with you? What made you what you are? Girlfriend, killed by the mob, maybe? Brother carved up by some mugger? Something like that, I bet. Something like that happened to me, you know. I'm not exactly sure what it was. Sometimes I remember it one way, sometimes another. If I'm going to have a past, I prefer it multiple choice!"

[blah]

Joker? Sounds creepy.

[Mister J]

"Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's SUPERMAN! Superman: Strange visitor from another world! Who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel in his bare hands and who, as the champion of the common worker, fights a never-ending battle for Stalin, Socialism and the international expansion of the Warsaw Pact. Superman: Pride of the Soviet state. Symbol of our military might, Let our enemies beware: there is only one super-power now!" Superman: Red Son

"Ultron, We would have words with thee"...Thor
Im paraphrasing this one since it was so long ago that I read this....
"On Olympus we measure wisdom by Athena, strength by Hercules and Courage by Captain America"

[Elijya]

aww, that last one's sweet. Any idea where it's from?

[Harlekin]

Hercules in Captain America #444. The full quote:
"On Olympus we measure wisdom against Athena... speed against Hermes... power against Zeus. But we measure courage... against Captain America."

[roach]

thanks for the help...for me that sums up CA

[Mee]

"Surrender? Surrender?! You think this letter on my head stands for France?!"
-Ultimate Captain America

My pleasure. I seem to remember that Thor also had a nice quote about Cap, pretty much in the same vein as the Hercules-quote.

Something about if he was a god he'd be the god of winning??????

Kang after killing his Son Marcus (The Scarlet Centurion)

He should never have come back for me. I would have died, and gladly, to avoid this, but I didn't. And Kang the Conqueror cannot tolorate a traitor in his camp. CANNOT.

Also this one:

"I am Kang the Conqueror...and today my legend ends."

[BrianWilly]

Daniel, the King of Dreams: "Why do you hesitate each time? This man Jordan, the one who wore the magic ring before you... Why does he overshadow all of your thoughts and actions?"

Kyle Rayner: "What? What does this have to do with anything? I was just thinking about...what is this about Hal?"

Daniel: "You will surpass him. You already know what he could never learn."

Kyle: "Sh'yeah! Hal Jordan was the best. Everybody knows that. Everybody keeps telling me that. No matter what I do...I met him; The guy was a star. What could I possibly know that he didn't?"

Daniel: "Fear. You will surpass him."

[Spectre722]

[MaskedManJRK]

"Everyone is special. EVERYBODY. Everybody is is a HERO, a LOVER, a FOOL, a VILLIAN. Everybody. Everybody has their story to tell."
-- V, V for Vendetta (just about sums up my idea of how we as a society on this planet work with each other)

"It's a quotation, a motto... 'Vi veri veniversum vivus vici.' 'By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.'"
-- V, V for Vendetta

"Her name is anarchy, and she has taught me more as a mistress than you EVER did! She has taught me that justice is mingingless without freedom. She is honest. She makes no promises and breaks none. Unlike YOU, jesebel."
-- V, V for Vendetta

"Anarchy wears two faces, both Creator and Destroyer. Thus destroyers topple empires, make a canvas of clean rubble where Creators can then build a better world. Rubble, once achieved, makes further ruins' means irrelevant.

"Away with our explosives, then! Away with our Destroyers! They have no place within our better world.

"But let us raise a toast to all our bombers, all our bastards, most unlovely and most unforgivable. Let's drink to their health...then meet with them no more."
-- V, V for Vendetta

[I_am_budders]

Lex Luthor: What gives measure to a mans choices is what he has to give up to make them. I am man. I hope.

[The Question]

The Question (after being betrayed by a hitman who's life he was trying to save during a tornado): Once upon a time, a scorpion and a beaver were on the bank of a river. The scorpion asked if the beaver would carry him across the water. The beaver said no. He was afraid the scorpion would sting him half way to the other side. The scorpion said that was absurd. After all, if he was stung, they would both drown. So the beaver began to swim with the scorpion on his back. And sure enough, half way the scorpion stung the beaver. As they were sinking beneath the waves, drowning, the beaver asked the scorpion why he had done such a foolish thing. It's my nature, the scorpion said. I've always wondered how the beaver could talk with a mouthful of river, and at a time like that, why he gave a damn.

The Question (after being caught in a tornado): Then I'm flying. I don't feel a bit like Superman. Or Dorothy. And this sure as hell isn't Oz.

[Anubis]

Wow, I totally heard that in an episode of MacGuyver once.

[Anubis]

Jack Knight at his Father, Ted's funeral:

"um.... Back before...when my father and the Justice Society were trapped fighting asgaurdian gods....everyone thought they were dead. Everyone but me.

I knew my father was still alive. I sensed it somehow. This time, in that same way, I know my father is gone for good. And....I miss him. That's all."

Walks away from the microphone, then comes back.

"Oh and he would want me to thank you all for coming. He was polite that way."

[The Question]

Wow, I totally heard that in an episode of MacGuyver once.



Which part?

[Anubis]

Ted Knight and The Mist, in orbit above the earth, seconds before a Nuke is to go off in the building Ted's just levitated into the atmosphere:

Ted So, it's today. I always wondered.

Mist What? What could possibly be on your mind at a time like this?

Ted This is the day two silly old men have the common sense to shuffle off stage and leave the world to the young.

Mist All I ever wanted was to beat you. My name..The Mist... I thought there was a certain Pedigree to it..I thought...I see now...I'm no more a success than my daughter.

Ted Hey, you got me up here on the world's biggest firecracker. That's an achievement. Come on man, stand up. Face the end on your feet...I wish I could say it's been fun.

Mist Me..

BOOM!!

[Jono87]

Which part?

The "its my nature" story

ah...I'm MacGuyver lol...good times

[Green Lantern]

Three very awesome similarities albeit sad :(


1986

Superman: C'mon Kara, don't give up. You'll make it. Pl... Please stay with us.

Kara: I... I can't. B..But its okay. I knew what I was doing. I wanted you to be safe. You mean so much to me, so much to the world.

Superman: You succeeded in destroying the machines.

Kara: Thank Heaven... the worlds have a chance to live. Y-you're crying... please don't. You taught me to be brave... and I was. I... I love you so much for what you are... for how good you are...

Jump 6 years later:

Lois: Please hang on! The paramedics will be here any second! Please!

Superman: Doomsday... is he... is he...

Lois: You stopped him! You saved us all! Now relax until--

Jump 14 years later:

Superboy: He said I wasn't the real Superboy, *kff*... he was wrong. I just forgot for a little while... ...we all forgot... don't let them forget again...

Wonder Girl: Just hang in there okay?

Superboy: *kff*

Wonder Girl: You did it, Conner. You saved the Earth. You saved everyone.

Superboy: I know, Cass. Isn't it cool?

[The Question]

The "its my nature" story

It's a rather famous story. Q was just paraphrasing it.

BOOM!!


Dude. Kick ass.

[Anubis]

Yeah, Ted Knights got one of the all time best deaths ever in my book.

[ShadowBoxing]

My favorite DC quote so far really is

"face it Clark...the last time you really inspired anyone was when you were dead."

[Green Lantern]

Yeah, Ted Knights got one of the all time best deaths ever in my book.I'd say the three I mentioned stand up there too... Heck, Supes is the least heroic of the three... his trainees saved the universe, he only saved Metropolis :o

[Anubis]

Actually he saved the world, Doomsday would have destroyed everything had he not taken him down. And Supergirl didn't save the universe, that was Flash. She saved Superman and Dr. Light.

[Green Lantern]

Actually he saved the world, Doomsday would have destroyed everything had he not taken him down. And Supergirl didn't save the universe, that was Flash. She saved Superman and Dr. Light.She made it possible for Flash, she destroyed the machines that were merging the Earth's. Had she not, they wouldn't have lasted long enough for Flash to destroy the Anti-Matter cannon. They BOTH saved the universe.

[Anubis]

True, true.

[ang_hulk]

"im black"

spidey on the stand as to why jjj doesnt like him.first time I ever laughed out loud at a comic

"hulk smash"

[Vanguard07]

Prof Hulk in revenge of the sinister six after waking up under the rubble of a warehouse that he'd been buried unconscious under:

[boywondernerdDC]

Along with your rocket launchers mortars grenades and knives. I took them and i destroyed them. And I told you... No more. -Superman

[Hush]

This Thread is truly amazing!!!

[LibrarianThorne]

Superman: Doomsday is cancelled until further notice. The Mageddon warhead has been disarmed.
Batman: I knew you'd say that, Clark. Just wasn't sure when.

Metron: This Earth. Its expressive diversity of creation. Its self-evolving perfection. And soil fertile enough to grow gods if spared the wrath of the last survivor of a war that ended in fire fifteen billion years from here. Preserve this world!
Green Lantern (Kyle): I'd die to save this place. I'm serious! I'll die a hundred times over for every living thing on this planet if that's what it takes! But Mageddon killed my ring... I'm just Kyle Rayner... I'm a freelance artist who works out... I'm just this guy, you know?
Metron: Is that Mageddon's will? Or is it yours? As New Genesis is to the Fourth World, the Earth shall be to the Fifth that is to come.

[Blomberg]

The "its my nature" story

ah...I'm MacGuyver lol...good times


Excpet in Macgyver it was a scorpian and a turtle.

[boywondernerdDC]

i love all these quotes. the jack knight at his fathers funeral is awesome we need more guys come on

[The Question]

The Question (who is about to be burned alive by a hitman): The gasoline fumes sting my eyes, make me gag. I try to move, to react, but I can't. One of the bastards must have connected with a nerve cluster in the base of my spine when they were stomping me a few moments ago. Nothing's broken, but the nerves are traumatized. I can do no more than twitch, and that's not going to be enough. The tornado is very near. I can hear the wind shrieking outside, and slaps or rain againts the house. But the loudest sound in the world is the scrape of a match head on a dirty thumb nail. Then, my personal demon, that old devil curiosity, nudges me, and I wonder what it will feel like to burn alive. I wonder if it can possibly be as horrible as I imagine, and I fing myself anxious to know. And everything I am, everything I have been and could have been, is congealed in a wavering point of flame.

[psycho]

Amanda Waller: I dont like this.
Batman: I dont like you.

From "Hush"

[Anubis]

From Punisher: Welcome Back Frank

Gun Fight in the Morgue, Rule one: Don't hide behind the thin guy.

Bruce: i've been thinking about something you once told me....and you were wrong. It's not Batman that makes you worth while, it's the other way around. Never tell yourself anything different

Terry:Thanks

Now that we know who you are... I know who I am - I'm not a mistake! It all makes sense, in the comics you know who the arch villain is going to be? He's the exact opposite of the hero! And most time's they're friends like you, and me. I should've known way back when you know why David?! Because of the kids! They called me Mr. Glass

-Unbreakable

[cerealkiller182]

Others from Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker

Joker:You know, kids, a lot has changed since your old Uncle Joker's been away. New Gotham, new rules, even a new Batman. But now I'm tanned, I'm rested and I'm ready to give this old town a wedgie again!

Joker:Ah, the new boy. Ears are too long and I miss the cape. But not too shabby. Not too shabby at all.

The Joker: Funny guy.

Terry McGinnis/Batman: Can't say the same thing about you.

The Joker: Impudent brat. Who do you think you're talking to?

Terry McGinnis/Batman: Not a comedian, I'll tell you that.

The Joker: Shut your mouth!

Terry McGinnis/Batman: The real Batman never talked to you much, did he? That's probably why you were so fixated on him.

The Joker: Don't play psychoanalyst with me, boy.

Terry McGinnis/Batman: Oh, I don't need a degree to figure you out. The real reason you kept coming back was you never got a laugh out of the old man.

The Joker: I'm not hearing this...

Terry McGinnis/Batman: Get a clue, clowny. He's got no sense of humor. He wouldn't know a good joke if it bit him in the cape. Not that you ever had a good joke. I mean, joy buzzers, squirting flowers - lame. Where's the A material? Make a face, drop your pants, something!

Thanos: No.
Galactus: Then let Silence reign.

"Kooeykooeykooey"- I Can't Believe it's Not the Justice League

"Tell him that whatever happens, it's not his fault. And you tell him that he's the best friend I ever had." - Blue Beetle, talking about the comatose Booster Gold, Countdown to Infinite Crisis

"Should I not be seen as something holy? When the Praying Mantis bites off her lover's head at the peak of their embrace, is it not beautiful? What impulse coils the snake? Isn't my clutching hand as reverent as a frightened spider, drawing in its limbs? Is it predatorial of a virus to invade and burn the health out of a body? Or is it simply right? Why is a viral life not as blessed as any other? The eagle dives only for the meekest, most hallowed of lambs. It is the sane man who is fascinated by the mandman, never the reverse. These things are my body and blood. This is the Hymn of Hell, my lethal prayer" -

Beelzebub, Kid Eternity # 14 (Probably one of my favorite quotes. Sorry it's so long)

"War. An art that, with one finishing stroke, I finally mastered... But to what ultimate triumph? Apokolips is still helpless with those who cannot... will not help themseles. I have long considered uprooting the more abberant lowlies... exiling them to some distant orb... but it seems unconscionable to inflict such grievous wounds on another world."

apart from the Beelzebub bit, that's all from memory, so it may be slightly innacurate.

With one exception, I try to avoid conversations in the following quotes.

"Like a kite that has lost its war with the wind, I hand crucified upon the sky... Suspended between the soil and the stars, between heaven and earth, between the angels and the apes. There is no-one like me. I'm Miracleman. Gravity is a sullen giant who snatches irratiblly at my heels. The hurricane is my mistress. I slide my body across her arctic vectors and her sigh is an ecstacy of birds. Her nails rake my back and she howls her bitterness, begging me to stay, pleading with me to deny the dark and jealous planet that waits below. But I can't. I can't. I can't. Kimota."
Miracleman - Miracleman #2

"Good. While she carries the child there must be no unnecessary stress. She must be treated with care and respect. After the nativity, you can give her to the men."
Dr. Gargunza - Miracleman #7

"No. He was a vision... That blonde hair. Those blue eyes... When I was a youth, our leaders spoke of a new kind of man. An uber-mensch, ja? I saw him then, in my mind. I saw him again tonight. We waited for him to come for forty years... and then we killed him."
Soldier - Miracleman #7

"Far behind me I heard the hammer of paws, loud as ritual drums... and the jungle dream yawned with dislocated jaws, swallowing me whole. How had I come here, to this carcass forest? Was it a thirst for power alone that led me to drink at this tainted well? No, not power alone. I wanted the white miracle. I wanted to touch the pale god that they had birthed with their machinery. The thing they had which we had not. And thus I reached out for that ivory promise, as did my father, as did his father before him... and I learned that thing which I must tell: That whitness which we pursue through the dark trees of our inner continent... it is not the whiteness of hot steel or of sanctity... It is the whiteness of bone. It is death. Only death. The grail we have been following is filled with poison wine."
Evelyn Creme - Miracleman #6

1. "And then we fought. Given the speed of thought and motion shared by all the combatants, that opening skirmish took but seconds... seconds that erased the landmarks of two hundred years; that blew the past away... and launched mythologies that shall endure until the sun grows red, and over-ripe, and cold."

2. "The bank of England's mass of debt and credit could contain him not at all. Erupting in a waterspout of krugerrands, he showered in blood and gold while from a thousand fluttering notes the queen look on, as ever uninterested."

3. "There was no pause and no respite. He lept for Aza Chorn, fast as a cheetah; as a mamba; as an ink-black thunderbolt. Yet, when they brag amongst themselves, the cats and snakes and sheets of lightning use one ultimate comparison, albeit sparingly. Fast as a warpsmith."

4. "For my part, I prefer the gnostic faiths, such as the Knights of Warpsmith Resurrected, who in symbol-laden gospels, tell how I play chess with Bates for Earth, atop a mountain of the dead... and Aza Chorn, when I've lost every piece but one, tears out his heart and cries, "Here! Play with this instead!" But best of all, the Church of Deicide relates how we approached the old sick gods of Earth and murdered them to steal their power. They tell of Shiva, quite disarmed; of Gabriel's blazing sword snapped into two across my knee. The Church has only ninteen worshippers. I send them small donations under different names."

5. "He was amongst us, snorting, stamping. There was nothing sane in his incinerator eyes. He was Ahriman. He was Loki. He was Lucifer and Set. He was the bad god, cast in awful flesh. We'd had no time to draw up pentacles or work our charms."

6. "There were so many vehicles, all trying to get out of London. My apologists have claimed that the car that I first hurled at Bates was empty, those who'd been inside having all previously escaped. I'm sorry, but that simply isn't true."

7.
Miracleman: "Johnny, listen... You're dooming yourself. What... what happens when you've run out of things to destroy? It's just emptiness for you Johnny. Empty cruelty. Empty life. Look what you've done to yourself, to everything around you. You've taken something marvelous and turned it into sewage. God forgive you."
Kid Miracleman: "Burn in hell. "(smashes a truck over MM, covering him in burning fuel).

I havent read the issue in years, but in the Image series The Maxx, the villian Mr. Gone has Julie tied up in a Playboy Bunny outfit and starts talking smack...
Im not going to even try to do a direct quote (though if someone has it handy then awesome)

But its something to the effect of girls primping and making themselves sexy to turn guys on and then when guys look at them they get disgusted and turn us down...

It was the only time I have EVER read a supervillians lines and actually felt uncomfortable with it...because we know that somewhere out there girls have been assaulted or worse for the same twisted "reason".

I thought this part of the comic was really cool from Batman #649. Jason has the Joker tied up and they are talking and Jason says:

"You're not nearly as crazy as you'd like us all to believe. Or even as crazy as you'd like to believe. I just makes it easier to justify every sick, monstrous thing you've ever done when you play the part of the mad clown. You're crazy, Bubba--but you ain't that crazy. Look at that. I wiped a smile off of Joker's face. I have been waiting a looooooong time for that."

'If you want to beat your opponent, Bruce, you have to think like your opponent.' If Clark wanted to, he could use his superspeed and squish me into the cement. But I know how he thinks. Even more than the Kryptonite, he's got one big weakness. Deep down, Clark's essentially a good person...

According to Ra's --who could be lying--someone took advantage of one of the pits' healing energies. As with most things, using the Lazarus Pit comes at a price. Upon emergence from the pit, madness fuels the survivor. You enter dead. You come out insane.

[trustyside-kick]

For Hush Returns you basically find out that a crooked cop killed Joker's wife 12 years ago when the whole Red Hood thing happened and Riddler trades the information with the Joker for protection from Hush since he is pissed at the Riddler for using him in Batman: Hush. Hush beats the **** out of a lot of people too, and even gets Prometheus to help him out at the end. They easily defeat Joker's men along with people from The Society (sent by Deathstroke) and at the very end I was confused about the part with Talia wanting Prometheus (who was killed towards the end by Hush himself I believe for betraying him).

In The Comics section under the Batman one there is a post called 'Is there a sequel to Hush Returns?' which we all basically discussed stuff in Hush Returns and the somewhat sequel (issues 73 and 74 from Gotham Knights).

Well you gotta read it for yourself. Basically I believe that Hush could have actually been a good villain...but they like prevented that. Don't get me wrong there were parts I liked. But you should read it since a summary does not tell all afterall.

Who are you referring to when you say "them". And yes he is Hush cause in Hush Returns when Batman finds him he is like "Tommy blah blah blah." Then Tommy says stuff and is like "Not Tommy, call me Hush." (which I thought that whole part was stupid/corny/sounded dumb). Have you read Hush Returns or Gotham Knights 73 and 74?

[Spectre722]

no i read somewhere that in i think during war games, hush and tommy elliot were standing next to each other in the samer room.

no i read somewhere that in i think during war games, hush and tommy elliot were standing next to each other in the samer room.

??? Makes no sense. Besides Hush Returns is after that right? Also, Hush performs surgery on Prometheus after Green Arrow shoots him to near death.

Plus Bruce kept calling him Tommy and crap.

Could you possibly scan that page or something? I have been wanting to read the War Games saga but have not had the time (don't read everything in order just depends).

Alfred saw Tommy chained to a table, while he saw Hush standing around talking to Prometheus.

What are you talking about? In Hush Returns? Tommy was not chained to some table. And Tommy performs surgery on Prometheus after saving his life and at the end of Hush Returns kills Prometheus. And where the heck are you getting this thing with Alfred seeing Hush, Tommy, and Prometheus in the same room...

The only part I recall Tommy (as Hush) seeing Alfred is when he goes to Wayne Manor and then Tommy (as Hush) goes to ask Bruce if he could pay for his surgery and Bruce says no (In Gotham Knights #74).

Then why were you trying to prove me wrong if you have not read it? Lol.

[Shadowknight]

Then why were you trying to prove me wrong if you have not read it? Lol.
? I wasn't trying to prove anybody wrong; I was just stating what I heard 2nd hand, incorrect or not.

[trustyside-kick]

Just seemed like you were since you kept saying stuff against it when you have not even read the storyline lol; it's cool.

A really cool quote I liked was the one that Harvey said at the beginning and end of The Long Halloween...I believe it was:

"Two shots to the head. You ask me, it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy."

:up:

I'm sure this has probably already been done but it's been a long day and I havent the energy to trawl through loads of posts:_

Superman to Mongul as he blasts him with heat vision: "Burn".

Absolutely Love that.

That was in one of the comics too? I remember seeing that in the JL episode "For the Man that has Everything". But still a cool quote. :up:

Yeah - that episode was based off Superman annual #5 'for the man who has everything'.

I got such a kick out of watching the cartoon version of that story and was especially awaiting to see if they had Supes say "burn".

Obviously they did, and I was very happy. lol. :up:

Was nice to see Superman act differently in that episode. In the other JL episodes he is such a boyscout at times.

Was cool when he was beating him into the rock wall and was all like "Have you got any idea what I have lost?! What I've--". :up:

Too true. :up:

[trustyside-kick]

I do not read the Superman comics really but I got a question...is he more like a boyscout in his own issues too? Or what.

[Brian Braddock]

To be honest, no.

I find that he's a bit too good in the JL cartoon. In the comics he can be pretty bad-ass when he wants to be. Thats why the bit in Superman Annual #5 sticks in my memory - its a moment were Supes genuinely lets loose.

[trustyside-kick]

Oh ok.

[The Question]

*Green Arrow saves The Question from some mob hitmen*

The Question: Well well, the cavalry arrives. Only you look more like the indians.

Green Arrow: Personally, I like to think of myself as a modern Robin Hood.

Hitman 1: You shot us with...ARROWS!

Hitman 2: That...that is...CRUEL!


*The Question is tied up*

The Question: Hey, cut me loose. Then do your Florence Nightingale number.

Green Arrow: No.

The Question: Why not?

Green Arrow: 'Cause I don't know who you are.

The Question: I'm the guy the bad guys with guns were about to kill, remember?

Green Arrow: Doesn't make you a good guy. Punks are always offing punks. Besides, mother told me never to trust someone without a face.

The Question: Whereas model citizens always go around wearing masks.

Green Arrow: It keeps my beard company.




Green Arrow: Think of it like this: Somewhere in the world, there's a kid; Itallian, Chinese, American, Israeli, Polish, Norwegian, Russian, Irani, even Eskimo, maybe even Bedouin. Whatever. This kid, whoever he is, whatever he is, might grow up and cure cancer, or end the arms race, or tell people what all religions are really about. Or just become a hell of a nice guy. He deserves the chance. He shouldn't be denied his potential just because some fanatic has a cause and a gun.

Now about the art itself. About magic... I think I speak with some authority. By means of magic I have lived for many...millions...of years. And I've had the time to do a great deal of thinking. And what I think is this. The whole thing is a crock of dirt. Not worth the price I paid. Not for one second.

Famous last words, kiddo. Mine were: "Gee, from up here it almost looks like that guy with the hook's holding a rifle..."

It's not black magic versus white magic. I tend to think of it as live magic versus dead magic. But even that's simple dualism... additionally, magic, even dark magic isn't Satanism — although I've dealt with the odd devil in my time. Magic is about power. It's seeing through the shadows to the real world beyond.
-Tannarak

[The Question]

That reminds me, is Ollie's ID secet? You'd think the distinctive facial hair would give him away.

Well, it's not really secret or public. I mean, it's technically secret, but he doesn't seem to care if anyone knows or not. And really, the beard wouldn't be that huge of a give away. I mean, not many people would know that a guy named Ollie Queen has a beard like that.

I stopped reading GA when it became about assasin dwarves and talking sound effects. Or, at least sometime before Drakon, whom I cannot stop hearing about, showed up. I'd assumed that Ollie was affluent ad social still. It's like if Batman grew a beard like that. People know Bruce Wayne; Someone would make the connection.

My favorite passage from my favorite chapter of Watchmen:

The photograph is in my hand. It is the photograph of a man and a woman. They are at an amusement park in 1959. In twelve seconds time, I drop the photograph to the sand at my feet, walking away. It’s already lying there, twelve seconds into the future. Ten seconds now.

The photograph is still in my hand. I found it in a derelict bar at the Gila Flats Test Base, twenty-seven hours ago. It’s still there, twenty-seven hours into the past, in its frame, in the darkened bar. I’m still there looking at it. The photograph is in my hand. The woman takes a piece of popcorn between her thumb and forefinger. The ferris wheel pauses. Seven seconds now.

It’s October 1985. I’m on Mars. It’s July, 1959. I’m in New Jersey, at the Palisades Amusement Park. Four Seconds. Three.

I’m tired of looking at the photograph now. I open my fingers. It falls to my feet. I am going to look at the stars. They are so far away, and their light takes so long to reach us…

All we ever see of stars are their old photographs.

Paraphrasing as I don't remember the exact quote

From the book...

Superman: Under A Yellow Sun

"He didn't know why he got on the helicopter, Maybe because while the good guys didn't always win, neither did the Bad Guys."


Superboy Prime

"You're ruining me"



Myx to Superman In Whatever Happened to the Man of Tommorow

"I'm an immortal, like everyone in the fifth dimension. The big problem
with being immortal is filling your time. For example, I spent the first
two thousand years of my existence doing absolutely nothing. I didn't
move...I didn't even breathe. Eventually, simple inertia became tiresome,
so I spent the next two thousand years being saintly and benign, doing
good deeds. When that novelty faded, I decided to try being mischevious.
Now, two thousand years later, I'm bored again. I need a change.
Starting with your death, I shall spend the next two millenia being evil!
After that, who knows? Perhaps I'll try being guilty for a while.

Did you honestly believe a fifth-dimensional sorcerer would resemble a
funny little man in a derby hat? Would you like to see how I _really_
look?"

Quicksilver in counseling with Doc Samson:

PIETRO: So you're the fellow that Val Cooper has hired for this odious task.
SAMSON: Why "odious" Quicksilver?
PIETRO: It's idiotic government regulations. "After a mission deemed traumatic enough, all team members are to attend counselling sessions." Rubbish. I assure you, there's nothing we cannot handle. We do not need a "doctor" attempting to dissect us.
SAMSON: I take it you don't think much of me.
PIETRO: I don't think much of anyone.
SAMSON: Well, Val did warn me you're always nasty. She called it PMS...
PIETRO: I beg your pardon?
SAMSON: "Pietro Maximoff Syndrome". An uncontrollable urge to be high-handed and arrogant.
PIETRO: And I'm upholding that assessment?
SAMSON: Somewhat, yes. You seem proud of it.
PIETRO: I revel in it. I'll have you know, doctor, not everyone can raise arrogance to the level of an art form. [solves a Rubik's Cube in seconds as he's speaking]
SAMSON: I have a jigsaw puzzle over there that's been stumping me, if you'd care to...
PIETRO: Certainly.
SAMSON: So... you don't think much of anyone. Does that include yourself?
PIETRO: Myself most of all.
SAMSON: So you're saying you feel inferior?
PIETRO: Not at all. I simply hold myself to an impossibly high standard. No one else even comes close.
SAMSON: You don't wear an X-Factor uniform.
PIETRO: They haven't offered.
SAMSON: You haven't asked.
PIETRO: I prefer my individuality.
SAMSON: Why do you feel so set apart from everyone else? Is there anyone you feel close to within X-Factor, Pietro? Feel friendship or even affection for?........... Well?
PIETRO: None of your business. Tell me doctor... Have you ever stood in line at a banking machine behind a person who didn't know how to use it? Or wanted to buy stamps at the post office, and the fellow in front of you wants to know every single way he can ship his package to Istanbul? Or gotten some counter idiot at Burger King who cant comprehend "Whopper, No Pickles?"
SAMSON: Well... yes... I suppose...
PIETRO: And how do you feel on those occasions?
SAMSON: Impatient. Irritated. A little angry.
sometimes.
PIETRO: Precisely. Because your life is being slowed to a crawl by the inabilities or the inconvenient behavior of others. It's not a rational or considerate attitude to have, but there it is. Now, Imagine, Doctor, that everyone you work with, everywhere you go your entire world is filled with people who cant work cash machines. I'd venture to say, Doctor, that you too would suffer from PMS. Get the picture? Not so puzzling now, is it.

Some Thanos quotes:

"Am I not Thanos?! Did I not butcher the woman who gave me birth, who force-fed me into this hell called life?! Is not the wake of my passing crimson with the blood of my enemies and allies alike?! Death is with me every second of the day! My every moment is spent in either dealing out death or worshipping it! So tell me, who under the stars is better suited than I to be Death's consort?"

"Who would have thought that becoming God would be such a hollow victory"

And a few more Dr. Manhattan quotes:

"This world's smartest man means no more to me than does its smartest termite."

"A live body and a dead body contain the same number of particles. Structurally, there's no discernible difference. Life and death are unquantifiable abstracts. Why should I be concerned?"

Laurie Juspeczyk: Is that what you are? The most powerful thing in the universe and you're just a puppet following a script?
Doctor Manhattan: We're all puppets, Laurie. I'm just a puppet who can see the strings.

I'm not trying to be a butt but isn't this in wrong section? This is The Comic Books > DC Comics > Comic Quotes. :O

[Vanguard07]

Is it really bothering you that there's some overlap? There is no Marvel comic quotes thread and the title of this one doesnt specify DC.

Yeah you could make the assumption that it should be only DC but is there really any harm?

[trustyside-kick]

I never said it really bothered me I was just stating the fact that the section previous to this section that this thread is in is called DC Comics and that he quoted Marvel. So even if this thread is just called Comic Quotes instead of DC Comics Quotes it is pretty obvious when it is in the DC Comics section. lol.

And Flash can control how fast he moves alot better than Quicksilver. And Quicksilver lives in a completely different universe. It makes perfect sense as to why he's a jerk, really.

[trustyside-kick]

I am not trying to ask who is better but Quicksilver besides super speed can travel through time by vibrating his molecules fast right?

All the Flashes are known for super speed. But I thought only Barry Allen was the special one that could travel through time and vibrate his molecules to pass through solid objects. What can the other Flashes do besides the super speed?

I don't see why people are comparing the two anyway when they are from different universes. Also, Quicksilver used to be a villain and Flash has always been a hero...so makes sense why Quicksilver would be more of a jerk.

Someone please fill me in. :P

I believe any Flash can travel through time using the cosmic treadmill. All of the Flashes can vibrate their molecules to move through solid objects. The Flashes really aren't comparable to Quicksilver. From what I've gathered, the Flashes are on a whole other level of power compared to Quicksilver.

From what I have learned only Barry is the one able to do all the special flash stuff besides super speed though. Anyone here actually a huge Flash fan or read his comics old and newest?

[ToddIsDead]

That's completely not true. If anything, Wally was ten times more powerful and had much better control over what he could do witht the speed force. Barry was nothing special.

ToddIsDead, do you read the comics? I am just curious where your sources come from. I am not trying to insult your awareness of the character because afterall I am not a huge Flash fan myself.

[ToddIsDead]

I've read quite a few Flash comics and I have a pretty good knowledge of the characters. I'm more curious about where you learned what you learned, because besides Jay, I think Barry may have been one of the weaker Flashes.

I know how wikipedia works and all and how stuff can be left out and all but that is where I was reading up on Barry.

They keep talking about how Wally has been getting better and better and all but how Allen had better control and stuff. Iono. :/

If you just read further, it negated most of what you said. It says that Wally has traversed time and has moved through solid objects. I just said that Barry was the most experienced and seasoned, which up until recently, I would agree with.

So has Barry. They said "like Allen in Showcase #4 in 1956". And like you just said Berry was more experienced with it. Makes sense since Wally is related to Allen, oh well.

[ToddIsDead]

Wally West has said more than once that Barry Allen was the Flash most experienced with time travel. However, Wally has been shown to have a connection to the Speed Force, an extradimensional energy source, which provides his powers and gives him several other abilities. While all speedsters are powered by the force, West mainlines the power from the force itself and cannot be cut off from the source, unlike the others. Wally has on several occasions sped faster than light and been pulled into and exited the speed force by his own volition. He can create his costume out of pure speed energy, and can either impart his high velocities to other people and objects already in motion or steal the velocity they possess. Jay Garrick also possesses this ability to some degree; he stole speed from Black Adam in order to defeat the villainous Johnny Sorrow, and he has threatened to steal Bart Allen's (formerly Impulse, currently the new Kid Flash) speed on at least one occasion when he was misbehaving. West can vibrate through objects; in the past, West would cause whatever he vibrated through to explode, but has recently shown this to be a controlled ability as he can pass through objects without any ensuing explosion. Although not nearly as precise as Allen when he used his cosmic treadmill, West has shown to be able to traverse time and dimensions with his own powers, like Allen in Showcase #4 in 1956. However, Wally now accelerates to the point that he is skirting the very edge of the Speed Force dimension, and can traverse along the timestream to specific points as they become visible, much like watching a movie in fast forward or reverse (however he must have a particular speedster's vibratory signature to search for and lock onto, or be very familiar with the vibration of that time period).

This says some of the specific abiliies that Wally had. Much more than just superspeed.

Yea and also in that bolded part you pasted it says "like Allen" did. Lol, this all started with a comparison with Quicksilver and Flash that someone made. No point in this little comparison between Allen and West. Obviously with West being the current Flash he will get even better with his powers in the near future.

Our little comparison has become kind of pointless don't you think? :O

[ToddIsDead]

I wa just pointing out that the other Flashes have other powers too. You implied that only Barry did, and you asked about it, I answered. Anyway it is pointless. Besides, any one of the Flashes is way more powerful than Quiksilver.

P.S. Wally isn't the current Flash.

[trustyside-kick]

Who is then?

[Hush]

Bart, lets go back to the quotes now.

[trustyside-kick]

I thought Bart was Kid Flash though...that whole thing in IC with him attacking Superboy Prime was him from an alternate earth much older as Flash.

Well...the whole Wally being in some unknown dimension explains it I guess. I just did not know Bart took the role as Flash instead of being Kid Flash and that he wore the suit for it now.

Yea yea I know...time to get back to the quotes lol.
