* In the Marvel and DC Comics crossover ''[[JLA-Avengers]]'', [[Superman]] says to [[The Mighty Thor]], "Tell yourself that, Mister... Ease yourself to sleep at night while you let your world go to '''hell'''! Where I come from, though, '''''LIVES MATTER'''''!" When Thor tries to bring Mjolnir on his head, Superman ''catches'' the hammer, causing an astonished Thor to react, "Odin's beard! How ''can'' you...? The mightiest... mightiest in Nine Worlds cannot..." Superman retorts, "S-sorry... sorry to disappoint... but in... my world, it looks like the dials '''''GO UP TO ELEVEN'''''!" and crushes Thor with a roundhouse punch, knocking him out cold. This caused [[Flame War|a LOT of controversy]] among comic book fans, [[Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment|which fortunately we won't duplicate here.]]
