Line 24: == Comic Books == * In issue #709 of [[Superman ~~[http://cdn.gs.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/lexluthor40cakes-superman709.jpg~~]], a flashback reveals Lex Luthor was placed in detention for~~, you guessed it,~~... cake thievery.] Forty of them, in fact. [[Trope Namers\|And that's terrible~~. [[Ascended Meme\|''Terribly awesome''~~]]. * In Jeff Smith's re-make of ''[[The Monster Society Ofof Evil]]'', starring [[Captain Marvel]], there's a scene where it's explained Dr. Sivana doesn't want to destroy the machines made by Mr. Mind, only to capture and sell them to the army so he can get rich. Upon hearing this, Tawky Tawny helpfully exclaims for the audience, "War profiteering! That is immoral-- and illegal." ~~Considering that the book had a wide age appeal and most 7 year olds don't have a clear understanding of war profiting this could be [[Justified Trope\|justified]].~~ ** War profiteering might be a hard concept for kids to understand, but this is [[Evil Genius\|Dr. Sivanna]] we're talking about here. * Parody version [http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/497/adrianveidtkilledmillio.jpg here]. Spoilers for ''[[Watchmen (comics)\|Watchmen]]''. * [[Played for Laughs]] in [[Scott Pilgrim]]: * {{quote\|"~~[[Scott Pilgrim\|~~Gideon]] stole the [[Power of Love]]! What a dick!"}} : "What a dick." is repeated after Gideon {{spoiler\|stabs Ramona}}. * From the ''[[Doom (Comic Book)\|Doom Comic]]'' we get the immortal line "Now I'm radioactive! That can't be good!" == Films ==
