** "It is imperative that you pay attention at this time..."

* ''[[Secret Warriors]]:'' HAIL HYDRA

** [[Deadpool]]'s sidekick Bob:Agent of Hydra will also spout this and other propaganda such as,"HAIL HYDRA! Cut off one limb and two more shall take its place"

** "To me, my [[X-Men]]"! - Charles Xavier, though Cyclops booted him from a leader position due to [[Super Dickery]] and has been using it recently.

** Wolverine has "I'm the best there is at what I do, but what I do isn't very nice."

*** "Oh my stars and garters."

*** "Yes, oh fearless leader." (usually followed by Cyclops saying "Why do you keep calling me that?")

** And referring to himself as "the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing" and "the idol o' millions."

** Then there's his oft-mentioned "sweet Aunt Petunia" (no connection to the other, considerably un-sweet Aunt Petunia). She eventually appeared in person, and in defiance of expecations it turns out she's an attractive young woman. Presumably there's some big age-gaps in the Grimm family...

** The Torch has "Flame on!"

** Doctor Doom has several variations of the cry '''[[Say My Name|RRRRRIIIIIICCCHHHH]][[Arch Enemy|AAAAAAARRRRDDSSS!!!]]'''

* Parodied in ''[[Runaways]]''. Victor believes the group should have a catchphrase and begins spouting out all the Marvel character's famous lines. Niko informs him that their catchphrase is "[[Try Not to Die]]."

** They also have "Runaways, run away!"

* [[Wonder Woman]], in the old days, would say "Suffering Sappho!" This was writer Charles Moulton's tongue-in-cheek [[Take That]] to [[Moral Guardians]] who claimed she was secretly a lesbian. Nowadays she is more likely to say "Great Hera!"

* Nexus would occasionally say, "This calls for hyper-speed!" The first time he said it, the comic's letters page had readers complaining it was corny, and Mike Baron had to point out it was supposed to be a ''joke.''

*** In tribute to Nexus, [[Chris Claremont]] character Joyboy would occasionally cry, "Vootie!" in between [[The Unintelligible|unintelligible babble]].

* German detective ''[[Nick Knatterton]]'': "Kombiniere..." ("[I] deduce ...")

** His sometime associate Misty Knight, in her position as the current coordinator of the Heroes for Hire, now has "Hello, hero. This is Control. Are you for hire?"
