Line 15:
* [[Lucifer (Comic Book)/Funny|Lucifer]]
* [[One Hundred Bullets (Comic Book)/Funny|One Hundred Bullets]]
* [[Preacher (Comic Book)/Funny|Preacher]]
* [[The Sandman (Comic Book)/Funny|The Sandman]]
* [[Superman Birthright/Funny|Superman Birthright]]
Line 41:
* [[Suicide Squad]]. For such a serious comic, it had its fair share of these. C'mon, the image of people the caliber of Lois Lane, Amanda Waller and half the Squad, including serious heavy hitters such as Vixen, Bronze Tiger and Nemesis getting the [[Pie in The Face|pie in the face]] is simply too much to ignore. And then they kick the prankster, Captain Boomerang, on a desert island. And when Waller congratulates herself for finally getting rid of Boomerang, [[Running Gag|another pie hits her face]].
** The entirety of the issue where Doctor Light is sent to Hell, and is resurrected. Only to find himself still in the coffin with no way out. And so again to Hell with him. Or the first Doctor Light reviving and getting out of his grave still halfway decomposed, trying to be a hero, only to get beaten up and destroyed by the fundie family he tried to "save". And again Arthur Light when he gets yet another chance to get out (possessing the female Doctor Light for a while before being kicked out and humiliated yet again), and begs Waller for a job... to find her dismissing him and suggesting he find a job with the [[Justice League of America|Justice League]].
** And of course, they have to return for Boomerang. In the time they've left him in the island he's built a huge boomerang out of materials he's found in the island. Just to prove [[What an Idiot!|how much of an idiotic idea]] it was, Vixen sets off the launching mechanism for the boomerang. [[Captain Obvious|It crashes in a huge rock seconds after being launched]]. The formerly boasting Boomerang returns to his bootlicking persona moments after a priceless scene.
** Captain Boomerang again. In the first issues, he wasn't above trying to spin the Suicide Squad program so he could get a fancy house outside Belle Reve and time at his leisure so he could commit crimes freely with the Mirror Master equipment. Unfortunately, for him, he got caught... as Mirror Master. He thought at the time he was being confused with the original Mirror Master, Sam Scudder, when he got drafted by Waller into the Squad... ''again''. During a graveyard stakeout in which the team was attacked by zombies and steadily zombified, Boomerang made repeated, and miserable, attempts to keep switching between Mirror Master and Boomerang. Until the lights went on, and the whole charade was revealed: it was all a setup to humiliate him - ''and'' inform him he had lost all privileges... including voluntary stay in the Squad.
*** And when he got slapped with the explosive wristband of the Squad as Mirror Master, Boomerang had to conceal it, as he technically was assumed to be a loyal agent who didn't need it. He hid it under an arm cast.
Line 57:
'''Paco''': ''Wow. She's...''<br />
'''Alberto Reyes''' (Jaime's dad): ''the reason I never have to raise my voice.'' }}
** And of course: Eclipso trying to unleash Jaime's [[Super -Powered Evil Side]] [http://asylums.insanejournal.com/scans_daily/867579.html to kill Paco]:
{{quote| '''Eclipso''': ''I'll make it special for you. [[Badass Boast|I am wrath. I am temptation. I deliver to each their own, fitting, perfect destruction]]. I will release Jaime Reyes' deepest, darkest fantasies of ultimate power. You will die at the hand of your greatest friend! Witness the '''monster within the [[Blue Beetle]]!'''''<br />
'''Jaime''': ''I... am... a '''{{spoiler|dentist}}!'''''<br />
Line 80:
'''Hal''': Oh you've got to be ''kidding me''. }}
** [http://dcu.blog.dccomics.com/2010/12/22/celebrate-an-orange-christmas-with-larfleeze/#comments ORANGE LANTERN COOKIES.]
*** The cover, with that [[Buffy -Speak|orange blob thing]] wearing novelty reindeer antlers and rocking out on electric guitar!
* Issue 51 of Superman/Batman. All of it. But especially the [[Memetic Mutation|Goshdarned Batman]].
** Now that scans_daily is kaput, maybe you can give us some specifics?
Line 114:
'''Belinda''': I was trying to give a big, villainous speech, but apparently you're too busy being ''[[My Future Self and Me|two people]]'' and having a [[Cool Horse|horse]] to let me do that. }}
* Most Excellent Superbat (an in-universe Japanese Batman takeoff) in ''[[Final Crisis]]'' #6:
{{quote| '''Superbat''': ''I have the greatest power of all, Mister Miracle. [[Screw the Rules, I Have Money|I am so rich I can do anything.]]''}}
** How rich is he? {{spoiler|he just bought ''Japan''.}}
* Superman playing Santa Claus is nothing new. But [http://scans-daily.dreamwidth.org/1317677.html#cutid1 Batman getting involved] is something special. Also, "I suppose I should do something about that whole Middle East thing..."
Line 146:
** "He's not '''dead'''. Just unconscious. '''Extremely''' unconscious."
*** Made even more funny by a much later future JLA issue that recounts the events afterwards, in which it is revealed [http://i39.tinypic.com/4ic1ht.jpg Batman had bragged about it to Superman and Wonder Woman.]
* [[Martian Manhunter]] #24 from start to finish. Booster Gold and Blue Beetle hide all the [[Bland -Name Product|Choco]] cookies in JLI headquarters, as well as the surrounding area. [[Hulking Out|Mayhem]] [[Hilarity Ensues|ensues]].
** After he cools down and is convinced he has a problem, J'onn exorcizes a physical manifestation of his addiction from himself. The craving-creature latches on to various other league members, revealing a sample of their cravings. In particular, Ice laments not being able to indulge in a sautéed baby seal since leaving her homeland.
* When [[Superboy]] discovers that [[Lex Luthor]] was one of his gene donors, he begins to angst that he might turn evil when he grows up.
