Like a Badass Out of Hell/Quotes

Emperor Mateus: "But this is not the end. As long as Chaos lives, so will we...I shall return to rule again!"
Firion: "You mean...back from the dead?!"
Emperor:"Indeed...from the depths of hell, to this world once more...I will be...back again!

I caught a glimpse of heaven once. The Angels showed me. The idea was I'd kill for them. Clean up their mistakes on Earth. Eventually redeem myself.
Tried it. Didn't like it. Told them where to stick it. So they brought me up to heaven, to see what I'd be missing. A wife. A son. A daughter. I hadn't seen them since they bled out in my arms. Then I was cast down.
Back to a world of killers. Rapists. Psychos. Perverts. A brand new evil every minute, spewed out as fast as men can think them up. A world where pitching a criminal dwarf off a skyscrapper to tell his fellow scum you're back is a sane and rational act. The angels thought it would be hell for me.

[Said dwarf hits the ground with a splat] But they were wrong.

Marco: Looks like I'm not ready to cross to the other side yet.
The Grim Reaper: Fool! Do you realize what you're trying to do? 28 fractured bones, 43 internal wounds. Your organs will never heal properly. Your body is completely destroyed. Returning now just means suffering the pain of death once again. If things go wrong, you won't even make it back to your body. Then your soul will be trapped between realms forever.

Marco: Like I give a shit!

—King of Thorn

Black Mage: I'm dead, so this is some kind of egoscopic projection of my self?

Lord of Hell: I have the entire legions of Hell at my command.

They knew I held the truth. I learned it from Baal, Archduke of Seventh Circle and Berith, Grand Marquis of Plains of Regret.(...) Lords of lower orders. Known to you mortals as Hell. Thet's where I've been. I held the shinning Soulcutter blade in my hand and cut down the damned like wheat to seize my throne. But I gave all that up. To come back. And rescue you.

—Puck Alpha Flight vol.4 #2

Back from the furious / Slaughter and pain
Trapped in this universe / Completely insane
No more confusion inside his head / Travelled through darkest hell

He's back from the dead / Straight back from hell

—Back from the Dead, Dream Evil

He is my provider as I walk into the
Void for eternity I give him my soul
I shall do his bidding obey him
Without question even walk among the living if
I'm told
Satan don't forsake me I wait for
You to take me grant me wings and as

Your messenger I'll fly

—Bridge of Death, Manowar
