Line 23:
* Often employed in [[Grant Morrison]]'s ''[[Doom Patrol]]''—the Scissormen speak in nonsense phrases, the Men from N.O.W.H.E.R.E. speak in sentences that are expansions of that acronym, and so on.
** The Scissormen's speech is made even better by the fact that they speak in gibberish and anagrams simultaneously.
* Blindfold, from the [[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]], speaks rather oddly, usually by putting too many polite phrases in her speech, and when referring to locations when using her psychic powers.
** It doesn't help that half the time {{spoiler|she's talking to her invisible friend Cipher}}
* The 2011 ''[[Teen Titans (Comic Book)|Teen Titans]]'' revamp featured Thrice, a team of three metahuman brothers with powers that involve merging into one body and splitting apart. The combined form always uses first person ''and'' first person plural pronouns, possessives, etc., referring to "I/We", "me/us", and so on.
