Line 39:
'''Stephanie''': Oh, man. I can't beat you at anything. }}
** The History of the Bat Family by [http://scans-daily.dreamwidth.org/2520827.html?#cutid1 Stephanie].
* [[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 Thethe 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.
Line 170:
'''Boomer''': (''[[Double Take]], then grin'') Explain. And do ''not'' leave out ''any'' [[Girl-On-Girl Is Hot|details]].<br />
'''Supergirl''': (''hits him with a pillow'') Idiot. Another hero in a costume. }}
* In an early issue of ''[[Young Justice (Comic Bookcomics)|Young Justice]]'', Bart Allen takes a blow to the head and thinks he's Batman. The [[Adam West]] [[Batman (TV series)|Batman]].
** Robin asks him to vibrate at high speed to become intangible. Amnesiac Impulse tries to comply... with spasms.
{{quote| '''Robin''': I ask for vibration, he gives me epileptic seizures.}}
** In another issue, after [[Superboy]] has [[Brought Down to Normal|lost his powers]], Impulse tries to come up with creative ways to give him new powers, each having their own [[Mythology Gag]]. These include [[Spider -Man|putting a (non-radioactive) spider in his food]], [[Captain America|putting "super-soldier syrup" in his drink]], and [[The Flash|dousing him in chemicals and blasting him with electricity]].
** In one of their first missions together, Superboy [[Lampshade|Lampshades]] that he and Robin are more like [[Parental Substitute|Impulse's parents]] than his teammates. Robin slyly says he knows which one of them is the "mom" to which Superboy violently replies:
{{quote| '''Superboy''': Oh no! It's not me! I'm not the mom! I am NOT the MOM!}}
** [[Two Words: Obvious Trope|Two words]]: [[Meaningful Name|Mighty]] [[Gag Boobs|Endowed]].
{{quote| '''Robin''': Wow. She's certainly got '''huge'''...[[Monty Python and The Holy Grail|tracts of land]].<br />
'''Impulse''': We're supposed to fight '''her?'''<br />
Line 182:
'''Mighty Endowed''': I see you up there, trembling in fear!<br />
'''Superboy''': This isn't fear! It's anticipation! }}
** Impulse, Superboy, and Ray all [[Leaning Onon the Fourth Wall|complain about how "their" comics got canceled]]. Enter Robin who cheerfully asks them what they're talking about. All of them just glare at him.
* The story "[[Justice League of America|JLA]]: World Without Grownups": Superboy, Impulse, and Robin are put into simulations that mimic their deepest fears. Superboy faces off with Metallo, Impulse faces [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot|Nazi dinosaurs]] and Gorilla Grodd, and Robin is faced with a combination of [[Silence of the Lambs|Hannibal Lecter]] and [[The Joker]]. Robin figures out that they need to switch off since the simulations are geared to defeat each of them. Thus, Superboy beats Grodd while Robin beats Metallo. Robin then [[Oh Crap|belatedly realizes that he left Impulse with the Hannibal-Joker]]...only to find that Impulse managed to drive the Hannibal-Joker crazy by asking him [[Broken Record|"Why?" over and over again]]!
* [[Gail Simone]]'s run on ''[[Wonder Woman]]'' manages to deliver at least one of these every issue, often involving the mutant albino gorillas that accepted Diana as their leader. The issue they first appear in has them hanging around in her apartment and looking at her magazines while their leader apologizes for the "flinging incident" while saying that it was due to poor judgment.
Line 203:
* The otherwise completely unfunny first issue of the ''Venom'' storyline has this: Batman, blaming himself for the death of a kidnapping victim, continues attempting to fight crime after injuring his shoulder and going three days without sleep. This leads to him be battered by a pair of ordinary thugs. He wakes up in bed to hear Alfred deliver this line:
{{quote| '''Alfred''': I told the physician who reassembled you that you fell from a hot air balloon onto a picnic table full of cheese blintzes. *beat* The story was too ludicrous to be disbelieved.}}
* ''[[Batman: No MansMan's Land]]'':
** The first thing The Joker does once he and Harley decide to leave Arkham is go to the local baseball stadium and recruit some new talent. Harley leads the team in prayer: [[A God Am I|"Joker is God."]]
** Bruce Wayne shamelessly hitting on Luthor's [[Battle Butler|chauffeur]], Mercy:
Line 242:
* The opening narration of the ''[[DC One Million]]: Chronos'' issue describes the crimes future Flash has stopped while patrolling Metropolis.
{{quote| "After stopping a runaway Silverale transport from veering into pedestrian traffic, he delivered twins to a pregnant mother caught in the chaos of a Bizarro Pride parade. At the Bismollan Embassy, he prevented an assassination attempt by a Durlan extremist disguised as tiramisu."}}
** Even more [[Hilarious in Hindsight]], because that means [[Portal (Video Gameseries)|the cake was a lie.]]
** [[The Legion of Super Heroes|Justice Legion L's]] issue has them pursuing Agent If, a [[Reality Warper]] terrorist whose power works by saying sentences that start with "if." He uses his power to enter the United Planets' artificial sun in order to destroy it, Titangirl, who's just a psychic projection, confronts him:
{{quote| '''Agent If:''' Titangirl! How can you be here? All right...all right...you're dead! No! If you're dead...then...something. Anything. '''WHY AREN'T YOU DEAD?!'''<br />
