Top 15 Comic Book Catchphrases

by the YMB Staff

1. "Sweet Holiday Season!"
Luke Cage, in Heroes for Hire #2, replacing his "Sweet Christmas!" catchphrase with something more inclusive.


2. "Stop laughing at my little Dick!"
Batman to the Joker in issue #127 (as the Joker laughed menacingly at Robin).


3. "Not in the face! Not in the face!"
Aquaman, in Aquaman #34, while being punched in the face.


4. "I am the Law!"
Judge Dredd in one of those comics Americans have never read but nod and pretend they did when talking to British comic fans. He was that guy Sylvester Stallone played in that movie. With the helmet.


5. "Stupid, stupid rat creatures"
If you're a big Bone fan, then you know where this quote comes from. If you're a big, throbbing, Bone fan.

...

Bone.


6. "This psychic knife is the focused totality of my psychic abilities!"
Psylocke, while fighting Magneto in X-Men #17. Right after Rogue had said "I dare not touch someone, less Ah absorb their powers and memories, sugah." And before Storm said "Goddess!" And then Colossus said "By the White Wolf!"


7. "Not like this!"
Hawkeye ...on his wedding night with Mockingbird. From the flashback in West Coast Avengers #23

Nightcrawler regarding his love Amanda Sefton in Uncanny X-men #237.


10. "By the Whore-y Hosts of Hoggoth!"
Dr. Strange, in the classic 70s story "The Hoggoth's Swingers Party" in Strange Tales #43.


11. "By Hera, I could humiliate you worse than if you were caught f*&king a pig in the middle of the town square!"
Wonder Woman to Cheetah, Wonder Woman #43


12. "In brightest day, in blackest night, No evil shall escape my sight, Let those who worship evil... yadda yadda yadda."
Shortened, hipper 90s version of Green Lantern oath introduced in 1998 in Green Lantern #105 during Seinfeld's heyday.


13. "I'm the best there is at what I do..."
Rick Jones, in the Incredible Hulk #4, right before breaking out his harmonica.

Howeird Deen, AKA the vile Doctor Vermont, in issue #4 of "Liberality for All".
