[goldust40]

Sure you were.

All right, you got me. I got a sound effect from a comic book wrong.

Shirley, 'It's a bird, it's a plane, it's Superman' counts as a great and famous

saying.

 

I'm also a fan of Stan's folksie 'face front true believer'.

[TheShadowKnows]

I was always partial to that totally awesome panel in the Wolverine Limited Series where he's fighting The Hand and he says (if I recall correctly)

 

"They we're good...

 

..I'm the best."

 

Standing over a bunch of bodies. I like that better than his "I'm the best at what I do..." line.

 

He's wasn't talking grammar, obviously.

 

Well, he was coming off a berserker rage.

It's not a saying, it's a catchphrase or tagline.

Welcome to the X-Men... Hope you survive the experience

From a movie this time, not the comic, but a classic line just the same;

 

"To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the vimen."

 

[Dr. Balls]

No love for: "Oh my stars and garters?"

[Fedoraman]

So in other words there are no great sayings attributed to comic books.

 

Wrong.

I see.

 

In that case I suppose you could add the following.

 

"Snikt"

 

"Baaanff"

 

"Looks like we won".

 

"Say your prayers, hero!"

 

"Super-hero vs. Super-Villain! Only one shall survive!"

 

"Holy Moley"

 

"Sockamagee!"

 

"Fonebone"

 

"Potrezebie"

 

"Is that all you've got"?

 

"Up, up and away"

 

"Is it a bird etc."

 

"Trapped in world he never made"

 

"O Bitter Victory"

 

"The Dismal Dregs Of Defeat"

 

"Face it tiger, you just hit the jackpot"

 

"It's kicking in".

 

"I shall be a creature of the night, terrible, I shall be a bat". (probably borrowed from gothic lit).

 

Memes aren't great sayings, no matter how widespread their usage.

 

Although they are obviously memorable.

 

THWIP!!!

[Whizzer]

It's clobberin' time.

 

 

Trapped in a world he never made.
