Great Comic Book Exclamations!!

Don_Draper · October 30, 2003, 7:26pm

How many comic book / superhero catchphrases can we come up with? I don’t mean nicknames like “Your friendly neighbofhood Spider-Man”, but frequent utterances by the characters. I’ll do the most obvious ones:

Great Krypton! (Superman)

Up, up, and away! (Superman)

Great Hera! (Wonder Woman)

Sufferin’ Sappho! (Wonder Woman)

Avengers Assemble! (Captain America, or whoever is the leader of the team at the time)

It’s clobberin’ time! (the Thing)

Flame on! (the Human Torch)

Shazam! (DC Captain Marvel)

You just can’t beat “Sockamagee!” (Robby in Dial H for Hero)


And speaking of "Great Caesar's ghost!"...

On this week's SMALLVILLE, a younger Perry White is condescending to the S'ville sheriff, calling her "Chief"...

She tells him to get out of town, adding "And don't call me 'Chief"!"  :)
