History Awesome / SecretSix

* Katrina Armstrong thinks she can easily outmaneuver the "tired" Amanda Waller to become a new black ops master. Waller runs circles around her before having Katrina framed for treason and making it clear Katrina was never even in Waller's league.

* Volume 4 has Lady Shiva fight Strix in single combat. As Shiva's page indicates, most other martial artists are straight-up shown to be Shiva's inferior, needing to surprise Shiva to even land a punch. Strix breaks Shiva's arm, marking them as near-equals.

* During the Hell story arc, Liana, Scandal's girlfriend, has been kidnapped by a nutjob former client called Randall who plans to "deprogram" her. One of his methods includes pouring hot sauce into her eyes, which he also did to himself in the first part. The thing is, Liana will not break. Oh sure she cries, but she won't admit she's a horrible person, or a sinner, just to please this psychopath. She even tells him off in the middle of it, saying he's not fit to breath the air of the sex workers he so vehemently believes are evil. And when the Six finally save her, and give her the choice of ending Randall's miserable life, Liana says "no". Because even if Randall doesn't have a relationship with God, she does. [[spoiler:Of course, that doesn't stop Scandal from killing him as soon as Liana's out of sight.]]

** Doubles as a take that by Gail Simone towards everyone who's forgotten how smart and powerful Bane truly is, viewing him only as dumb muscle.

---> Talia: His presence... for a moment he reminded me of a very great man.

* When the Secret Six was first put together in ''Villains United'' they were nothing more than a group of C and D-List villains and two LegacyCharacters no one took seriously or cared about. By the last issue of the series, practically every A and B-List superhero has been called in to stop them. '''DAMN'''.
** The opening pages to Villains United which shows a montage of different supervillains agreeing to join the Society, only for the final panel to show Catman saying "No". Dr Psycho is furious at the refusal, stating that they cant have CATMAN of all people turn them down. Catman basically tells him to fuck off. Talia Al Ghul is impressed with his transformation, instantly thinking of Batman.

*** She isn't merely inpressed. It is clear that in that moment Blake reminds her of Batman himself and she is in awe that the joke of a villain has become someone to rival The Bat.

* Jeannette "persuading" Cheshire to give her the antivenin to the poison she put in the Six's meals... by dangling her off the roof of her casino, flinging her into a mirror, and then threatening to start the torture by putting broken glass in her eyes.

* Jeannette's one-on-one fight with WonderWoman in ''Depths'', until she unleashes her BrownNote power, causing the Amazon Princess to experience Jeannette's botched execution and leaving her a foaming-at-the-mouth heap on the ground. Again, ''Wonder Woman''.

* Catman taking down Captain Nazi during the Six's imprisonment and torture by the Society. Keep in mind, Captain Nazi is a high-tier supervillain who's gone toe to toe with CaptainMarvel. How does Catman take him down? [[EyeScream Jabs a handful of syringes full of pain-enchancing drugs in his eyes]]. Before that, he also beat the TortureTechnician the Crime Doctor into a coma with a metal table.

* Scandal Savage travelling to hell itself to rescue her lover. Doubles as a CrowningMomentofHeartwarming too.

* When the Six go to break Tarantula out of Alcatraz, Catman takes on the job of distracting Franchise/{{Batman}} long enough for them to get away with it. A fight predictably breaks out and they fight on even terms for quite some time before Catman decides he's done enough and the two of them just call it off. We repeat: Catman fought on even terms with '''Batman!'''

* Parademon suicide bombing a group of the Society's heavy hitters using a bunch of Father Boxes he's picked off New Genesis soldiers he's killed, killing a few of them and burning Captain Marvel-villain Sabbac to a crisp.

-->'''Jeannette''': I don't care about your brat, girl. I care about your ''manners''.

* Issue 23. The team is kidnapped and put on an island so a "Presidents' Club" can [[HuntingtheMostDangerousGame hunt them down]]. The team then shows the Presidents' Club exactly how much they've underestimated them.

* The Mad Hatter single-handedly taking down the DoomPatrol in ''Six Degrees of Devastation''.
