[[folder:DC]]
Franchise/{{Batman}} is memetic enough to [[Memes/{{Batman}} have his own page]].

* Creator/FrankMiller likes "[[SignatureStyle WHORESWHORESWHORESWHORESWHORES]]'''[[http://www.shortpacked.com/comic/whores WHORES]]'''
** This meme comes from ''Webcomic/{{Shortpacked}}'' Thanks again, Shortpacked!
* "Franchise/{{Superman}} is (such) a dick."
** This started with a forum thread about [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] [[Website/SuperDickery comics covers]].
** He's even got a [[{{Superdickery}} trope]] and a [[http://superdickery.tumblr.com tumblr]] named for it.
* "While no one was looking, ComicBook/LexLuthor stole 40 cakes. He took ''forty'' cakes. [[CaptainObvious That's as many as four tens]]. AndThatsTerrible."[[labelnote:Explanation]]From Literature/TheSuperDictionary. See the page image for AndThatsTerrible[[/labelnote]]
** They were ''clearly'' PIES. AndThatsTerrible.
** [[AscendedMeme Ascended]] in [[http://www.themarysue.com/lex-luthor-forty-cakes-comic/ Superman #709]]
* [[Film/SupermanII KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!!!]]
** [[Franchise/{{Superman}} Its]] [[BigBad sheer]] [[KneelBeforeZod epicness]] has elevated it to meme status.
** This meme culminated in a website dedicated to Zod running for president.
* "An Amazon attack. A deadly [[BeeBeeGun bee weapon]]... ''{{Bee|Afraid}}s. [[DullSurprise My]] [[{{Narm}} God.]]''"
** From the 2007 Creator/DCComics miniseries ''ComicBook/AmazonsAttack''.
** And what's funny about that one is that even other characters in the DCU have parodied that line.
** The meme has since become heavily associated with the character Arakune from ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'' who has an incredibly unpleasant attack that involves attacking his opponent with bees.
* Why are there plotholes? Because Superboy-Prime PUNCHED TIME!
** At least that's what DC's [[ContinuitySnarl Infinite Crisis]] tried to tell us.
** [[ComicBook/CountdownToFinalCrisis "I'LL KILL YOU!]] [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment I'LL KILL YOU TO DEATH!"]]
** [[TheyChangedItNowItSucks "Everything was better on ]] ''[[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall my]]'' [[{{Wangst}} Earth!"]]
* [[YouAreTooLate I did it 35 minutes ago]].
** From ''ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}''. [[spoiler: It was TheReveal at the ending which [[SubvertedTrope defied]] the [[BigDamnHeroes conventions of the genre]].]]
** [[ContentWarnings Warning]]: [[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0409459/parentalguide A blue... penis is shown. Never erect though]]
*** Never erect? "So impotent."
** [[InnocentInnuendo Possibly homosexual? Must remember to investigate further]].
*** [[WrittenSoundEffect Hurm]]
*** [[WrittenRoar RRAAAARRL]] (must be spelt ''exactly'' that way).
** MY SON IS A POLICE OFFICER YOU FAGGOTS!
** I'm not locked up in here with you...[[RussianReversal you're locked up in here with me!]]
** :)
* [[ComicBook/CountdownToFinalCrisis Evil Mary Marvel smacking]] [[ComicBook/WonderGirl Donna Troy]] [[GrievousHarmWithABody with]] [[Franchise/GreenLantern Kyle Rayner]]. WHAP WHAP WHAP!
* "Please Help Me Franchise/GreenLantern, I have no arms." * WHAM!*
** Also, Hal Jordan doesn't have yellow as his only weakness. He can easily be waylaid by a [[http://www.flickr.com/photos/dlanod/196059844/in/set-72157594208628528 simple blow]] to the head.
** Also Green Lantern vs THE SIGN
** This meme was brought to you by gratuitous shots of Green Lantern's ass. [[http://hoosierinanity.blogspot.com/2007/12/hal-jordans-butt-forever.html Case in point.]]
** Hal Jordan will fuck ANYTHING! [[TakeAThirdOption See how he dealt with]] [[BodySnatcher Star Sapphire]].
** Related: [[http://www.oafe.net/blog/?p=885 Hal Jordan is a pedophile]].
** Batman punches out Guy Gardner with just ''One Punch''
*** Just after Hal Jordan comes back to life, he gives Batman a taste of ''One Punch'' awesomeness.
** [[WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague For the last time,]] [[ComicBook/BoosterGold I'm]] ''[[BerserkButton not]]'' Green Lantern! If I were, ''[[CaptainObvious my costume would be GREEN!]]''

** [[ClarkKenting You're Green Lantern!]] [[http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101017051539/marvel_dc/images/3/32/Green_Lantern_secret_identity.jpg No, I'm not. 'Bye]]

** [[http://theguacamolelantern.tumblr.com/ Hal Jordan has the IQ of (a) guacamole.]]
** [[WesternAnimation/GreenLanternFirstFlight Shut your mouth, ]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASb3G6QU2tk you stupid little troll!]]
* "'''[[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall I AM A MAN!]]''' ([[TalkToTheFist punch]])"
** Quote from ''Comicbook/SupermanAtEarthsEnd''.[[labelnote:Explanation]]The full context of the quote is that the android Ben Boxer is [[HannibalLecture calling Superman out]] for his [[ThouShaltNotKill no-kill policy]] contributing to [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt the first apocalypse]] (there's been two), and how lethal force is the reality of this BadFuture. Superman [[ShutUpHannibal responds]], "You want reality, Ben? Reality is: ''you'' are an ''android'' - ''I AM A MAN!''", and punches right through Ben's torso.[[/labelnote]] Advocated by [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] as the best way to settle an argument. Yes, even if you're a woman.
** "[[HollywoodScience Of course! Don't you know anything about science?]]" - from one of the [[YouClonedHitler twin clones of Hitler]].
* James Robinson's ''ComicBook/JusticeLeagueCryForJustice'' miniseries quickly developed a meme of fans derisively posting "JUSTICE!" in relation to it, after several characters in the first issue all ended extended monologues by yelling "I want JUSTICE!"
** Also, due to an unfortunate choice of font, it's also been referred to as "[[https://www.reddit.com/r/CrappyDesign/comments/2jl5ek/justice_league_gay_for_justice/ Gay for Justice]]".
** The "Gay for Justice" meme also got appropriated by Alan Scott as of the New 52, where his character was rebooted as homosexual in the series Earth 2. (Coincidentally, both series are written by James Robinson.)
* '''[[ComicBook/BlackestNight FLESH.]]'''
** '''RISE.'''
* "That's right. [[Franchise/TheFlash He]] makes his pants out of GOES FAST."
* "Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!
** "Look! Up in the Sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! [[Franchise/{{Superman}} IT'S SUPERMAN!!]]
** "...fights a never ending battle for truth, justice and the American way!"
** "This looks like a job for Superman."
* Larfleeze sez: MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE!
* [[MadnessMantra ALL IS ONE IN]] [[ComicBook/{{Darkseid}} DARKSEID.]]
** DARKSEID '''''IS.'''''
** [[http://cissie-king.livejournal.com/13838.html Nobody can save you.]]
** ALL HAIL DARKSEID! [[labelnote:Explanation]]As of Nu52, this appears to be the badass creed of Darkseid's forces when they enter battle. First used by Bruutal aka brainwashed Omega Force enhanced Earth 2 Superman. [[/labelnote]]
* [[Franchise/TheFlash I believe in me!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]The motivational mantra of [[IneffectualSympatheticVillain the Rainbow Raider]].[[/labelnote]]
* Snowflame feels no PAIN! (ComicBook/TheNewGuardians)
* [[BringMyBrownPants Pants to be darkened!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]In the infamous ''Series/WonderWoman2011Pilot'', the words repeatedly appear on the screen, as an instruction to the post-production crew. It has since been used for anytime Wonder Woman is depicted as "a bit bonkers". [[/labelnote]]
* Franchise/WonderWoman [[NeckSnap breaking peoples' necks]] a lot is [[MemeticPsychopath commonly thrown]] around. [[labelnote:Explanation]]She's snapped necks however [[NeverLiveItDown not nearly as often]] as the jokes suggest.[[/labelnote]]
* "[[ComicBook/TheFlash Dammit, Barry!]]" [[labelnote:Explanation]]As a reference to Flashpoint, alternate versions of the DCU will be shown, with some variation of that caption.[[/labelnote]]
* "Because Speed Force. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The Speed Force, starting with Geoff Johns' Barry Allen run on ''The Flash'', was more and more used to pull convenient twists and retcons out of the writers' asses. While these were ''somewhat'' explained at first, eventually it reached the point that the Speed Force could just do whatever the writer wanted, often with the flimsiest of logic, at best. This got ''especially'' bad in the TV show.[[/labelnote]]
* "IT WAS ME BARRY!" [[labelnote:Explanation]]Eobard Thawne, aka Professor Zoom, takes EvilIsPetty to new heights by utilizing time travel to go back in time just to make Barry's life miserable. Naturally, this became a joke within a section of the DC fanbase, with Professor Zoom being cast as the ''sole'' cause of everything wrong in Barry's life.[[/labelnote]]
* One ''Franchise/WonderWoman'' issue written by Gail Simone had Diana annoyed by a film loosely based on her. She was made into the daughter of Zeus and made into a StrawFeminist. Panels from this issue tend to get thrown around because just a few years later the New 52 did ''just'' what the issue was making fun of (specifically Diana is Zeus' daughter and the Amazons were initially given AdaptationalVillainy).
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Marvel]]
* [[Franchise/MarvelUniverse Marvel's]] ''Comicbook/CivilWar'' miniseries's catch phrase was "Whose side are you on?", referring to the conflict between ComicBook/CaptainAmerica and ComicBook/IronMan. This spawned a lot of messageboard signatures proclaiming "I'm with Cap", "I'm with Tony", and other, more absurd, choices, such as "I'm with [[SelfDemonstrating/{{Deadpool}} Stupid]]" and [[ComicBook/{{Nextwave}} "We don't care"]].
** For Americans who took it a little [[UsefulNotes/TheAmericanCivilWar too literally]], "I'm with Lincoln," or "I'm with Davis."
** Taking it one step further, with "I'm with [[UsefulNotes/EnglishCivilWar Oliver]]" and "I'm with [[UsefulNotes/TheHouseOfStuart Charles]]" version or "I'm with [[UsefulNotes/SpanishCivilWar Durruti]]" and "I'm with Francisco".
** The Appendix to the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe website had "I'm down with [[Comicbook/HowardTheDuck Howard]]", a CallBack to an earlier "Howard for President" meme.
** [[ComicBook/WorldWarHulk They're all fucked when the Hulk gets back]].
* "[[ComicBook/IronMan Tony Stark]] is everyone." This apparently came about when an Internet denizen asked if anyone had seen him without his mustache. An obliging photoshop revealed that he [[OnlySixFaces looked very much like]] [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Bruce Wayne]], and with glasses, [[Franchise/{{Superman}} Clark Kent]]. From there, it snowballed.
* Tony also has a penchant for building [[Film/IronMan in a CAVE! With a BOX of SCRAPS!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]From the Iron Man movie. The BigBad shouts to his underlings that Tony built his prototype {{Phlebotinum}}... well, see the meme.[[/labelnote]]
* HE/SHE/IT IS A SKRULL! (lesser-used DC variation: It's a White Martian! or It's Clayface! or It's a Skrull! regardless) [[labelnote:Explanation]]From ''ComicBook/SecretInvasion'', where a number of characters were revealed to be... well, Skrulls.[[/labelnote]]
** Even better: ANAL SKRULLS! (What separates them from regular Skrulls is known only to Creator/WarrenEllis.)
** [[TomatoInTheMirror YOU'RE A SKRULL!]]
** And if it isn't a Skrull, it's probably a [[Comicbook/FantasticFour Doombot.]]
** Or it could be Everyman.
* "[[AWizardDidIt It's magic. We don't have to explain it]].", "BONG!" and "Parker Luck" are all memes that spawned from ''ComicBook/OneMoreDay'', ''ComicBook/BrandNewDay'' and comments from Creator/JoeQuesada regarding [[CosmicRetcon the continuity change]].
** Bitches Love Franchise/SpiderMan.
--->'''J.J. Jameson''': I don't need [x], I need pictures -- pictures of Spider-Man!
** Even parodied on ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'', where the Jameson CaptainErsatz is the editor of a ''poetry magazine''. When reminded of this, he demands ''Petrarchan sonnets'' about Spider-Man. Even voiced by Creator/JKSimmons himself.
** In all honesty, Spider-Man really doesn't have many memorable me-[[http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4irVuZamOhA/S7y4NPN-iVI/AAAAAAAAA9M/eDGTL0uIagw/s1600/Blog+Sunday+7feb10+360.jpg OH, WILL YOU SHUT UP!]]
** And here's another meme, courtesy of your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man
** "Spider-Man! Spider-Man! Does whatever a Spider can..."[[labelnote:Explanation]]Lyrics from the [[WesternAnimation/SpiderMan1967 1967 cartoon theme]].[[/labelnote]]
*** "SPIDER-MAN! SPIDER-MAN! RADIO-ACTIVE SPIDER-MAN!..."[[labelnote:Explanation]]Lyrics from the [[WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheAnimatedSeries 1990s theme]], which is a metal update of the 1967 theme, right down to the repeated mention of "radioactive [spider] blood".[[/labelnote]]
** "*THWIP!*"
** "One for J.J.!"
** HowDoIShotWeb (Granted, the phrase originated completely independently of Spidey. The image meme is of him because it's funnier that way.)
** [[WesternAnimation/SpiderMan1967 60s Spider-Man]] [[labelnote:Explanation]] A Spider-Man cartoon from the 60s with tons of exploitable moments due to poor animation + captions = hilarious image macros.[[/labelnote]]
*** 60s Spider-Man is actually Deadpool. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The series is so bizarre that many have joked it was a Deadpool cartoon before the Merc with a Mouth was even a concept.[[/labelnote]]
** Ever since he sold his loving supermodel wife to {{Satan}} in exchange for saving her, it's become something of a dark joke in the fandom that Peter is actually [[{{Squick}} in love with his elderly Aunt May]].
** Spider-Man: Threat or Menace?
* Why are there plotholes? Because the Comicbook/ScarletWitch is messing with her chaos magic again.
** '''Scarlet Witch''': "No more mutants."
* [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks He did it]] [[http://luchins.com/what-were-they-thinking/from-the-same-issue-as-the-last-x-panel/ magnetically]]
* Thanks to Sally Floyd, Website/MySpace had ComicBook/CaptainAmerica killed. By being hit with a UsefulNotes/{{NASCAR}} racecar driven by an ''Series/AmericanIdol'' contestant. And this was uploaded to Website/YouTube. [[http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v336/deetee/bull05.jpg Isn't that right, Sally?]]
* People also had [[HoYay/ComicBooks a lot of fun]] with Captain America's last letter to Iron Man.
** [[http://i56.tinypic.com/wvo9jp.jpg Dammit, Steve.]]
* ComicBook/NickFury's god [[http://img.myconfinedspace.com/wp-content/uploads/tdomf/48095/hammer.jpg has a hammer.]]
* ComicBook/CaptainAmerica's [[LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe shield-toss]] sound effect: "I command you to-- *wank* "
* [[ComicBook/CaptainAmerica "Only one of us is gonna walk out of here under his own steam - and it won't be me!"]]
* Captain HYDRA [[spoiler: aka Steve Rogers/Captain America]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]TheReveal at the end of ''ComicBook/CaptainAmericaSteveRogers'' generated a huge backlash from fans accusing Marvel of turning the beloved American icon and superhero who started off fighting Nazis in World War II into TheMole for HYDRA, a subdivison offshoot of the Nazi regime, the entire time. As a result, fans [[FanNickname nickname him Captain HYDRA]] to better reflect his "true" allegiance[[/labelnote]]
** [[spoiler: ComicBook/TheJoker now has more moral high standards than Steve Rogers.]][[labelnote:Explanation]]After TheReveal that Captain America was TheMole for his life-long enemy, HYDRA, some have taking to pointing out the image in EvenEvilHasStandards from ''ComicBook/BatmanAndCaptainAmerica'', where the Joker is incensed at learning the Red Skull was indeed a Nazi and not faking it as part of a gimmick, and as a result point out that the Joker has more of a moral high ground that Cap.[[/labelnote]]
** The [[TheReveal "Hail HYDRA!"]] scene of [[spoiler: Steve Rogers]] gets a meme to itself with various other characters revealing themselves to be [[http://www.smosh.com/smosh-pit/memes/26-captain-america-hail-hydra-edits-are-hilarious secretly being the thing that goes against their nature]].
* In regards to ComicBook/{{Cyclops}}' EyeBeams ''not'' being heat beams, more just beams of concussive force; "They're '''punches'''! From the '''Punch''' Dimension!"
** Similarly, Wolverine's healing factor is sometimes explained as [[ShapeshifterBaggage obtaining "Meat]] from the [[VideoGame/{{Persona 4}} Meat Dimension]]."
** Thus there is flyclops.
*** By association, when Scott appeared in Comicbook/DarkAvengers and the captions declared him "Cyclops. Leader of the X-Men. Owner of a jetpack.", it got a bit of attention too.
** [[SkywardScream "JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!"]]
** Don't forget Colossus. He isn't made of steel. HE IS MADE OF ''RAGE''!
** "Whoof. Just a moment, not done with 'whoof'."
** And Comicbook/KittyPryde would like to remind you that PROFESSOR XAVIER IS A JERK!
** "Welcome to the X-Men, [[X]]--Hope You Survive the Experience!" First used with Kitty Pryde's debut with the team, it was later used for Havok on the cover of ''Uncanny X-Men'' #219 and the ''Classic X-Men'' reprint of issue 171, amongst other places.
** "To me, my X-Men!" It began as Professor X's CatchPhrase and later was picked up by both people mocking the team and by actual leaders like Cyclops.
* Every hero was [[Franchise/SpiderMan bitten by a radioactive X]] and every villain [[ComicBook/TheJoker fell into a vat of Y]].
* Ever since she defeated ComicBook/{{Thanos}} off-panel, "ComicBook/SquirrelGirl is the most powerful being the Marvel Universe."
* Ha-Ha! Doctor Doom is the MASTER of the world!
** [[http://i.imgur.com/yrdtf.jpg Toot!]]
** [[LargeHam DOOM WOULD BE ABLE TO WRITE IN ALL-CAPS ALL THE TIME IF IT WASN'T FOR THAT ACCURSED RICHAAAARRDDSS!!!]]
* [[http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/wewouldhavewords6.jpg And Thor would have words with thee, Ultron.]]
** [[http://doomz.tumblr.com/post/146504401/iron-man-vs-thor-dr-horrible-vs-captain The hammer doth be his manhood.]]
* You just made [[Comicbook/IncredibleHulk Bruce Banner]] angry. You won't like him when he's angry.
** The term "HULK SMASH!" has spawned similar phrases like [[Series/HellsKitchen "RAMSAY SMASH!"]] or [[Franchise/JamesBond "BOND SMASH!"]]
* ComicBook/ThePunisher:
** [[http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_W1zTZKL45w0/SlnGqZZhp9I/AAAAAAAAAgU/ycP65CYkXzw/s400/punisher4welcomebackpolarbearpunch.jpg He punched a polar bear in the face.]]
** Frank Face.[[labelnote:Explanation]]The nickname given to the surly expression the Punisher (and... [[OnlySixFaces nearly every other character]]) almost always has when drawn by Creator/SteveDillon.[[/labelnote]]
*** Frank the Frank.[[labelnote:Explanation]]Portraying characters with the aforementioned Frank Face as using PokemonSpeak.[[/labelnote]]
** I don't pay taxes.[[labelnote:Explanation]]While watching television, the Punisher utters this phrase; the panel is usually satirically posted to show how "badass" and "hardcore" he is.[[/labelnote]]
** It's a gun, Frank. A gun that shoots swords.[[labelnote:Explanation]]The most notorious of the Punisher's {{Impossibly Cool Weapon}}s[[/labelnote]]
** Where do you live?
*** On the edge.[[labelnote:Explanation]]An infamous exchange in ''ComicBook/ThePunisher2099''.[[/labelnote]]
** I don't need a jet pack--all I need is hate![[labelnote:Explanation]]Another oft-repeated (in [[MadLibsDialogue mad libs]] form) line from the 2099 spin-off.[[/labelnote]]
** [[https://abload.de/img/3gosbx.jpg Not even with a rented dick]].[[labelnote:Explanation]]The Punisher's response to the come-ons of a cannibalistic DaddysLittleVillain. He says this while wearing CoolShades.[[/labelnote]]
* [[AccidentalInnuendo Giant-Size]] Comicbook/ManThing! [[labelnote:Explanation]]From the title of some old Man-Thing comics.[[/labelnote]]
* [[Comicbook/TheSentry "Bob,]] [[HurlItIntoTheSun I want this page thrown into the sun."]]
* [[http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_super/0/40/786185-prv2512_pg5.jpg RESPAWN LOL.]]
** Huh? [[SelfDemonstrating/{{Deadpool}} Do my thoughts still appear in little yellow boxes?]] I'm good. I missed you, little yellow boxes! We're gonna have so much fun together!
** Nice scooter, freak!
*** [[LessEmbarrassingTerm It's a motorbike! It's 100% manly!]]
** {{Shoryuken}}!
*** Yay, now is fighty time, fighty time, blood blood blood!
** I love the smell of 372,844 pancakes in the morning. Smells like victory.
* Here's a definitive one:
--> '''[[Franchise/SpiderMan Mary Jane Watson]]:''' "Face it Tiger, you just hit the jackpot!"
* [[http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?t=275213 Beast being a "war criminal"]] seems to be picking up steam at CBR.
* I do what I want, [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Thor!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]Loki has a [[http://rraaaarrl.tumblr.com/post/11131045513/i-do-what-i-want very childish moment]].[[/labelnote]]
* [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHercules Cool Story Bro]].
* [[Franchise/XMen ADAMANTIUM RAGE!!!!]]
* With the success of the ComicBook/{{New 52}} at DC and ''Comicbook/AvengersVsXMen'' promising big changes, it became popular for a while to claim, whenever Marvel was about to make an announcement, that a ContinuityReboot was just around the corner. Marvel employees actually had to shoot this rumor down several times.
* Cyclops Was Right [[labelnote:Explanation]]Many fans think that Cyclops' thoughts about what the Phoenix Force would do in ''ComicBook/AvengersVsXMen'' was right and ''he'' was right all along -- that mutantkind was to be restored by the Phoenix and that the Avengers' actions were indeed in the wrong. This also paints him as a more martyr-like figure à la the "Magneto Was Right" slogan of long ago. It saw a resurgence in ''ComicBook/DeathOfX'' when the Terrigen mists were released upon the atmosphere and it was discovered that it killing mutants. Cyclops' attempt to render it non-toxic for his mutantkind made him go down in history as the mutant equivalent of ''Hitler''. All for wanting to save people.[[/labelnote]]
* Snortblat [[labelnote:Explanation]]After the new female Thor was announced in 2014, a commenter on themarysue.com suggested that the original Thor be renamed "Snortblat". Site commenters gleefully adopted the new name.[[/labelnote]]
* [Unsolicited opinions on Israel???] [[labelnote:Explanation]]From the short-lived ''Angela, Queen of Hell'', which in one cringeworthy panel replaced things a [[StrawCharacter Strawman MRA]] would say with TropeName-style topic labels.[[/labelnote]]
* "'''HULK SMASH PUNY MEME!!!'''"
** "The madder Hulk gets, THE STRONGER HULK GETS!"
* No matter what team it is, [[WolverinePublicity Wolverine is there]].[[labelnote:Explanation]]From a [[http://chimichanga.co.vu/post/173226884867/rebuilding221b-alliharkness Tumblr thread]] that was initially about the difficulty of fighting the X-men because the lineup is always so volatile. The only constant is Wolverine.[[/labelnote]]
* Marvel Civilians and Canada are evil.[[labelnote:Explanation]]From [[https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/marvel-civilians-how-bad-are-they.417475/ Spacebattles]]Where due to the less than stellar depictions of civilians in Marvel and villains like Sublime who was in charge of the Weapon X Program situated in Canada and [[ComicBook/HouseOfM Neverland, a concentration camp for mutants]] both Canada and Marvel Civilians have been given a less than stellar reputation in Spacebattles and a justification they [[HumansAreBastards they are horrible people who don't deserve to be saved]][[/labelnote]]
* You can't possibly have a crappier life than [[ComicBook/{{Daredevil}} Matt Murdock]]. It's ''[[https://readcomiconline.to/Comic/Daredevil-2019/Director-s-Cut?id=149582#34 officially a tradition]]'' to make his life as horrible as possible.
** Also, don't date him. [[CartwrightCurse You'll die]] Or worse.[[labelnote:Explanation]]Heather and Glorianna were murdered, Elektra and Echo were also murdered but then came back, Milla is stuck in a mental institute, and then there's [[ComimcBook/TyphoidMaryMarvelComics Typhoid Mary]] and the ComicBook/BlackWidow. Kristen, Dakota and Mindy are fine so far, but who knows...[[/labelnote]]
* ''ComicBook/MoonKnight'':
** "Giant fucking bird skull."[[labelnote:Explanation]]Khonshu's more modern appearance.[[/labelnote]]
** "In this issue Moon Knight punches ghosts!"
** Marc's "Mister Knight" persona has become rather memetic thanks to the snazzy, BadassInANiceSuit style it has.
** There exists a popular edited image of Moon Knight walking down some stairs, saying: [[https://i.imgur.com/LoZOSta.jpg "I know you're here, Dracula, you big fucking nerd. Where's my goddamn money?"]] Frequently used by fans of works involving vampires, such as ''VideoGame/{{Castlevania}}''.
*** This eventually ballooned to [[https://i.imgur.com/7uSM5RZ.jpg memetically]] making Dracula Moon Knight's ArchEnemy in spite of the two never, if not barely, interacting. Though considering Dracula is a public domain character and part of the Marvel canon, it's not out of the realm of possibility that eventually we'll get to see Moon Knight canonically confronting Dracula and demand his goddamn money.
** In general, Moon Knight's reputation for being an insane character has led to edits of panels featuring him replacing his dialogue with AxCrazy or {{Cloudcuckoolander}} traits.

[[folder:Newspaper Comics]]
* Lots of people on the Internet consider [[JumpingTheShark the last few years]] of ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}'' to be the blandest, most mediocre comic strip in the newspapers today. Then in January 2006, someone created The Garfield Randomizer, which automatically selected three random panels from the entire ''Garfield'' online archive and mashed them together as a strip, turning it into [[DadaComics Dadaist nonsense]]. [[http://www.truthandbeautybombs.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=4950 It was praised as the funniest thing to happen to ''Garfield'' in years.]] Then Paws, Inc., told the creator to cease-and-desist. In a small measure of revenge, however, the creator made the code publicly available, and a few Garfield randomizers persist to this day (like [[http://www.dougshaw.com/garfield.html this one]]).
** [[http://www.websnark.com/archives/2006/02/would_the_nerma.html Silent Garfield]] was born shortly after the Garfield Randomizer, when [=MackJ=] of the Truth and Beauty Bombs forum pointed out just how surreal ''Garfield'' becomes (and how pathetic Jon really is) when you [[http://www.truthandbeautybombs.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=4997 remove Garfield's thought bubbles.]]
*** This has been taken to the next logical step with [[http://garfieldminusgarfield.tumblr.com/ Garfield Minus Garfield]], which makes it look like Jon is conversing with imaginary playmates. Unlike the randomizer, [[http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/04/03/AR2008040303083.html Jim Davis actually found this one quite entertaining]].
*** Garfield Minus Garfield mashed up with the ''Sad Keanu'' meme [[http://sadkeanu.tumblr.com/post/757283818/garfield-minus-sadness-submitted-by-robconoclast here]].
*** Someone took the Garfield Minus Garfield concept to a great extreme, taking the WesternAnimation/GarfieldAndFriends ChristmasSpecial and editing out Garfield and Odie almost seamlessly. Then you get [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjW8lpvrwYc&feature=related to the ending at 8:30]].
*** In the same spirit as Silent Garfield is [[http://juannavarro.wordpress.com/2007/12/21/realfield-like-lasagna-too/ Realfield]], which replaces Garfield with a silent, photorealistic cat and does a good job of making Jon look pathetic...well, ''more'' pathetic.
*** In a similar vein to Garfield Minus Garfield is [[http://lucy-peanuts.com/ Lucy Peanuts]], which is basically ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}} with everyone removed except for Lucy. Sadly, it got [[OrphanedSeries orphaned]] after about 30 strips.
*** There's also [[http://peanutsminussnoopy.blogspot.com/ Peanuts Minus Snoopy]], which lasted a bit longer.
** Yet another variation is [[Webcomic/OneOverZero Tailsteak's]] [[http://tailsteak.com/arbuckle/ Arbuckle]], in which anyone is invited to redraw a Garfield comic in a different or more realistic art style, again with the thought bubbles removed.
** ''"[[http://www.lasagnacat.com/ Lasagna Cat]]"'' takes the deconstruction even further. Real life strips are acted out in live action. The strip and the its date of publication are shown. The skit is accompanied by a brief music video. (Its the highlight, Post-modernism at its best)
** Go back to bed, Garfield. o_O
** Garfield is so malleable that they did one...''[[http://www.thereverend.com/barfield/pages/barfield001.html just on Garfield barfing]]'' (then fart jokes, then crude sexual humor... sadly, it works) (warning, gross)
** [[http://www.joshmillard.com/garkov/ Garkov]] is Garfield + Markov chains.
** And then there's [[http://www.mezzacotta.net/garfield/ Square Root Of Minus Garfield]], which does a different thing to Garfield with each strip.
*** ''Webcomic/SquareRootOfMinusGarfield'' itself has "They haven't stoppped making frozen pudding pops, have they?"
** "I hate Mondays"
** "I'm putting you on a diet."
** "[[FirstNameUltimatum GARFIELD!!]]"
** "*SPLUT!*"
** "Hello! I'm Nermal, the world's cutest kitten!"
*** "Shut up, or I'll mail you to Abu Dhabi."
** Pooky, Garfield's teddy bear
** Jon's ferns (or any other plants for that matter...)
** Garfield kicking Odie off the table
** There was a strip a few years ago with Garfield eating a banana, then dropping the peel on the floor so that Jon would slip on it. Garfield uttered the line "[[InnocentInnuendo a banana has two uses]]" and internet message boards have had a field day with it ever since.
** None of that matters- [[http://schulzlibrary.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/garfield.jpg It's all just a hallucination as he slowly dies of thirst in an abandoned house]].

** Creator/ImageComics took this to a ridiculous extreme, using their parody posters to promote a fake "Guardians of the Globe" cast including a very thinly disguised Franchise/HarryPotter ("Gary Popper"), [[ComicBook/TheWalkingDead Rick Grimes]] and ''UsefulNotes/BarackObama'' as new members.

* "I say it's spinach, and I say the hell with it."[[labelnote:Explanation]]From a caption penned by Creator/EBWhite for a cartoon by Carl Rose in the December 8, 1928 edition of ''Magazine/TheNewYorker'', which has this as a child's response to being offered broccoli.[[/labelnote]]
** The 1932 Broadway musical ''Face the Music'' had the song "I Say It's Spinach (And The Hell With It)."
** ''Fashion is Spinach'', by New York dressmaker Elizabeth Hawes, began with a paraphrase of the cartoon caption.
** Creator/GeorgeRRMartin, in ''Dreamsongs'': "Fantasy? Science fiction? Horror? I say it's a story, and I say the hell with it."
** ''Supervolcano: Eruption'' by Creator/HarryTurtledove:
--->''Microfiber, my ass,'' Louise thought. ''I say it's polyester, and I say the hell with it.''
** In the oral argument before the Supreme Court in ''National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius'' (2012), Justice Antonin Scalia (echoing a popular argument that had been advanced by a federal judge two years earlier) said that the government "can make people buy broccoli" if it can make them purchase health insurance. Among the many mockeries of this argument (which Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg would refer to as "the broccoli horrible" in her concurring opinion) was the inevitable ''New Yorker'' cartoon by Robert Mankoff: "I say it's government-mandated broccoli, and I say the hell with it."
** From the play ''The Animal Kingdom'' by Philip Barry:
--->'''Franc''': I don't like the spring. I don't like May and the trees in bloom.\\
'''Daisy''': Nor do I. I say it's maple syrup, and I say the hell with it.

** Erma with a crowbar [[labelnote:Explanation]]This meme came out after an incident when a perverted fan asked the author to draw a pin-up of the titular heroine Erma [[ADateWithRosiePalms pleasuring herself with a crowbar]], and refusing to do so. In reality. this came out when some friends of the author decided to joke with him and one of them decided to imitate the stereotypical voice of a perverted nerd asking for this. For some reason, the whole situation became an urban legend inside the Furry Fandom due to the lack of reliable sources in the 80s and 90s and many people claimed that event happened. [[/labelnote]]
** Discussing ways about how to kill [[spoiler:Tavas Ikalik]][[labelnote:Explanation]]During and after the events of the Dornthant sub-arc, many fans were discussing methods to kill [[spoiler:Tavas Ikalik]] as not only he managed to ruin the titular protagonist (and also her family and many other people's) life's for good, but also he managed to [[KarmaHoudini get away with it]].[[/labelnote]]
* Jokes about the ElectricBlackGuy trope and how it's overused in comics are very common.
* Thanks to ''ComicBook/{{Diabolik}}''[='=]s popularity, in Italian media a name that ends in "ik" (sometimes "ika" for female characters) indicates a character that is ''at best'' an AntiHero (such as Disney's [[ComicBook/PaperinikNewAdventures Paperinik]]) if not an outright villain (such as ComicBook/{{Cattivik}}, ComicBook/{{Satanik}}, Chitarrik in the Italian dub of ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug''[[note]]Based on "chitarra", Italian for "guitar". It's the best possible translation of the original name Guitar Vilain (literally "Guitar Villain" in French)[[/note]] and Diabolik himself).
