11* “We are the Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles. We strike hard, and fade away… into the night.”
12* Matt Wagner’s ComicBook/{{Grendel}}s have this Oath of Obedience (taking at least one riff from one of the other {{Badass Creed}}s on this page):
13-->“With Orion’s sword the hunter arose and conquered the world with fury and grace\
14In him was I born, in him shall I die, in him shall I lose name, station and face\
15Death over weakness, death over despair, death over personal gain\
16Death over dishonor, death over undeath, death over the fire with no flame\
17All this I pledge thee O Grendel, Great Khan, to serve and protect over death’s endless tide\
18With your word in my heart, your eyes in my face and your tooth in my hand, by my side”\
19''Vivat Grendel!''
20* [[ComicBook/TheTransformersLastStandOfTheWreckers The Wreckers]] from ''ComicBook/TheTransformersIDW'':

23* ''ComicBook/UsagiYojimbo'': “A Ninja’s duty in life is death!”
24* [[ComicBook/{{Preacher}} Jesse Custer]] learned his from his father, cribbed from Creator/JohnWayne;
25-->'''John Custer''': ''Don’t take no shit off fools. Judge a person by what’s in ‘em, not how they look. An’ you do the '''right thing'''. Be one of the good guys. ‘Cause there’s way too many of the bad.''
26* Frank Drake of the Nightstalkers distills the entirety of Silver Age Superhero philosophy into four words. Do good. Fight evil.
27* Archie Adventure Hero ''The Fly'' featured this promise: I, the Fly, do solemnly swear that nothing shall keep me from fulfilling my sacred vow… to erase crime from the face of the earth!
28* In the ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' series, but most commonly [[ComicBook/SonicTheHedgehogArchieComics the Archie comics]], there’s always a Badass Creed used to summon upon the power of one of the emeralds, usually the Master Emerald, for a specific request, usually along the lines of “The servers are the seven chaos emeralds, chaos is power, enriched by the heart. The controller is the one who unifies the chaos.” followed by the request. The badass-ness of this is shown in its full height at the end of the Enerjak arc, as Knuckles and Doctor Finitevus both channel the energy of the Master Emerald and prepare to strike the other down with one energy charged punch, in a way that seems to invoke the feeling of a battle between Hal Jordan and Sinestro.
29-->'''Knuckles:''' The servers are the seven chaos…\
30'''Finitevus:''' The servants are the seven chaos…\
31'''Knuckles:''' Chaos is power, enriched by the heart…\
32'''Finitevus:''' Chaos is power, controlled by my will…\
33'''Knuckles:''' The controller exists to unify the chaos!\
34'''Finitevus:''' The controller exists to enslave the chaos!

37-->'''The Phantom:''' I swear to devote my life to the destruction of piracy, greed, cruelty, and injustice, in all their forms, and my sons and their sons shall follow me.
38* The Evronian Empire's motto in ''ComicBook/PaperinikNewAdventures'' is simple but effective.
39-->[[AC:Might and Power!]]
40** The full version given in the reboot ''Pikappa'' by WarriorPoet Zarthas reads as follows: "Might and Power, Limitless Fear, This is our essence, this is our only purpose."
