1It's like ''Theatre/TheOddCouple'' to the power of seven.
2
3! Blackest Night
4* Hal Jordan shoving Larfleeze's snout into the Orange Lantern Battery in order to force him to shut up and recharge his ring to 100,000% percent.
5* Hal and Barry having a fun discussion on masks that leads to an open shot on ClarkKenting.
6-->'''Hal''': Clark hides behind a pair of glasses and you're worried about me?
7-->'''Barry''': Clark slouches, drops his voice an octave and wears suits two sizes too large.
8* Black Lantern Martian Manhunter would ''really'' like people to remember he's as powerful as Superman.
9* Alex [=DeWitt=] returning in a refrigerator, with a Black Lantern magnet on the door. Then MoodWhiplash sets in as she pulls Kyle into the fridge and forces him to see her murder, with him in Major Force's role.
10** Bonus points: /co/ had a Black Lantern Fridge as a running gag for a while.
11* Barry punching the resurrected (and rejuvenated) [[spoiler:Captain Boomerang]] [[http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/610/21542145.png in the face is just hilarious, as is his "spaz-out" when he sees all the resurrected heroes and villains.]]
12* BlackComedy: A "deleted scene" shown in "Untold Tales of Blackest Night" has the Rainbow Raiders, a team based on arguably the lamest member of the Flash's Rogues, deciding to drink poison so they can be resurrected as these unstoppable Black Lanterns. The comic shows their bodies lying on the floor...and nothing happens. That's right, ''no one'' cares about these guys enough for the Black Lantern rings to go after them so these idiots [[AllForNothing killed themselves for no reason.]]
13* The end of Larfleeze vs. Luthor. "Victory is '''''mine''''', baldy! And if you had any hair, I'd take that '''''too'''''!"
14** Screw the ''end'' of it. How did Larfleeze knock out Luthor? ''Throwing the Orange Power Battery at the back of Luthor's bald head in the middle of his dramatic speech.''
15** Furthermore:
16-->'''Larfleeze:''' ''(throws an unconscious Luthor at the other Lanterns' feet)'' ''Here!'' He's from ''your'' world. Dispose of this hairless thief!
17-->''({{Beat}}; we can see some of the others look fairly amused)''
18-->'''Larfleeze:''' What? What's so funny?
19-->'''Carol Ferris:''' You '''do''' realize what you've just done, don't you, Larfleeze?
20-->'''Sinestro:''' You finally '''gave''' someone something, you ridiculous rodent.
21-->'''Larfleeze:''' ''(confused)'' I didn't... You...
22* Related, when Luthor was being restrained by Star Sapphire Wonder Woman using the Lasso of Truth:
23-->'''Orange Lantern Lex Luthor:''' The t-truth... What I really want... Is to be Superman.
24-->'''Star Sapphire Wonder Woman:''' ...of course you do.
25* Deadman possesses Jason Blood to get Etrigan to use his firepower to save Red Robin and Batman. Being possessed, Etrigan has no recollection of the possession and once Red Robin and Batman are safe and Deadman leaves, he finds himself suddenly surrounded by zombies. His indignation as he stomps off in disgust is priceless:
26-->Why have I been summoned here? What has that fool, Blood, put me in the middle of?\
27Hands off me, vile creatures!\
28The varied abominations this city regurgitates puts even hell to shame.
29* At the end of everyone reciting their own Lantern creeds, Larfleeze simply goes "Eh?"
30* Any time Larfleeze is flaunting his power or exhibiting his pure avarice only for the Black Lanterns to show up:
31--> '''Larfleeze:''' Yuh-oh....
32** Every other line of dialogue he utters after this counts too. Like when Hal Jordan creates a huge green STOP sign, and Larfleeze whispers:
33--> '''Larfleeze:''' "Now what does that say? I never learned to read..."
34* When Flash and Hal team up to combat the zombiefied ComicBook/MartianManhunter, Flash reveals that there was a reason for all the chemicals he had spilled around J'onn's feet. Hal comes in and lobs one of Commissioner Gordon's squad cars at it, expanding that they're all flammable. His BondOneLiner?
35-->''[[AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle Flash fact!]]''
