Go To

  • The fact that Squirrel Girl was announced for this game on the same day that Moon Knight was announced for the kid-friendly Super Hero Squad Online.
  • Spider-Man's remark regarding Kingpin's nightclub.
    Spidey: I assume everything is a front... for a fast food franchise. Y'know, because he's fat.
  • A lot of the character interactions
    Black Widow (to Spider-Man): No, Spider-Man. I do not want to be your "amazing friend."
    Hulk (to Hawkeye): Hey, Hawkeye, does anyone actually find you useful?
    Rocket Raccoon (to Thor): HEY! You're just a Beta Ray Bill knock-off! (Hilariously enough, he still says this to Beta Ray Bill as well)
    Daredevil (to any member of the Avengers): Oh look... it's an Avenger. We're saved.
    Captain America (to Iron Man): Tell me, Tony, who's responsible for this Rickrolling shenanigan?
    Star-Lord (to Hawkeye): Arrows? I have a pair of advanced space guns. And you're using... arrows?
    Psylocke (to Deadpool): Deadpool! Tell your voices to keep it down!
    Kitty Pryde (to Doctor Doom): Oh, hey, Doom's here. Should we be... fighting him? What is going on?!
    Blade (to Captain America): Super-soldier blood... wonder what that tastes like? Oh, nothing Cap! Just (cough) thinking out loud!
    Deadpool (to Hawkeye): Oh, oh, so they let Robin Hood in, but somehow the Avengers keep losing my phone number. What's up with that? (They must've eventually found it, because he joined the Avengers in 2015.)
    Ultron: (to War Machine): Designation: War Machine. Analysis: Disappointing.
    Ultron: (to Deadpool): The entity known as Deadpool must be destroyed and reconstructed repeatedly. For Science!. Of course.
    Jean Grey: (to Emma Frost): You know, Emma, I can read minds with my clothes on.
    Spider-Man: That's Black Widow over there. No relation! Get it, "no relation?" Because we're both Spi- yeah, that sounded funnier in my head.
    Spider-Man: How come all the other Spider-related heroes are secret agents? Where was I on Career Day?"
  • Rocket Raccoon in response to the Hood stealing the Tablet from the heroes and Dr. Octopus.
    Rocket Raccoon: Please tell me I wasn't the only guy who saw that coming from a mile away.
  • A lot of the flavor text for items:
    • For Rocket Raccoon's shirts
    "Can I get your tailor's name?" - Puck
  • Just playing as Rocket Raccoon in general. You've got this massive cast of superheroes taking on threats to the cosmos themselves, and in the middle of all of this is an angry, raygun-toting raccoon with a Cockney accent snarking it up everywhere he goes, followed by a giant plant-man.
    • Rocket's Enhanced, movie costume, which gives him a more realistic look for him and Groot, and different voice work. Same snark, including.
    (Upon seeing She-Hulk) "Whoa, Gamorra! What did you eat?!"
    (On Cyclops) "You can make things explode, just by looking at them? I WANT THAT!"
  • Pretty much anything Deadpool says in the game. And the fact that he actually has an ability in his skill tree called God Mode.
    • While most characters have "Diamond Paragon", "Panther Avatar", "Galactic Guardian", etc, Deadpool's skill trees are called "Hurty", "Fighty", and "Tricky".
  • After beating Dr. Doom.
    Iron Man: Shawarma time!
    Spider-Man: What is it with you and- (cut off)
  • Moon Knight prior to fighting the Shocker.
    Moon Knight: The only one who can stop a B-lister like you... is a B-lister like ME!
  • The Taskmaster Institute commercial.
  • Some of Captain America's lines when he breaks environmental objects (a common occurrence with his Shield Bounce power):
    I, uh, needed the practice!
    I'm sure Tony can pay for that.
    That's... going to need a new paint job.
    • A lot of the squeaky-clean heroes have similar sentiments:
      Cyclops: I'll just blame that on Logan.
  • When entering the hidden S.H.I.E.L.D. base in Madripoor through a barbershop, the team is shown as having no reaction to the quickly plummeting barber seats, except for Spider-Man.
    Spider-Man: Yay! A ride!
    • Absolutely sold by Black Widow sitting calmly, her arms crossed over her chest. . . and her hair flying up around her head.
  • When the team are getting the briefing on the Hand in Maripoor, Luke Cage is eager to get to work.
    Luke: Let's go beat some ninjas.
    Spiderman: You say that with such enthusiasm.
    Luke: Hey, I like what I like.
  • Just about everything Deadpool says, including commenting on how much XP he's getting, random Shout Outs, and general nonsense and mockery of every other hero he encounters. He's got the most lines of any hero in the game, and they're all gold.
    • In particular, his line after you finish the cutscene where you capture Stryker and find out about Mister Sinister in the Savage Land:
    Deadpool: For those of you who just skipped that, we're going to Disneyland to find Mister Silly-String! ....well, close enough.
    • Fighting Taskmaster:
    Deadpool: Ha ha! I will defeat you by having no useful skills whatsoever!
  • Speaking of Deadpool, X-23 gives us this little gem:
    X-23: Deadpool, I do not understand your remark about 'character level'.
  • Iron Man teaming up with... himself (wearing the Mark II).
    Iron Man: Finally, someone who gets me.
    Iron Man Mark II: How ya doin', handsome?
  • The Danger Room game mode includes a number of map hazards, one of which is a swinging wrecking ball... With Deadpool riding on it, Miley Cyrus style.
  • There's something utterly hilarious in how Blade is completely obsessed with finding vampires, yet there are no vampires in the game.
  • Playing as Doctor Doom, or having him as a team-up, is incredibly funny just because of how he actively insults everything he meets with a combination of incredible arrogance and over the top hamminess. The only exception is when he meets another Doom player, who he'll respond to by either commenting on how ugly this Doombot is, or demanding the Doombot kneel before its true master.
  • Some of the random lines NPCs have when interacting with the player can be hilarious depending on which hero you're playing. For instance Coulson telling Dr. Doom "It's a good thing you're here," or telling Loki "I'm a big fan of your work." (Wonder if that includes Loki, you know, killing him.)
  • Ultron, who is the living embodiment of Deadpan Snarker.
    Ultron: (blowing up Mooks): Fortunately, I am incapable of feeling guilt.
    Ultron: ("Good Job" emote): For an inferior lifeform, you're not half bad.
    Ultron: (to the Kingpin): Now that is a robust meatbag.
    Ultron: ("Assist Me" emote): Assist me. Or I will destroy you.
    Ultron: (Seeing himself): The world had better get used to seeing a lot more of me around.
    Ultron: (Attempting to use a targeted power with no target): Ah, but where do I raise hell?
  • The one-shot with the Lizard and Mr. Hyde has a moment where the villains jump over a high fence. What makes this funny is that Hyde is in his Calvin Zabo form, who has no powers. How a normal human leaped over a 12-foot fence is never explained.
  • These threads chronicle some of the great dialogue lines in-game, some of which are inherently funny, and others which become so in context. Sadly, with the game's closure, they are now lost forever.
