->''"There ain't many around who can describe what it feels like to get hit by [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk the Hulk]]... Simple fact bein' there ain't many around who can survive to tell the tale. There ain't no pain at first. It's like he hits ya so damn hard ya leave yer own body. It's when you come '''back''' that you feel the '''pain.''' An' ya realize yer goin' toe to toe with a ''walkin' earthquake."''''
-->-- '''Wolverine''' on '''the Hulk''', ''ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} Origins''

->''"Now, as the fable has it, the power that originally forced the [[EldritchAbomination Greater Darkness]] out had broken some important rules to do so. ''[...]'' They're said to have made a weapon which could destroy the universe if used unwisely. So dangerous only the insane would consider even making one, much less using it."\\
"Well, needless to say, the lawbreaker was caught. ''[...]'' In the end [the [[{{Precursors}} Isokist]]] were left with what was apparently an incomplete weapon, but one with some utility."\\

->AAAAGHHHHH!! IT'S THE HUMAN ATOMIC BOMB!!

->I already told you that the only one who can stop me is Hashirama. But he's not in this world anymore. Plus, I should say that it's probably a good thing for you that he is not here, because... if I'm the only one here, the extent to which the maps will need to be redrawn won't be too drastic.

->It may very well be us that meet our end here today... Because that man... HOLDS THE POWER TO DESTROY THE VERY WORLD!!

->Meryl Strife and Milly Thompson are to return to the main office immediately. Furthermore, in a conference held the other day, it was decided that Vash the Stampede will be designated as mankind's first official human disaster. From this day forward, no matter what kind of damage he causes, the Bernardelli Insurance Society will be uninvolved.

->I killed a million people when I last used my powers, and I'd have killed a lot more if they hadn't built these walls around me. Uncle Edgar's why Egypt's a desert. Uncle Edgar's why there's half the stars there used to be. [[WillfullyWeak I'm not locked up to protect me from the outside world]]. [[BadassBoast I'm locked in here to protect the world from me]].

->How'd she get a Red Lantern Ring? [...] A Kryptonian wearing one of those is an extinction level threat—!
-->-- '''Shay Veritas''' on '''Comicbook/{{Supergirl}}''', ''Comicbook/RedDaughterOfKrypton''

->The [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarII Wars to end wars]], the [[NuclearOption weapons to end wars]], these things have failed us. Now we have a man to end wars... By placing our superhuman benefactor in the position of walking nuclear deterrent, it is assumed we have finally guaranteed lasting peace on earth. It is with this last contention that my most serious point of issue lies: I do not believe that we have a man to end wars. I believe that we have made a man to end worlds.
-->-- '''Prof. Milton Glass''', "Superpowers and the Super Powers," ''{{Comicbook/Watchmen}}''

-> 152. Due to the incident after OPERATION: PURPLE TEARS, Captain Annette Durand is hereby banned from participating in any Covert Operations. The British government requested our presence thinking it was a Terror attack, and afterwards our counter-intelligence division requested captured materials that they could process without needing to resort to electron microscopes.

->A 3-dimensional hologram sprang into being just over their heads. It picked out a portion of the Milky Way Galaxy, then drew in on several planets in distant but related solar systems. From each planet, in turn, images of carnage, wreckage, destruction emerged. [[ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} Kara]] and Dev gazed at them. True, they weren’t strangers to sights such as these. But, still...\\
From one, a moving image sprang forth. A rapidly-moving figure, tearing through the machinery and soldiers of a well-equipped army. Just one man against a horde, and within minutes, that man had won.

->As usual, the two armies clashed and Antonio and Morton met hand to hand, burning the forests and shaking the mountains as they exchanged blows. The battlefield was five miles away from the small village Evelina lived in with baby Mario and Luigi, but in a fight of that scale, that meant nothing. Perhaps he had done the deed, perhaps Morton had...either way, the village had been destroyed, razed to the ground by a combination of their blasts and the tremors created by their blows.

->"You still don't understand," Saki snapped. "The TSAB has thought this out. It takes immensely powerful, potentially unstable superbeings who could wipe out cities in a flash," she whirled around and pointed at Hayate, "and puts them behind a desk. That is wisdom."

->[[Film/TheIncredibleHulk Last time I was in]] UsefulNotes/{{New York|City}}, I kinda broke... Harlem.

-->-- '''Tony Stark''' on [[ComicBook/ScarletWitch Wanda Maximoff]], ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar''

->[[VillainProtagonist Danneth]] is eighteen and [[HumanoidAbomination he has the power to eat worlds]]. The government has no choice but to deal with him. At first, the [[SuperpoweredMooks akropolia]] supplement the old forces; they did in the Middle East [[CurbStompBattle in two weeks]] what the president was stumbling over after twenty years. Traditional police are obsolete. Two akropolia can maintain order in each city. Armies follow. Soldiers, weapons, technology, they all become meaningless. [[TheArchmage Danneth]] can render a nuclear reactor inert from halfway across the world. He can boil submarines in the furthest depths of the ocean. He can bring down planes - or cast a spell that causes the sky to swallow them.
-->-- ''Akropolis,'' by Matt Wallace

->Yes, he's extraordinarily gentle for a being who could [[TerrainSculpting rearrange the landscape]] below us and kill every life-form for miles with a single [[BlowYouAway sweep of his wings]].

->[[BlackKnight Black]] had told me there were two people on Calernia against whom it was useless to think in terms of victory, where one could only attempt to limit the damage and lose the least amount of skin possible. One was the [[OurLichesAreDifferent Dead]] [[SorcerousOverlord King]], who he’d charmingly referred to as "the original abomination." The other was the [[{{Determinator}} Ranger]], whose [[TheUnfettered utter]] [[NeverTellMeTheOdds disregard for odds]] I'd been raised hearing stories about.

->An ostler has a mood and he [[KickTheDog kicks the dog]]. A mage has his moods and a town disappears.

->"Now, as the fable has it, the power that originally forced the [[EldritchAbomination Greater Darkness]] out had broken some important rules to do so. [...] They're said to have made a weapon which could destroy the universe if used unwisely. So dangerous only the insane would consider even making one, much less using it."\\
"Well, needless to say, the lawbreaker was caught. [...] In the end [the [[{{Precursors}} Isokist]]] were left with what was apparently an incomplete weapon, but one with some utility."\\

Gothmog shook his head. "No. I'm afraid your friend ''is'' the weapon, somehow activated and given a soul."

->One day, way down in the Southern Kingdom, [[SorcerousOverlord the Hierarch]] climbed to the top of Mount Whitney, more than fourteen thousand feet up, and from there, [[BreathWeapon he breathed dragon fire]]. Most of the flames landed in San Francisco. Chinatown, Haight, the Mission, all lost. The Golden Gate Bridge turned to slag and slipped into steel in piles of steam. [[MoralEventHorizon More than twenty thousand people died]].\\
Not all the Hierarch's flames met their intended targets. Some fell short. Maybe those were just him warming up. Agnes was at school when two bursts hit Fresno. The one that incinerated the Tower District took both the stationary shop and the chicken pie shop. [[YouKilledMyFather It took both her parents]].

->I'll credit you this, Ms. Hebert. You manage a great deal of grief and chaos in very short spans of time.

'''Rezamaar:''' Yeah. Lamont and Jackson against Jercash, Ivan, and Gunther. The fight leveled the entire city and completely wrecked the local ecosystem. And Lamont and Jackson almost lost. Barely managed to hold on until [[BigGood Sermung]] arrived and bailed them out. [...] Five of the strongest [[CameBackStrong servants]] in the world all duking it out in one place. Overra said Lac’Vayce won’t be habitable again for hundreds of years.

->On last count you'd killed twelve planets, but you still found that first quick slice to the jugular the hardest.

-->-- ''Series/AgentsOfSHIELD''

->'''Michael Garibaldi''': Something's happened to your abilities. [[PowerLevels You're not a P5 anymore. Hell, you're not even a P12]]. You're the strongest telepath that I've ever seen. [[TouchedByVorlons What did the Vorlons do to you, Lyta?]] Who... what are you?\\
'''Lyta Alexander''': I've only recently begun to understand it myself. You know the Vorlons used telepaths as weapons during the Shadow War, but what no one stopped to consider was that in a war, you have a certain number of small weapons, a certain number of medium-sized weapons... and one or two big ones, the kind of weapons you drop when you're out of the small weapons and the medium weapons and you've got nothing left to use.\\
'''Michael Garibaldi''': Someone like that would... be the telepathic equivalent of a thermonuclear device, a ... a doomsday weapon.\\
'''Lyta Alexander''': (''[[GlowingEyesOfDoom eyes start glowing]]'') Pleased to meet you, Mr. Garibaldi.

->'''Doctor''': Sonic blaster, fifty first century. Weapon Factories of Villengard?\\
'''Jack''': You've been to the factories?\\
'''Doctor''': Once.\\
'''Jack''': Well, they're gone now, destroyed. The main reactor went critical. Vaporized the lot.\\
'''Doctor''': Like I said: [[NoodleIncident Once.]]

->[[ShutUpHannibal You are]] ''[[ShutUpHannibal tiny]]''. I can see the whole of time and space, every single atom of your existence, and I divide them. Everything must come to dust. All things, ''everything dies''. The Time War ends.

->[T]here will be no more pain. No doubt. Only absolute rage and unparalleled power.
-->-- '''Brainiac''' on Davis Bloome/Doomsday, ''Series/{{Smallville}}'', "Legion"

->The will of [[TheArchmage Lord Quex]] prevailed, and drawing upon the reservoirs of power within the geomantic web, the Mage-Priest caused the continents to move.
->Earthquakes stuck every corner of the globe. Skycastles tumbled in the Mountains of Mourn and a ragged breach appeared in [[TheGreatWall the Great Bastion]] of [[FantasyCounterpartCulture Cathay]], through which a hundred thousand vengeful [[HordesFromTheEast Hung Marauders]] swarmed. The lands about ancient Kavzar were blasted apart before being drowned by the sea. Worst hit of all were the World's Edge Mountains, for beneath this range was to be found the [[TunnelNetwork great Underway]] of the Dwarf Empire. Lava surged up from the world's depths to flood the halls of the Dwarfs, and untold numbers were incinerated in an instant.

->Perhaps the most dangerous human in the galaxy is an untrained [[PsychicPowers psyker]]. If they are not [[MutantDraftBoard controlled]] or [[ShootTheDog purged]], the erratic and awesome forces they can unwittingly unleash may destroy whole settlements or even worlds. Those [[BlessedWithSuck cursed]] with an incredible level of psychic talent are codified by the Black Ships of the Inquisition as [[PowerLevels Alpha-level]] - the highest category a human psyker can reach. Alpha-level psykers can turn a man inside out with a glance. A mere flick of a wrist can snap a [[HumongousMecha Battle Titan]] in two, or a muttered syllable [[HatePlague turn an army upon itself in a frenzy of bloodlust]]. With such godlike power at their disposal, it is small wonder that Alpha-level psykers are among the most dreaded of foes that the Ordo Hereticus of the Inquisition must face.

->The [[TheArchMage true master]] of [[ElementalPowers Vires]] can shake the heavens themselves with his awesome might. He can bend the tides, topple mountains, and create raging storms. If he chooses, [[MegatonPunch a blow from his fist can shatter steel and stone]], or the raging power of a landslide might strike his town with no more force than a mass of falling feathers. [[YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry When the Master is angered]], lava floes erupt, thunder rains on all sides, and foes fall screaming, [[KillItWithFire embraced by withering flames]].

->When Huna, whom Pelinal raised from grain-slave to hoplite and loved well, took death from an arrowhead made from the beak of Celethelel the Singer, [[TheBerserker the Whitestrake]] [[AxeCrazy went on his first Madness]]. [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge He wrought destruction from Narlemae all the way to Celediil,]] [[OneManArmy and erased those lands from the maps of Elves and Men, and all things in them,]] and Perrif was forced to make sacrifice to the Gods to keep them from leaving the world in their disgust.

->'''Stokes''': Who the fuck is Alma, anyway?\\
'''Snake Fist''': She's ''the mother of the apocalypse.''

->Let us bring back a legendary swordsman from a forgotten time. He may end up destroying a planet or two, but such is life.

-> "Warning, the Slayer has entered the facility."

->If Ludwig were to purposely unleash his immense power and move as he pleased, the effect of that would be obvious. All the darkness would be torn the regions where it was far to early for morning to come. They would become an emptiness where neither light nor shadow reigned and then ''vanish''. Due to that fact, the world could crumble if he merely let go of all restraint and traveled around the globe. Of course, he had no intention of doing so, but there was no denying that he was an entity capable of such destruction.

->THAT'S why Hayate has a [[PowerLimiter limiter]]. Nanoha is a Magical Killsat Girl.\\
Hayate is a Magical ''[=MIRVed=] ICBM Launch Complex'' Girl.
