** When there was a debate about whether the strongest Ace was Golden Boy or the Harlem Hammer, another character ruminated on what a ridiculous question it was, because those guys had strength in roughly the 40-ton range. The Turtle had once lifted a ''battleship'' out of the water. And even that is nothing compared to what he did [[spoiler:at the climax of ''Dealer's Choice''. He held back ''the Hudson River'' until it was essentially a tidal wave strong enough to wipe Ellis Island off the map.]]

* The Great Turtle busting up a heroin ring in Literature/WildCardsI, redeeming Doctor Tachyon from alcoholism, and rescuing Angel Face in a single night. The Great and Powerful Turtle indeed. Really, the Turtle is a walking CrowningMomentOfAwesome.

Deleted Aces High examples, which have their own page.


* Modular Man rescuing a girl from Film/KingKong in AcesHigh. Not just a suspiciously similar substitute but what would appear to be King Kong for all intents and purposes climbing up the ''Empire State Building.''
* The United States military gets one in AcesHigh. They thoroughly curb stomp the Swarm during their invasion. The fact that the Aces helped only makes their accomplishment all the sweeter.
