----

->Look! Look at what you've done! Look at all the decay, all the destruction!

->'''Power Boy:''' Look, I'm just going to lay it all out because honesty is important in a strong relationship... I was born on Apokolips. Taken from the Armagetto Slums to serve You-Know-Who... He made me strong, trained me in the ways of the Earth so I could come here as a "hero" and... Well, it doesn't really matter anymore, because it changed the day you came to Apokolips. The most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Ever felt. From that moment, I knew I had found my "Missing Half". I knew we would be together. And then you left... I couldn't eat. Sleep. Think. I knew that my true destiny wasn't with Darkseid and his stupid plans... So I followed you across the universe.

->'''Satan Girl:''' Ha, Ha... So you thought I'm an android? Supergirl, you'd be amazed if you knew who I really am! I'll tell you as I destroy you!

-->''"he sacred gift of chaos is like a fractal, appearing infinite to the simple, but shaped in a complex mandala beyond their comprehension, and so useless to them... but not to me."''

-->Portrayed by Faye Dunaway

->There's no stopping her! She counters my every move! She'll be freed for sure now! Take heart, Shyla-- though our plans will be delayed, we can still move ahead with caution!...

->Before, I just used you to play up to foolish women who fell for your good looks so we could fleece them of their money and jewels. But now, we've enough money to launch my master plan! A secret army of women who will first help me dominate America-- then the world!

->In fact, I don't just look like you. I AM you. Identical. Well, except that I'm better. I'm like, the upgrade, y'know? Linda -- version B. Or Belinda. Whatever.

->'''Xenon:''' Lucky? Sealed into this... this nothingness... by the power of the creature Supergirl? With its emblem displaying its dominion over me? But it made a mistake, didn't it, Spectre? It will have no power if it's dead.
