Funny / Great Lakes Avengers

• After a montage of the Great Lakes Avengers trying to recruit other superheroes, only to get turned down, Flatman finally seems to find an interested party in Living Lightning, who says he'd been meaning to join the GLA for some time. Then he learns what it stands for.
  Living Lightning: [baffled] "Great Lakes Avengers"? Oh, sorry. [flying away] I thought you were the Gay/Lesbian Alliance.
• Flatman comes out to his teammates as being gay, then Mr. Immortal comes in and tells them he just found out he's "Homo supreme."
  Flatman: [muttering] You always have to one-up me, don't you?
• Flatman is practically invisible when viewed at a certain angle.
• When the team is trying to get Deadpool out of the base during their crossover, they convince Big Bertha to take him on a date. Deadpool readily agrees, only to show some disappointment when they meet up. BB realizes that his varying opinions is because he's a confessed "chubby chaser," and is not attracted to her supermodel form compared to her transformed state. She tells him that's no better than liking her for her model body since he's just attracted to her looks. At this point, Deadpool says he respects her point about not judging by looks, and removes his mask. Big Bertha promptly turns away and vomits.
• Squirrel Girl trying to convince Penance (Speedball during his Civil War Audience-Alienating Era) to cheer up again. Highlights include the fact he's turned his pet cat into P-Cat (basically putting him in what looks like a giant mechanical nut.) and Doreen, for probably the only time in her career, losing when Penance's penchant for self punishment freaks her and Tippy Toe out too much.
  • She then goes to Doctor Doom's palace to get a time machine to stop Robbie's Despair Event Horizon. Doom's response to her breaking in? "OH it's you. ". He then lets her go ahead, presumably due to how badly she thrashed him last time.
  • The climax of the subplot: Squirrel Girl ends up in the year 2099 and meets that timeline's Robbie who sadly explains he can't go back. She then runs into Mr.Immortal who urges her to go back because the GLI need her for an important mission: Getting Deadpool out of their HQ, which she does in the next panel.
• In the Deadpool/GLI one-shot, the forces of A.I.M. get a hold of Dionysus, the god of wine. They harness his magic to make every super team on Earth too drunk to stop them. They don't affect Deadpool or the Great Lakes Avengers. Deadpool is not really a superhero, and has issues with mind control, so he's understandable. The GLA? ...they forgot about them.
  A.I.M. Scientist: "Can you blame me!?"
  • Deadpool's reaction to finding out AIM has Dionysus? "Who had 'Fat drunk Roman god' In the betting pool?" Doorman then chimes in that he had Mesmero.
  • Deadpool then proceeds to have this priceless exchange while freeing the god.
    Deadpool: Is it true when you're around all drinks are on the house?
    Dionysus: 'Tis true.
    Deadpool: Can you be my sidekick or ward or something?
• The GLA's mode of transport the Quin-Jetta
• Doorman's dad's reaction to finding out his son's the god of death come to claim him? "Wait till your relatives on the other side hear this!"
• The many deaths of the Grasshoppers. Black Comedy at its finest.
  • Grasshopper I: Dies 8 seconds after joining the GLA, due to Doorman teleporting a sai through himself and it stabbing Grasshopper in the head.
  • Grasshopper II: The twin brother of the former who jumps really high, with the captions saying to expect more from him. He next shows up with his dead body floating through space when Doorman comes to take him to the next life.
  • Grasshopper III: Shows up at the GLI's doorstep and runs into Deadpool right after he was kicked out of their HQ. Grasshopper gets his neck snapped for his troubles.
• Mr. Immortal describing how he knows where Maelstrom's lair is:
  Mr. Immortal: My imaginary friend from childhood told me after I beat it out of him.
• The montage of every single hero in New York turning the GLA down, capped off with the best of the bunch:
  Luke Cage: Sweet Christmas no!
• The GLI's arch enemy? A mad scientist who attacks every Christmas.
  • How do they beat his latest scheme to take over the world with animated Christmas trees? Weigh them down with decorations so they can't move.
• In one story, Deathurge, still in squirrel form, seeks to redeem himself to his boss, and makes numerous attempts to kill Tippy Toe. Mr. Immortal sets off all but one of the traps, and the final one only catches a cuckoo clock bird, which Deathurge tries to offer up.
• In the 2016 series, Doorman's attempts at being a Grim Reaper are not off to a good start with an annoying old man ghost wasting his time.
• Mr. Immortal tries getting sober by staying inside an underground coffin with a tube for air. He also uses a cork called "Corky" that he talks to in a manner similar to Wilson the volleyball from Cast Away.
  Mr. Immortal: Corky, you condescending bastard.
• Squirrel Girl misses the GLA's call to her because she was noisily munching on a fancy lobster dinner with the latest iteration of the Avengers, a slight Take That! at her newfound popularity.
