Funny / The Super Hero Squad Show

For starters, the suit has lips

• Hulk's interactions with the phone during Reptil's debut episode. And that ending.
  Hulk: Riiiing! (cut to a shot of Super Hero City) RIIIIING! (cut to a shot of the Earth)RIIIIIIIING!!!!!
• And in "This Silver, This Surfer":
  Wolverine: He is weird.
  Falcon: Says the guy who smells like a squirrel and has built in machetes.
• And this in episode 5:
  Dr. Strange: No, Falcon, leave the magic to the Sorcerer Supreme!
  Thor: David Copperfield?
• The HULK of all people gives us this golden line in episode 6
  Hulk: Someone throwing up cars? Wow.
• Just about anything the Hulk does. For example, there's his response to being told to make sure his plant gets plenty of sunlight in "O, Captain, My Captain!"
  Hulk: *throws a potted plant out the window* Now plant will get plenty of sun!
• "Mental Organism Designed Only for Kisses"
  • In general, it's very hilarious to see M.O.D.O.K. and Ms. Marvel act like Sickeningly Sweethearts.
  • When Skurge the Executioner freezes Valkyrie solid while she is cooking, Thor shouts that Asgardian meatballs taste disgusting if they are frozen, then defrosted. Skurge mocks him for thinking about food instead of acting concerned for her well-being. Later, when Valkyrie is freed, she also tears into Skurge for ruining the meatballs.
• In "Stranger From a Savage Land", Iron Man calls Captain America for backup. Captain America's enthusiasm is priceless.
  Iron Man: We need you and your little shield to take a ride on a giant pterodactyl.
  Captain America: *looks at Iron Man suspiciously, then grins* Sir, yes sir! No jibber-jabber, sir!
  • At the end, Captain America's shield interacts with the Star Quartz, causing Dr. Doom's armor and helicopter to melt and crash. Then this happens:
  Captain America: Give it here or the world will know what kind of underpants a despot wears!
  Dr. Doom: HA! I'm wearing... A METAL THONG!
  Captain America: *gives Doom the exact same suspicious stare he gave Iron Man*
  Dr. Doom: BLAST IT! No, no, don't look! Just kidding! JUST KIDDING!
• Various heroes going out to use their vacation time. Captain America? He's talking to Ed Brubanker on the phone while dressed like a Confederate soldier.
  Captain America: It's the Civil War, what could happen?
• The Punisher. How do you make this guy Lighter and Softer? Just have him ramble on in Frank Miller's oh-so-easy-to-parody style of prose.
• Just about the entire episode "The Saga of Beta Ray Bill, part 1"
  • For example: Thor going nuts and talking to Mjölnir, having a flashback montage with it and Bill hamming it up beyond belief when he gets the power!
  Thor: To prove my worth, I shall battle naked!
  Offscreen voice: Ewwwww!
  Thor: Not like that! Without weapons!
• In the episode introducing Dormammu:
  Falcon: Dude! Your head is on fire!
  Human Torch: Yeah, like that's weird.
  • Not to mention the scene where Dr. Strange reads the Squads' thoughts. Hulk is merely thinking "Hulk smash!" Predictable, but still funny.
• "If This Be My Thanos!"
  • M.O.D.O.K. and the Abomination ceaselessly mocking the Trapster for calling himself Paste Pot Pete.
  Trapster: You guys are jerks!
  M.O.D.O.K.: We're bad guys. We're supposed to be jerks!
  • Doctor Doom's incensed response to learning what the Skrulls were doing on Earth.
  Dr. Doom: You mean this...was all about STRING CHEEEEEESE?!
• One episode had a part where it looked like the world was about to be destroyed. Hero and villain alike start sadly preparing for the end.
  The Melter: (to Ms. Marvel) I have always loved you.
  Ms. Marvel: *punches him out*
  • The reason the world is about to end? A little girl with a fractal-empowered tiara is throwing a literal Suicidal Cosmic Temper Tantrum.
• "Days, Nights, and Weekends of Future Past!"
  • Falcon tries to convince the Scarlet Empress that she's meant to be good by claiming that people write positive things about her on message boards. Scarlet Empress is not convinced. "No one ever writes positive things on message boards!"
  • When Adult Reptil encourages H.E.R.B.I.E. to give fighting a chance, he gets a little too into it after he's already beaten all the Sentinels.
  • Magneto is portrayed as a senile old man who keeps falling asleep at random and at one point wakes up to yell that people should stay off his lawn.
• When the Squaddies need to find a place to crash (It Makes Sense in Context), Iron Man tries to think of who would be a good idea and of the choices:
  Iron Man: She-Hulk? (Beat) Maybe if it was just me...
• The opening credits of Season Two ending with Thanos being smacked in the face by the show's logo.
• Pretty much all of "Too Many Wolverines!", which features a Mythology Gag to Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, Thor suggesting that the clones would explain how Wolverine appears in so many comics every month, and the Wolverine clones being attracted to Canadian bacon and hockey sticks.
  • The ending, where Amadeus Cho's science project wins and is revealed to be numerous clones of the Mayor.
• This exchange about the Squad:
  M.O.D.O.K.: What are they doing at the water and power building?
  Abomination: Paying their super-power bill?
  M.O.D.O.K.: (swinging at Abomination while being held back) Want, to, hit you, but arms, too short!
• The fact that THANOS actually appears in the show. Comparing his canon personality to the bratty, Laughably Evil one he has here...the last time he was this Out of Character, he was flying a helicopter with his name on it.
• "Election of Evil"
  • Egghead tries to use his compelling device on Doom. It doesn't work and instead causes Doom to threaten to disintegrate him.
  • Ms. Marvel and Captain America praising Egghead by reciting limericks.
  • When Dr. Strange and Wolverine try to find a way for the Mayor to win his election, the Mayor brings up something about a hero who got his powers from being bitten by a radioactive bug. Wolverine, who is armed with adamantium claws and has lived a long life without aging because of his healing factor, assumes that the Mayor is making it up.
• "Hexes, Vexes, and Perplexes"
  • Magneto assuming that M.O.D.O.K. and Abomination are Doom's kids.
  • Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver's half-hearted evil laughs when Magneto demands they laugh with him.
• "The Ice Melt Cometh"
  • M.O.D.O.K. and Abomination are confused by the Trapster's presence, stating that they thought he was fired. Trapster gives a complicated explanation for why he's still here, only for Doctor Doom to yell "Too boring".
  • Flatman's discussion of global warming being when the sun is mean to the Earth. The monotonous delivery is what sells it.
• 'Wrath of the Red Skull"
  • The frozen Red Skull is apparently inside the meat locker of a German wiener restaurant.
  • The flashback of the Red Skull being bullied by Arnim Zola, who is much larger than him and clad in a sailor suit.
  • M.O.D.O.K. gushes over the Red Skull using a scale model of a giant Skull Bot for the overview of his Evil Plan, stating that he likes action figures. Red Skull shuts him up by asking him when they stop being dolls.
• "Mother of Doom"
  • Doom's mother in general is very hilarious, and the Abomination and M.O.D.O.K. are very much enjoying every minute of her son's indignation. One highlight is when she speaks fondly of Doom's old rival Reed Richards.
  • While looking for his mother in the beginning of the episode, Doom is, for some reason, horrified when he comes across real life Marvel artist Don Heck (and MODOK even says his name later — "How in the Don Heck are we supposed to do that?").
• The beginning of "Last Exit Before Doomsday" has the Abomination and M.O.D.O.K. fighting over use of the radio in Doom's helicopter, with the former wanting to listen to the show's theme song and the latter wanting to listen to banjo music.
• "Another Order of Evil"
  • H.E.R.B.I.E.'s over-the-top panicking over Scarlet Witch being on the Helicarrier.
  • The framing device for part two has M.O.D.O.K. forced to read the events of the episode as a bedtime story to Abomination while dressed like a fairy.
• "World War Witch"
  • H.E.R.B.I.E. loses it when Thanos tries to use the Time Gem on the Helicarrier.
  H.E.R.B.I.E.: Unauthorized teleportation! No-no! Definitely a no-no!
  • Iron Man explains that he once tried to build a time machine, but it created something. The Hulk interjects "paradox". Iron Man is impressed that the Hulk was able to finish his sentence, but it turns out that he was only talking about a pair of ducks that were nearby.
  Hulk: Hulk like duckies!
• "Double Negation at the World's End!"
  • The episode at one point pokes fun at H.E.R.B.I.E. taking the place of the Human Torch in The Fantastic Four (1978) by having H.E.R.B.I.E. discuss his history with the Fantastic Four to Wolverine and explaining that it happened because of something with lawyers. Wolverine brings up the popular misconception that the Human Torch wasn't in the 70's cartoon because of concerns that kids would try to imitate him by setting themselves on fire. H.E.R.B.I.E. responds that children are too smart to copy what they see the Torch do on TV. The scene then immediately does a Cutaway Gag to the Torch himself, as if to test what H.E.R.B.I.E. claimed:
    Johnny Storm: (talking to someone on the phone) I would look good with an earring on my butt! Ooh, here, let me give you my credit card number!
  • Wolverine checks off H.E.R.B.I.E. on his long list of heroes he's teamed up with and H.E.R.B.I.E. is surprised that Wolverine once teamed up with the Easter Bunny.
• "Revenge of the Baby-Sat!"
  • Iron Man, Scarlet Witch, and Falcon as toddlers manage to be funny in general. One highlight is when Lil' Iron Man and Lil' Falcon argue over which of them is stinky. Wolverine tries to get them to break it up, only for them to both declare that Wolverine is the stinkiest.
  • Doctor Doom turning into a little kid and throwing a tantrum over it.
  • At the end of the episode, Wolverine gives Iron Man, Scarlet Witch, and Falcon action figures of himself, only for the three of them to start fighting over their figures each having a unique feature.
• "The Final Battle! ('Nuff Said!)"
  • The recap at the beginning of the episode, especially when it starts with clips of ridiculous events that never happened in any of the previous episodes (such as Wolverine revealing to Falcon and Scarlet Witch that he has exploding head syndrome right before his head blows up in confetti off-screen) and the Mayor of Superhero City gives the excuse that he missed the last few episodes and his TiVo is on the fritz.
  • After Thor gets Mjölnir turned into a giant baby rattle, he is understandably upset:
  Thor: "Fiend! I say thee GOO!" (Materializes a huge blob of baby food over Reality!Surfer's head and dumps it on him)
  • Dark Surfer using the Soul Stone on Wolverine to make him emotional. Especially when Wolvie turns it back on him.
  Soul!Surfer (sobbing): "So much Animal Emotion! As if a million fanboys suddenly saw an iconic character... redesigned!"
• When Scarlet Witch has to face Power Princess, a vague Wonder Woman spoof with a variety of invisible tools, she wins by bluffing that she has an invisible unblockable death ray. Power Princess immediately surrenders.
