Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'd argue the same was true of Barry Allen.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

At this point I think the only dead people left in the DC universe are the Waynes.

ETA: And Barry's mother. I forgot she had to die so he could be resurrected with a tragic back story.

Oh, yeah! Duh. Two of my friends are volunteering at local comic shops to help them manage the increased traffic; I should have known better.

Interesting spoiler from the comics, with possible implications for the movies: Lady Thor is Jane Foster.
