“Showdown” quotes from Batman: The Animated Series

Well, well. Jonah Hex, his own bad self. Been here five minutes and you ain't killed nobody nor set nothin' on fire. Slippin', ain't you?

I'm still a little bushed.

Fact is, you look a little past it, Hex. Not tired, just all used up.

Well, when I get pushed, I can still shoot a fly out from between its wings. Provided the light's right, of course... and it's a big plump fly.

I ain't got nothin' on you, Hex... yet. Just remember, them wanted posters say "dead or alive". You might try "alive" this time.

First time for everything.

It would appear we have ourselves a government spy. A rather disreputable-looking one at that. Well, Mr. Spy, I'd say your plan has failed, and the railroad is doomed.

I ain't no spy. I'm Jonah Hex, and I don't give a tinker's cuss about no railroad. I've come to get you, Arkady Duvall, on account of what you done to that girl back east.

[chuckles] You mean to say, you've tracked me across twelve states because of that?

Well, there's also the matter of a 200 dollar reward. That part don't hurt my feelings none.

You're either a liar or a fool.

I've been known to be foolish, but ain't nobody calls me a liar and goes to bed happy.

Now let's you and me dance.

You cannot defeat me. I am a Heidelberg fencing champion.

My heart's all a-flutter.

Five thousand in gold, take it. Leave me be.

It ain't about money, boy. It's about justice. And I aim to serve you some.

Let me live, please.

I will. Only because it's too much trouble to haul your stinkin' carcass back east.

Batman

You left Duvall to his fate a century ago. Why come back for him now?

Did you really think, detective, that in my six hundred years of life, I would have sired only one offspring? Even before the Phoenix debacle, I had come to realize that Arkady was too unbalanced and cruel to wisely rule my empire.

Batman

But you couldn't forget about him.

What father can ever forget his son? Come now, detective, I've still a few good years left. We will cross swords another day. But for now, let me take my boy home.
