Martian Manhunter quotes from Justice League

I was just thinking... you, me, Wonder Woman, Superman - we are all of us orphans and exiles.

Hawkgirl

Maybe we should call ourselves the "Just Us League."

Hawkgirl

So what are you saying? You'd sacrifice millions of lives just because you don't like this guy?

Superman

You don't know Darkseid like I do.

Batman

We know he used you, humiliated you, brainwashed you, wound you up like a tin soldier and turned you loose against Earth. [Gets right up in Superman's face] Cry me a river. On the outside chance that this isn't one of his schemes, we have to take action - so I suggest you get over it.

Brainiac has already destroyed countless civilizations, and now he threatens another. Do you want this to be the legacy of your people?

Batman

Having fun?

Yes.

Lex Luthor

You know what to do!

[calmly] Yes. You know.

Lex Luthor

Nothing can stop you now! You have all their powers!

Use them well.

Flash

I say we let 'em waste each other.

Hawkgirl

Since when do we do what you say?

So small, all of you. And so meaningless. There's nothing I want from you anymore. None of you has anything to offer me now.

Wonder Woman

Where did he go?

Where gods belong.

Lex Luthor

Oh stop. He's just a machine. I don't care how much power he has, he's no god.

Superman

Then why do I have a feeling that if he ever comes back, you're going to be doing a lot of praying?

Perhaps we'll all be praying.

Flash

What were you working on?

Nothing. I was taking a nap.

Flash

Lucky for The Big K we've got Martian care on our League HMO.

Bolovax physiology is very similar to my own.

Hawkgirl

And how much of this is guesswork?

I would rather not say.

Batman

[Referring to the Justice Lords' Martian Manhunter] Have you read his mind yet?

Martians don't do that to one another.

Batman

Can't? Or won't?

Both.

Superman

How can we stop it?

There is one possibility. To halt the process we would need to create an Einstein-Rosen Bridge to drain off the affecting anti-fusion matter.

Flash

Create a what to do what?

Hawkgirl

Make a wormhole to suck away the bad stuff.

Flash

Oh.

The Justice League is about more than physical power. It's about ideals, caring, helping.

Lobo

Buy me a ticket to Pukesville.

You were greatly missed, my friend... by all of us.

Wonder Woman

Don't let him fool you. Your death hit him as hard as it did any of us.

Superman

Really?

Batman

No. I never believed you were dead in the first place.

Superman

I guess that's sort of a compliment.

Lobo

Ain't this great? The whole team together again, all eight of us!

Superman

Count again. You're fired.

Lobo

What?!

Superman

You're not Justice League material, Lobo. Go chase a bail-jumper. I don't care what you do, just clear out.

Lobo

This is the thanks I get? What a stinkin' rip. [hops onto his Hog] Next time you lollipops need help, don't bother asking the Main Man! [flies away]

... We didn't ask you this time!

It's good to have you home again, son.

It's good to be back, Pa. And I brought a friend.

Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Kent. I hope I'm not intruding. Super.. uh, Clark was most insistent I join you for the holiday. My name is J'onn. I'm a Martian.

Oh, we're no strangers to aliens in this house. Make yourself at home.

Batman

The most mysterious creatures in the universe.

Green Lantern

Sorry?

Batman

Women. Don't be too hard on yourself. You didn't know she was spoken for.

Green Lantern

How did you...?

Batman

It wasn't hard to figure out. The point is these things happen. You just have to accept it and move on.

Green Lantern

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

Believe me, I know the pain when two people who are involved...

Flash

Who's involved? [He looks at Green Lantern] You and Hawkgirl?! Get out. [Green Lantern glares at Flash] Really?

They'll have the whole city covered by now.

Flash

Who knows? Maybe they'll get tired and go home. [Everyone looks at him] ...Yeah, I know. But a little optimism at a time like this couldn't hurt.

This is the voice of the Thanagarian Occupational Authority. Your so-called Justice League is in violation of our martial law. They are to be considered an enemy and dealt with on sight. Any person found aiding or harboring them will be summarily punished.

Flash

Okay, so much for optimism.

Batman

For the time being, we're going to have to go underground.

Wonder Woman

How exactly do we hide when the entire planet is looking for us?

They'll be looking for the Justice League. Without our costumes, we are merely ordinary citizens. [shifts into human form]

Flash

Hold on a second here. What about the whole secret identity thing? I mean, I trust you guys, but I'm not sure I'm ready to-

Batman

[points at Flash] Wally West, [points at Superman] Clark Kent... [removes own mask] Bruce Wayne.

Flash

[stares, wide-eyed] ...Showoff. [shrugs and removes his cowl]

Wonder Woman

[ruffles his hair] Red hair. It suits you.

Flash

You think? [gets hit in the head by a shirt]

Batman

[stalks past, looking disgruntled] Change. Now.

Batman

Well?

I have no idea how to fly this vehicle.

Flash

What's this do? [pushes random button that causes the ship to fire at Wayne Manor, narrowly missing Alfred]

Batman

[through clenched teeth] That's. Not. Helping.
