## Hal Jordan

* Beware my power, asshole.

## Aquaman

* [to Cyborg] The era of the land-dweller is at an end, hero. Your metal skull will decorate my great hall.

## Nora Allen

* ...when I was a little girl, Grandma taught me a prayer: Accept the things you cannot change. Have the courage to change the things you can... and have the wisdom to know the difference.

## Dialogue

    Barry Allen: No mom, I'm fine. But everything else has... changed. And I have to find out why. I think it probably has something to do with me being...
    Nora Allen: Gay?
    Barry Allen: What? No...
    Nora Allen: It's okay. I love you no matter what.
    Grifter: I like your style, Batman. A pity we never teamed up when the world still existed.
    Batman: Batman and Grifter, the boy idiot.
    Professor Zoom: As long as I can siphon off the Speed Force, you can't escape this timeline. I'm afraid there just isn't enough Speed Force to go around.
    Batman: [shoots Zoom in the head] There is now.
    The Flash: You killed him.
    Batman: Not necessarily. Not if you go back in time and fix this. The only way to save the world is to keep this from ever happening.
    Batman: Never seen anything like it. Your burns are healing. You should be dead.
    Barry Allen: Your bedside manners sucks. If I didn't have the Speed Force helping me heal, I'd find another doctor.
    Batman: I run a casino. Haven't been a doctor for 20 years.
    Wonder Woman: [wraps her Lasso of Truth on Zoom] How do we shut off these charges?
    Professor Zoom: You can't. We'll all be dead, shortly. The truth hurts, doesn't it?
    The Flash: Why aren't you telling him about me and the timeline?
    Batman: I'm not lying.
    The Flash: You're misleading him. He has a right to know what our real plan is.
    Batman: Don't preach to me. I got enough misplaced morality to handle the big metal Boy Scout on our hands. He wants to stop the war. So do we. That's all he needs to know.
    [hands Professor Zoom's costume to Barry]
    Batman: Here. You need a suit, and I'm not about to loan you one of mine. What? It's friction-proof, isn't it?
    The Flash: [changes Zoom's suit into The Flash] I had to at least make some last-minute alterations.
    Batman: You should've let her hit the pavement.
    Cyborg: You shouldn't have thrown her.
    Batman: She slipped.
    Aquaman: You murdered my wife, Diana.
    Wonder Woman: She tried to assassinate me, Arthur. I was protecting myself.
    Aquaman: Yet you wear her helmet like a trophy.
    Wonder Woman: No. A warning.
    Wonder Woman: This form is not your own. How is the enchantment broken?
    Captain Thunder: With a word.
    Wonder Woman: Speak the word.
    Captain Thunder: Shazam!
    Green Lantern: Clearly, you should never do this stuff without me. You end up with crap all over yourself.
    The Flash: Focus, GL. Bombs.
    The Flash: [about Flash's Mother] I just wanted to save her.
    Professor Zoom: Her hero; how noble. Oh, wait! You didn't stop JFK from getting assassinated or make sure Hitler stayed in art school. You saved your mommy. You missed her. [starts kicking Flash] And in a supreme act of selfishness shattered history like a rank amateur, turned the world into a living hell moments away from destruction and I'm the villain?
    The Flash: And yet, you're the one who killed her, Thawne, you sick asshole...
    Batman: Judge Dent was kidnapped last night. Where did the Joker take him?
    Yo-Yo: Even if I did know, it wouldn't do you any good, Bats. He's probably already dead.
    Batman: Then so are you.
    [Batman throws Yo-Yo off the roof]
    The Flash: Bruce's Batplane was a little more stoic.
    Batman: Your Batman didn't have to ferry high rollers with deep pockets in and out of his casino.
    Cyborg: So he wouldn't need a fully stocked bar aboard.
    Batman: Everything is top shelf. Help yourself.
    Cyborg: I don't drink.
    The Flash: Shocking.
