The Killer: Modus Vivendi #4
Killer – What do you think of all this shit in Venezuela?
Katia – The CIA helped those army sobs overthrow Chavez because he nationalized oil, but they didn’t expect that kind of reaction from the people, and they don’t know what to do. Shows times are changing.
Killer – How’s that?
Katia – A few years ago, they would’ve killed him right off, like Allende. They haven’t killed him yet; they’re not sure what step to take next. They’re afraid the whole region will rebel. That’s good. They can’t do what they want anymore.

Brightest Day #5
Aquaman – They said it’d take weeks to find something that could withstand pressures at 5,000 feet so they could fix this leak. But they didn’t count on us, Mera.
Mera – The owners of this rig might be begging someone to clean up their reckless mess, but they won’t like our shutting down all their wells.

Sparta U.S.A. #5
Narrator – Here in Sparta, we love our homes. “A Spartan’s home is his castle.” The great Ronald Reagan said that. If I’m remembering my American Patriots class right. Folks around here’d die defending their homes.

Choice Quotes
DoomWar #5
Reed – We have nothing that is actionable in world court. To invade Latveria without substantive proof would be an act of war.

Choice Quotes
Secret Warriors #17
Sitwell – China… well, let’s see… it’s essentially operating with a two class system that was erected under a socialist regime, but is now propped up by a neo-capitalist economic class. It’s also burdened by overpopulation and a rapidly growing senior class which is poised to undo much of the financial growth achieved in recent years. In my opinion, the situation is somewhat precarious… sketchy.

Lauren – You’d suggest what, Greg? To have him executed on the spot without due process?
Choice Quotes

Superman: War of the Supermen #4
Lois Lane – One Kryptonian came to Earth and helped make it a better place. We made hm our greatest hero. 100,000 Kryptonians came and they were seen as a threat. They were met with suspicion, hatred, and eventually, death. We — humanity — were incapable of accepting what they had to offer, accepting that change, so we lashed out at them. Destroyed them. Someday I hope humankind will be more receptive to change, to living as a “melting pot” of people and cultures. To set aside suspicions and live together peacefully. Sometimes that seems like an impossible goal. For now, though, all we can do is hold to that hope… and let the dream for a better world sustain us.
