Comic character catchphrases?

[Anthonynotes]

Catchphrases... they used to be frequently used by comic book characters, but nowadays, they've been mostly tossed aside in favor of (from what I saw in that "Teen Titans" comic I bought last week) figuring out ways of squeezing three uses of the word "hell" into one page (in the name of "being realistic" ;-) )...

That said, what catchphrases have we seen our favorite characters use over the years?

To kick off:

Superman:
"Great Scott!" - which he still sporadically used in the 90's, at least...
"Great Krypton!" - often used in 70's stories.
"Rao!" - guess not a catchphrase but more "taking the Kryptonian Lord's name in vain" type thing, also big in 70's comics.
"This is a job for Superman!"

Flash:
"Great thunder!" - in Silver Age stories, though saw Jay Garrick use it as recently as the late 90's

Green Lantern
"Great Guardians!" - more Silver Age usage.

Wonder Woman:
"Suffering Sappho!"
"Hera, give me strength!"

Great topic! Here are my favorites (that were also my high school yearbook quotes):

"It's clobberin' time!" - The Thing

"Titans Together!" - Teen Titans

"Avengers Assemble!" - The Avengers

Also Thing likes to say "Sheesh" and "What a revoltin' development"

[Shawn Hopkins]

"Ut!" - Flaming Carrot
"Spoooon!" - The Tick
"Curse You Reed Richards!" - Dr. Doom
"Die for Darkseid" and "Darkseid is" - big on Apokolips
"Oh my stars and Garters" - Beast
"To me, my X-Men" - Professor X
"I'm the best I am at what I do" and "Snikt"- Wolverine
"Holey Moley" - Captain Marvel
"X'Hal!" - Starfire's blasphemy
"Crom!" - Conan's version
"Great Caesar's ghost!" - Perry White, they recently tried to replace it with the much lamer "Great shades of Elvis!"
"To me, my board" - Silver Surfer
And one of the best:
"Let's get sticky!" Mucilage Man

[Fett One]

"Flame on" - Human Torch

"Madder Hulk get, stronger Hulk get" - Hulk

"Hulk smash" - Hulk

[wonderfly]

"Criminals are a superstitious and cowardly lot"-Bruce Wayne

"With Great Power..." oh, you know the rest...

Up, Up, and Away!

Ah, I remember "Great Shades of Elvis"---the catchphrase of the Perry White on "Lois and Clark" (which the comics tried to adapt as well---a mercifully short-lived attempt [can recall Perry yelling it during "Zero Hour" when he vanished due to wacky timestream-erasing hijinks...]).

>>"Oh my stars and Garters" - Beast

Think he must've borrowed that one from Bullwinkle, since I recall him saying that. :-)

More catchphrases:

"Land's sakes!" - Ma Kent

"Jeepers!" - Jimmy Olsen

"Old chum" - Batman (in the Golden and early Silver Ages, at least, with very rare usage in the 70's comics IIRC)

"Leapin' lettuce!" - Captain Carrot

[John Pannozzi]

Dr. Banner/Hulk: "Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry".
Casey Jones (TMNT): "Goongala!"
