Definitely "I am ________!". Claremont abuses this phrase so much it aint even funny. Ah well, I like Claremont anyway.

"Vengeance will be mine!" "For truth, justice and the American way!" "Haiya!" and "For (insert name of lover here)" or...*shudders* "NEVER!!!!!!!!" (I hate that one.)

"Up, Up, and Away!"-- Superman...ya, we know you can fly!

"Great Hera!" --tired already Wonder Woman! Get a new expression of surprise.

Robin! To the Batmobile!...ok so that isn't in the books. But it sure was in the campy 60's TV show!:urg

**EDIT**

Not quite sure what the poll voting means above Bamfman. I voted other and...:ooh I don't get it? 2) Ladyhawke **Northstars Love** Why does it say that Bamfman? I don't understand....:? Please explain .

If you wanted one specifically from the X-Men, what was it Colossus used to say all the time, By the White Wolf? That used to really annoy me.

how about Wolverine's "I'm the best there is at what i do"
& speaking about batman- i remember seeing one of the movies & one of the worst lines was Robin's "holy rusted metal, batman"

I get real tired of villians going, "You may have beaten [fill in baddie's name here], but you won't defeat me!":ick
Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided, but forever we'll be free.
So sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we,
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins.

I'll have to agree... "By the White Wolf!" always annoyed me. but "Sum totality of her psychic power" or whatever Psylocke's bit was definately takes the cake

"I've got a bad feeling about this..." :D Couldn't resist...

I always got kindof annoyed when Wolverine says "Bub, where I come from, them's fightin' words". It was cute the first time, but give us a break already.

Evo Wolverine. Hate 'im. I know that seems a little off topic, but really it isn't. He says "bub" so much, that I can practically say his sentences before he does. Even if I haven't seen the episode before. -_-
"I am Phil, Prince of Insufficient light! I darn you to Heck!!" :devil

"Quick, get the video camera! The Professor's sloshed and he's doing wheelies in the rose garden!"

"It's just a flesh wound!"

I roll my eyes when they announce their names. "You have defeated Ororo Munroe ... but you cannot defeat STORM!!!!!"

Bamfman, if you'll post what the poll should have been, I'll see if I can fix it.

The worst super hero line ever has got to be Robins "Holy hole in the doughnut" from the TV series.
When it comes to X-men I agree that most of what Wolverine says becomes pretty anoying after a while.
In the early Claremont years the X-men, when they cursed, used to say "What the blazes", that is an iritating phase.

Ever play Freedom Force? If not, you're missing out - great Silver Age-feel superhero game, sequel due out in the fall ... Anyway, The Minuteman's teen sidekick, Liberty Lad, would intermittently shout "I'm itchin' for a tussle!" Oh how I cringed.

You know.. he.. is.. technically a villian... but when the infamous MagsBunny says his trademarked catchphrase "When I was your age!" my mind screams "Nooooooooo!!!" and i run for the hills.

Believe it or not, they actually got "Holy guano canal!" past the censors for the TV show.... :whistle

I think what I have to be tired of isn't so much a superhero tag line as the "Xmen Creed": anything that mentions "protecting a world that fears and hates us." :yech I. Am. SO. Tired. Of. That.
