"[In an alternate reality] A world without The Flash. I spent every day of my life dreamin' of what that would be like. But here...it ain't pretty, West. - Wonderland"

"Director James Gunn has confirmed fan suspicions that Marvel hero Adam Warlock makes a cameo (in cocoon form) in Marvel's latest offering Guardians of the Galaxy. … Adam Warlock is a character created to be the perfect human at a scientific installation called The Beehive. … We know that Marvel are working towards a film which will bring everyone together as Thanos (Josh Brolin) threatens existence itself once he acquires the Infinity Stones and places them in the Infinity Gauntlet. … This is believed to be Marvel's plan for Avengers 3, which is still some years off. When it does happen it will be an adaptation of Marvel's The Infinity Gauntlet comic, in which Adam Warlock plays a pivotal role. His cocoon was first spotted in the credits scene of Thor: The Dark World, which saw characters from that film visit The Collector's base aboard the space station Knowhere. During the course of Gunn's movie, the Guardians encounter The Collector and bring to him an orb which he reveals to be an Infinity Stone. While explaining their origins, The Collector's red-skinned assistant touches the stone, levelling the entire room and destroying most of what is inside. … The film's post-credits scene shows The Collector sitting among his ruins … In the background of this scene we see that the cocoon is broken, meaning Adam Warlock has escaped and is now walking around Marvel's cinematic universe — most likely to show up Gunn's 2017 Guardians sequel."

"Adam Warlock, a being who wished nothing more than to spend the rest of his days within the peaceful environment of the Soul Gem. He now possesses the Infinite Power and the responsibility that goes with it. While I, whose entire life was dedicated to the pursuit of power, now find myself scraping out a living from the soil. Irony worthy of the drama. Yet strangely enough though, I envy not Adam Warlock. Somehow I feel, that in the long run, Thanos of Titan came out ahead in this particular deal."

"I seek not revenge. Advice is what I crave."

"I am the type who sees the future and is held prisoner by it. How many times has this little drama repeated itself to me..?"

"Time is a repeating loop to me now."

"I am off to shed my Godhood."

"Already, the distance between what I was and am is insurmountable — like an ant contemplating the Cosmos. I knew it would be so … yet still I hoped. I guess there is really nothing left to say."

"I don't know if this team will work or not. All I know is it MUST. Time is critical. I see clearly now why I've been reborn. We haven't got long. Years if we're lucky, months if we're not."

"I begin a journey mapped out amidst the stars. 'Tis a path I cannot stray from —"

"In a short while, we confront Thanos, a being of unimaginable power whose sole goal is the destruction of all life. … Extreme measures may be called for in dealing with him. You and the Hulk have an outlook on death the others do not share … except for Doom, but he cannot be trusted."

"We tried to do this the easy way — and we failed. Now begins the conflict I strove to avoid. It may well prove to be a battle the Universe cannot survive! Eternity, it is now your turn."

"Naked power is seldom the answer to any problem. Surely you must know that even this group's combined might is nothing compared to the force Thanos wields. Only a richly complex and skillfully executed strategy will insure your survival. Time is short and I have such a plan."

"I was part of the Soul Gem while you possessed it, which permitted me access to your inner heart. I know you as no other being in the universe does, better than even you do, yourself."

"Short time?! You fool, it's been an eternity! During that time, everything I've ever cared for or accomplished has fallen into ruin ! Everyone I've ever loved now lies dead! My life has been a failure! I welcome its end."

"In my time many called me Adam Warlock. You may do so also, if you feel so inclined."

"Let the conflict END!"

"There are forces at work you do not perceive. I weave a delicate strategy which rash actions could rend. Patience, please."

"Someone told me once … long ago … that men would call me Warlock!"

"Sculptor of worlds! Is it your voice I hear? If so, then speak ... and Warlock shall heed!"

"You have not called me here merely to praise yourself. Then why have you done so ... when there are things I must do on the planet you created?"

"The way ahead is long ... and dangerous. I'll have no one with me who doesn't want to come."

"I am now The Supreme Being, seek not to dispute that claim."

"When I finished with Captain Marvel I had turned him from a warrior into a mystic. Adam Warlock was a mystical messiah. Where to go from there? Decided to reverse course and turn him into a suicidal paranoid/schizophrenic, which was the way I was feeling at the time. I’ve always used my work to examine what is currently going on in my own life. It’s cheaper than going to a shrink."

"I had some trepidation about the Christ parallels, but I hoped there would be little outcry if I handled it tastefully, since I was not really making any serious statement on religion... at least not overtly."

"Ooh hoo hoo hoo! I extracted some good samples that time."

"My analysis of you is 78 percent complete... can I get a bit more cooperation?"

"It means nothing to me, but you're welcome. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to go."

"Empire? A team? You must be joking. I'm not that kind of girl."

"That type of monster shouldn't live in this place. Why was it here? (when defeating Hydron)"

"What!? Even a human can turn into a monster.....Is this related to the empire too?"

"You lack but these things: power, speed, technique, spirit sense, endurance, and talent. (SVC Chaos - when defeating Dan)"

"It's a huge marine creature. I must defeat you. (when ready to battle Hydron - Red Earth (Warzard in Japan))"

"?! What was all that?! I must do that again... you can't rest now. Let's go!"

"You were tougher than predicted. I must amend my data."

"It looks like I sleighed him..."

"Damian Cray to Rider: Do you know the most evil thing in the world? Rider to Cray: Is that including or not including you?"

"I'm sorry you were bullied at school, but lots of kids get bullied and they don't turn into psychopaths."

"If you want a round of applause, you'll have to take off the handcuffs."

"I thought you were going to kill me, not bore me to death!"

"Green Arrow: That's right, Lantern... apologize. Grovel in front of that walking mummy. You call yourself a hero! Chum, you don't even qualify as a man. You're no more than a puppet... and the Guardians pull your strings. Listen... forget about chasing around the galaxy! And remember America. It's a good country... beautiful... fertile... and terribly sick! There are children dying, honest people cowering in fear, disillusioned kids ripping up campuses. On the streets of Memphis a good black man died... and in Los Angeles, a good white man fell. Something is wrong. Something is killing us all! Some hideous moral cancer is rotting our very souls."

"I picked out the name from the train man on the tracks who was waving a lantern, going from red to green.... Green meant go and I decided that was it. Then I needed a colorful and interesting costume. I was interested in Greek mythology and so the costume took on elements of that. It just all fell into place. When I sent it in, I waited into the second week before I heard the word to come in. I was ushered into Mr. [[w:Max Gaines|[Max] Gaines]] office, publisher, and after sitting a long time and flipping through the pages of my presentation, he announced, 'We like it!' And then, 'Get to work!' I did the first five pages of an eight page story, and then they called in Bill Finger to help. We worked on it for seven years."

"In loudest din or hush profound My ears catch evil's slightest sound Let those who toll out evil's knell Beware my power, the F-Sharp Bell!"

"Green Arrow: Like what you've seen? Listen, I hope you enjoyed playing super-hero out there...I hope it did a lot of good for your ego."

"I shall shed my light over dark evil. For the dark things cannot stand the light, The light of the Green Lantern!"

"In days of peace, in nights of war Obey the Laws forever more Misconduct must be answered for Swear us the chosen: The Alpha Corps!"

"In brightest day, in blackest night, No evil shall escape my sight Let those who worship evil's might, Beware my power...Green Lantern's light!"

"In forest dark or glade beferned, No blade of grass shall go unturned Let those who have the daylight spurned Tread not where this green lamp has burned."
