Shooter era:

"Whatever it takes"

"It's all jazz and I can play it"

"If one of us is god it's me, baby"

Post Shooter:

I'm paraphrasing because I can't access my comic collection but, from the conversations in Shadowman between Darque and Sandria, I remember a few little gems that go something like this:

"The world has sullied itself with complacency, I am to cleanse it...with evil." -Darque

"Because it amuses me and because I can" -Darque to Sandria on why he is using his power to impose his will on others.

"Atleast in my youth vulgarity was easier on the ears" -Darque to Sandria in a conversation comparing modern music to the classic theatre that Darque prefers.

"You're bored, dear brother, and that makes you dangerous" -Sandria to Darque

And one additional Darque quote:

"If there is a hell then my name would be...sir. But on this fleshly sphere I am known as Darque, Master Darque" -from the BWS Eternal Warrior issues

I could be wrong, since it is from memory (too lazy to look it up) but wasn't it "I need no more acclaim?"

You're right, that was a great line. Aric was one of the great sources for lines before they started trying too hard.

Howzabout:

Archer: The sisters of doom are in fact the brothers of doom.

Armstrong: How'd you know that, x-ray vision?

Archer: Don't be ridiculous.

(Pardon the paraphrase, I'm 400 miles from my comics and will be for the next week.)

to bads thats not possible. since he was raised underwater, and only by a robot, he would have no accent. especially no known human one.


Armstrong: Okay, what am I doing now?

Archer: That is gross, Mr. Armstrong

Armstrong: You really can see in the dark!

Sure its possible, people move to other countries all the time and after a few years they start to take on the accent of people around them. If Magnus is ever published again, the editors will have to inject a few more 'eh?'s in his dialogue. :P
