Atomic Robo/Funny

"Dr. Dinosaur: That is for me to know and for you to die!
 * Stephen Hawking traps Robo on a year long flight to Mars, with nothing to do or read, and Robo doesn't have a sleep mode.
 * Atomic Robo and Dr. Dinosaur squabble over grammar:

Robo: That's not even a sentence.

Dr. Dinosaur: The simple mammalian subject and predicate were both represented! I challenge your claim."

"Dr. Dinosaur: I knew you would be here, Atomic Hobo! Witness how I have deconstructed your name into an insult."
 * Also in the companion story Why Atomic Robo Hates Dr.Dinosaur, Dr. Dinosaur surrendered to Atomic Robo and gave him his crystals he was going to use for time travel... . The silent look of pure hate on Robo'S face and the look of smug superiority on Dr. Dinosaur is hilarious.
 * And again:

"Dr. Dinosaur: Shut up! I hacked your mainframe and downloaded your itinerary. Yes! All of your computerized scheduling secrets are now mine!
 * Let's just say: everything involving Dr. Dinosaur.
 * Another couple brilliant ones from the 2011 Free Comic Book Day story:

Atomic Robo: You joined our newsletter!

Dr. Dinosaur: You can't prove that!"

"One Week Ago...
 * After Robo questions how Dr. Dinosaur got guns it flashes back to...

Alonso (of "Alonso's Gun Hut"): 'Fraid I'm going to have to see some I.D.

Beat

Dr. Dinosaur: holds up a book labeled "Big Book of Dinosaurs", flips it open to a page showing his species

Alonso: Awright, let's ring y'up.

end flashback

Dr. Dinosaur: In a perfectly legal manner is how!

Atomic Robo: Moreover, how'd you get to America?

Dr. Dinosaur: Bah! I can travel in both time and relative dimensions in space!

Emma: That's the TARDIS!

Atomic Robo: Who're you?

Emma: Emma. He stole my science fair project and now he's doing Doctor Who references at you!

Dr. Dinosaur: It is only a coincidence! I do not even know who Tom Baker is!"

"Dr.Dinosaur: BEHOLD! AN ORDINARY MOTORIST!."
 * Best of all. Dr dinosaur is one of the few "Villains" that keep outsmarting Robo and his team (several times including Jenkins) in every encounter, leaving the Team either stranded or beaten. It infuriates and shames Robo to no end.

"Dr. Dinosaur: From Hell's heart I spam at thee!"
 * From one of the recent "Real Science Adventures" stories:

"Carl Sagan: Robo, I think I'm insane now."
 * In volume #3 of The Shadow from Beyond, after Atomic Robo managed to cage the beast and is waiting until morning, Robo goes to read a book of Temporal Mechanics... until four panels later where he switches to a Conan The barbarian comic. Made funnier because he is complaining about a wizard, a species that he professed to detest.
 * Also, Carl Sagan's Oh Crap response to the Eldritch Abomination.

"1926!Robo: What if we do something we didn't do before?
 * Much to the exasperation of his future selves, 1926!Robo has a bit of trouble getting to grips with the idea that the same event is happening only once, but from different perspectives:

1957!Robo: It's not like that. This is only happening once, we're just witnessing it from different points in our life.

1926!Robo: Banana oil.

2009!Robo: Yeah, that's the third time I've heard you say that, not counting the time I was you when I said it, and every time I say this: shut up and listen, the adults are talking."

"Tesladyne Scientist: Robo, there's a pyramid in Egypt!
 * In the first volume, we get this gem:

Beat.

Robo: Yes, thank you, that's super."

"Robo: I didn't start this company all those years ago to not nuke things!
 * From the same story we get this:

Action Scientist: They didn't even have nukes when you started this company.

Robo: Yes, but shut up."

"Robo: You're exhausted, I can read your brainwaves with my special robot eyes.
 * At the end of it:

Action Scientist: Really?

Robo: Of course not. the fact that you even believed that proves how tired you are!"


 * During Robo's first fight against the Eldritch Abomination, he gets a call from Tesla and has to pretend that the fighting noises are just from a radio show he's listening to. Hilarity Ensues.
