Episode Quotes
 
Superman: Each of you brings something different to the table. Strength. Speed. Stealth. Whatever. But we are all equal in just one way. Each of us is willing to make the sacrifices a hero needs to make, even the ultimate one. Since there are so many of us, we have a chance to do more than put out fires, both literal and figurative. We can be proactive, we can do some real good in the world. But we are going to be organized. J'onn will be up here keeping an eye on everything. He'll be deciding who's going where and when. I know a lot of you are used to making those decisions for yourself. But from now on, we have to be more coordinated than that. We can't be cowboys any more... or cowgirls.
 
Green Arrow: C'mon, I don't belong up here, fighting monsters and aliens and supervillians. I just help the little guy. And a big club like this, you tend to forget all about him. So gee whiz, I'm flattered to be asked and all. But no thanks.
Batman: Suit yourself.... those monsters you don't fight? They tend to step on little guys.
 
Supergirl: Why don't you take the stick out, Corporal?
Captain Atom: Captain.
 
Green Arrow: Is that a containment suit?
Captain Atom: Uh-huh. I'm not flesh and blood anymore, just living energy.
Green Arrow: That wouldn't be nuclear energy, would it?
Captain Atom: With a name like Captain Atom, what do you think?
Green Arrow: I think you're what I marched against back in college.
 
Green Lantern: If you see anything, don't try to engage.
Captain Atom: Roger that.
Green Lantern: Ummm, you can just say "Okay."
Captain Atom: Okay.
 
Supergirl: I've just about had it with you guys. You've got 'til the count of five - 1, 4...
 
Supergirl: So, aren't you going to give me the "You did good" speech?
Green Lantern: You're headstrong, unprofessional, and reckless. If you ever jeopardize yourself or your teammates again by running off half-cocked without a battle plan, I will personally see you're kicked out of the League. I don't care who your cousin is. And incidentally... you did good.
 
Green Arrow: I still don't think I belong up here.
Batman: That's the point. Someone like you will keep us honest.
Green Arrow: Gee, Bats, I don't know. Don't get me wrong. I enjoy a good radiation burn as much as the next guy...

Captain Atom
When his body was cut open and he flew into to space to explode, it was redone in DC Comics Identify Crisis series with Firestorm. In fact this episode aired before the issue was released and was the reason why Firestorm was not in the series.
