Quotes 

• Captain Boomerang : Ah, so we'll make our way there, pretty as you please, then maybe a picnic lunch and the Justice League will give us a ride home. We may as well be storming Heaven's Gate itself.

  The Clock King : Unlike Heaven, this tower has a duty roster. One I've studied thoroughly. I've scheduled your visit for when they're at their weakest.

  Captain Boomerang : Define "weakest", please.

• Priest : There's still time, Mr. Lawton. Are you sure you don't want me to pray for you?

  Deadshot : I'm sure. But if it comforts you, padre, by all means.

  [he's led into the electric chair chamber] 

  Deadshot : Huh. My chair's already taken. Guess we'll have to come back tomorrow.

  Warden : Who are you? What is this? You can't just come in here and...

  [he's handed a piece of paper and gives it a once-over] 

  Warden : Release the prisoner.

  Prison Guard : But...

  Warden : Release him!

  Deadshot : [his restraints are removed]  What if I don't want to go with him?

  Rick Flagg Jr. : Then you can go and take your seat, tough guy.

• The Clock King : Just three major obstacles. First, Captain Atom. His abilities include flight, super-strength, and absorption of radioactivity. Green Lantern; his power ring enables him to create objects by thinking about them. Then there's J'onn J'onzz, the Martian Manhunter.

  Plastique : What about him?

  The Clock King : Super-strength, flight.

  Deadshot : And he's a shape-shifter, and he can read minds. I've run into him before.

  Captain Boomerang : Heh! The chair's startin' to look better every minute.

• Rick Flagg Jr. : No unnecessary killing.

  Captain Boomerang : Oh, come on!

  Rick Flagg Jr. : You kill someone, they find the body, sound the alarm, and we're trapped.

  The Clock King : Or you take the time to hide the body so they don't find it. Time we don't have to waste.

  Deadshot : [yawning]  Speaking of the time...

  Rick Flagg Jr. : Plenty of time to sleep in the grave, which is where we could all wind up if just one of us misses his mark.
