  • Black Adam, when Sand tells the JSA to "scatter".
    Black Adam: Black Adam does not "scatter"!
    *Cue him being literally stomped on.*
  • When Kendra travels to Ancient Egypt, she meets Chay-Ara, her ancestor and kind of herself.
    Chay-Ara: You look familiar. Have we met before?
    Kendra: Sort of. Damn this is creepy.
  • Lightning taking her frustration about her Power Incontinence out on Gog while shouting "I want to drive a car". Ted Grant even comments on her weird Battle Cry.
  • In a fairly early issue, Black Adam and Atom Smasher have an arm-wrestling match. The table they have it on loses.
  • After Obsidian is brought back to life by a time-travelling Mister Terrific, the first thing he does is troll Alan Scott:
    Obsidian: No side-effects if my disability, except that I'm no longer gay, of course. That's right dad! I'm cured! Isn't that great?
    *Awkward looks from the assembled JSA members*
    Obsidian: Relax folks, only kidding. Still gay.
  • In JSA #54, the team is sitting down to a Thanksgiving dinner with the Justice League of America, only for the dinner to get destroyed by a pair of villains;
    Kulak: At last! I will have my revenge on the Justice Society! You thought Kulak the Sorcerer forever imprisoned! But with the help of the Warlock of Ys, I have escaped, and the world will be ours!
    Warlock: Together we will crush the Justice League, my sworn enemies! The Earth will tremble before us and you will—[facing two teams of supremely cheesed-off superheroes] One...two...three...four...there's quite a few more here than we thought aren't there?
    Kulak: Maybe we should excuse ourselves. They were sitting down to eat...
    Alan Scott: Superman?
    Superman[cracking his knuckles]: After you.
    • The teams end up ordering pizzas.
  • After half the team splintered off to form the secondary team, the JSA All-Stars, Jesse and Rick opted to go on separate teams in order to ensure the two teams had a tether. Everyone else, though, assumed it was because they were having marital problems, and kept trying to give Jesse their condolences about their divorce, which pissed Jesse off. After she gave Mid-Nite an ear-full, Mister Terrific (who is still recovering from being stabbed and had just gotten out of a wheelchair) interrupted her when she was in the middle of talking to Rick on the phone, to give her his condolences.
    Jesse: (off-panel, screaming) FOR THE LAST TIME! Rick and I ARE NOT SPLITTING UP!
    Jay: (Seeing Michael running by right after hearing the scream) Michael? What are you doing out of your wheelchair?
    Michael: (sprinting past with the biggest Oh, Crap! face) Running for my life. Can I walk with you two? Jesse will be joining us shortly, after she—well—Apparently someone said something that upset her.
