* Moarte and Linkara continue to bicker LikeAnOldMarriedCouple in ''Bart Simpson's Treehouse of Horror #3'':
-->'''Moarte:''' I'm much older than I look, my children, I've gotta tell you, I'm in my prime!\\
'''Linkara:''' (''offscreen'') You sleep most of the year.\\
'''Moarte:''' And ''you suck'' all of the year!
** The peanut gallery in the Youtube comments only makes it funnier:
--->'''Youtube Commenter:''' Mom, Dad, stop yelling at each other.

He can't even muster up his usual IncomingHam tendencies, instead simply walking in from offscreen with a bemused scowl while idiosyncratic music plays in the background.
-->'''Moarte:''' So uh... got a ''weird one'' for you today, my children. Few stories combine... er, [[ShapedLikeItself all of the stuff that's in this one]].

Added DiffLines:
* Anytime Moarte drops his LargeHam voice and says anything in a close-to-normal tone is hilarious. For example, in the ''Manga/{{Uzumaki}} vol. 1'' review, he states the name of the town in the story. On the possibility that he may have mispronounced the name, Moarte's response?
-->'''Moarte:''' My children, I don't speak Japanese. Give me a break here.
* When talking about the ''Franchise/FridayThe13th'' franchise, he mentions ''Film/JasonX'' in a rather unimpressed manner.
-->'''Moarte:''' ...Including that one where he went into space and became a killer cyborg. That happened too.
* The joke from the ''Uzumaki'' review returns in the review of ''Howard Lovecraft and the Frozen Kingdom''.
-->'''Moarte:''' What's that? I did not pronounce the city name correctly? 1.) It's how it's spelled in the book. 2.) If I don't speak Japanese, what the hell makes you think I speak Old One?
* In ''Poe'', Moarte notes that he thinks being undead is great and that he's doing pretty well for himself. [[MundaneLuxury He has a table and everything!]]
* Moarte's utter bafflement at the ''Killdozer'' comic, opening with his usual "Hello, my children" in an unsure and confused manner. He introduces the comic saying, "I've got to admit, we've got a weird one today... It's the Killdozer comic." He later goes to say, "Admittedly, the idea of a killer bulldozer may seem silly... and it is..."
* In the ''Wrath of the Spectre'', the Spectre's costume is just a pair of green underpants and a cape.
-->'''Moarte:''' What? When you're God's angel of death and wrath and punishment and stuff, I think you're allowed to wear whatever the hell you want.
* In the Reiko the Zombie Shop review, after explaining that most necromancers can only summon one specific zombie, Moarte gives us this gem: "It's like Pokemon! But with corpses."
* The third episode for 2013 ends with him hefting a sword and declaring he's going to fight something truly scary: a tax collector. Funny on its own, but then he charges off-screen yelling, [[LargeHam "FOR THE LONGBOX!"]]
* In his review of Teen Titans Annual #1, after a woman [[{{Squick}} stuffs a cat in a blender]], he says this.
-->'''Moarte:''' Horrific, yes, but damn impressive. You ever try to get a cat to do something it doesn't want to do? The thing turns into, like, an out of control slinky or something.
* At the end of the Hellsing review for 2013, Moarte notices that there's something familiar about [[{{Alucard}} Alucard's name and proceeds to spell it backwards]]. And what does he discover?
-->'''Moarte:''' BY THE LONGBOX!!! [[Film/{{Troll2}} NILBOG IS GOBLIN SPELLED BACKWARDS!!!]] HOLY CRAP!!!
** From the same review, he makes a not so subtle allusion to ''WebVideo/HellsingUltimateAbridged''.
--->'''Moarte:''' The ladies love big guns, particularly cannons.
* In the review of ''Dracula Everlasting'', Moarte notes the similarity between this interpretation of Dracula and [[Series/DoctorWho Time Lords]].
** What's even funnier is what makes him realize it, since said story has [[Anime/YuGiOh a locket containing a spirit able to reenter the body and regenerate]]. Sound familiar?
* The deadpan "praise" of the Deathtube joke from ''Zombo''.
* From ''Star Trek'' Issues 4 and 5, when Moarte mentions Chekov and Sulu fencing, he adds, "Get your minds out of the gutters, children!"
* He opens the video on ''Captain America'' #326 by singing the propaganda tune from ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger''.
* From the ''Comicbook/FreddyVsJasonVsAsh'' sequel, a small excerpt from one sentence becomes hilarious if you are aware of the popular Yaoi ships in the Franchise/PowerRangers fandom: "Jason wants Tommy..."
* In the new intro, the grave the Longbox is buried in has a tombstone that says "ComicBook/OneMoreDay". There's also one that says [[ComicBook/CountdowntoFinalCrisis "Here Lies Countdown"]].
* He opens his review of ''8-Bit Zombie'' with "[[VideoGame/SuperMarioBros1 doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doot]], [[SubvertedCatchPhrase my children]]."
* In the review of "Night of the Living Dead: Just a Girl" he comments that he wouldn't be surprised if [[InsaneTrollLogic Mr. Cooper's logic]] says that Karen caused the zombie apocalypse.
* From "Tales of Supernatural Laws" we have this:
-->'''Moarte:''' Order! Order! Court is now in session, my children. Beware the creatures of the night, [[EvilLawyerJoke they have lawyers]]!
* The TakeThat to Internet comments in The Witching Hour.
* "[[ObligatoryJoke I am told that]] ComicBook/ManThing [[DoubleEntendre is quite]] [[MemeticMutation giant sized.]] [[LampshadeHanging I sure hope I am the first person ever to make that joke.]]"
* Moarte's summer attire? A bright orange Hawaiian shirt.
* For the 2016 Midsummer's Nightmare, Moarte has been replaced with a Rod Serling-esque host-complete with a calm, collected tone of voice that makes any [[DeadpanSnarker wisecracks]] all the more hilarious. At least, until the end of the final episode, which sees the Host painfully transforming into Moarte himself.
* Moarte's sheer disbelief at the story of the comic Satan Six, which had cameos by Creator/LloydKaufman, [[Literature/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame Quasimodo]], [[Franchise/FridayThe13th Jason Voorhees]], and Wolf and Bird, Counselor of the Macabre.
* Moarte reluctantly reviews a Barbie comic.
* Linkara bursts in on him during his review of the ''Nightmare on Elm Street: Freddy's War'' comics (looking for a projection of Freddy Krueger created by his preliminary opponent in the Contest of Champions).
-->'''Linkara:''' Ah-HA!\\
(Long beat)\\
'''Moarte:''' You can go now.\\
'''Linkara:''' Sorry.\\
'''Moarte:''' Idiot.
* Moarte is utterly flabbergastered when he finds a Barbie comic in his box.
-->'''Moarte:''' ...I feel like the trick is on me today.
** According to Moarte, sleepwalking can be caused by a lack of sleep, or by being possessed by an immortal outer god overcome by the pointlessness of its own existence... But he wouldn't know anything about that.
* In ''Camp Midnight'', human girl Skye bluffs to her monster campmates that she wouldn't want to show her (non-existent) real monster form, because it's "the worst kind of creature you can imagine".
-->'''Moarte:''' Ahhhh... [[AcceptableTargets A Youtube commenter.]]
* In ''Jungi Ito's Fragments of Horror'' when he sees that the first story is titled ''Futon'', he points off-screen and wonders if they're talking about "that idiot over there". [[spoiler:Note that this episode is taking place in Linkara's new house, and the futon's new position is right near Moarte's set in the same room.]]
-->'''Linkara:''' ''[off-screen]'' Eat a dick, Moarte!\\
'''Moarte:''' Eat mine! It's seven feet long and made of spiders!
* Moarte gives a pretty nasty burn to the House of Mouse when he brings out an adaptation of one of the most famous vampire stories ever staring said Mouse:
-->'''Moarte:''' Oh, great. So Disney's so obsessed with obtaining every single franchise on the planet, now they've got ''Dracula''?! ''[{{Beat}}]'' Actually, Mickey Mouse starring as Dracula would be pretty apt.
* When the Nazi scientist in ''Giant Monster'' turns against the military he's working for, Moarte has some commentary.
-->'''Moarte:''' Well, if you can't trust the Nazis... You can never trust them, they're Nazis.
* In ''Immortal Hulk'' vol. 1, when Jackie [=McGee=] and Walter Langkowski (aka the Sasquatch) hear that the Devil Hulk was last sighted in Minnesota...
-->'''Moarte:''' Hey, the Hulk should have stopped in here to say hi! [[AsideComment Better company than the other jackass who lives here...]]\\
'''Linkara:''' ''[off-screen]'' I hate you!\\
'''Moarte:''' I hate you, too! That Clive Sinclair guy is much cooler than you are!
* In ''The Vessel of Terror'', Shania attacks Lars and Richard with a scalpel under the influence of the giant squid the crew took onboard, then mumbles afterwards that it wasn't her. Moarte comes to the obvious conclusion:
-->'''Moarte:''' Oh no! The squid is a [[MasterOfDisguise disguise artist]]!
