Quotes 

• Val-El : Well, I believe I found the problem.

  Adam Strange : You're shitting me.

  Val-El : That's repulsive, and I most certainly am not.

• Adam Strange : Oh, I'd - I'd offer you a drink, but what'd be the point? You're not a real boy.

  Val-El : I appreciate the tactful reminder. You seem what distressed. Is there anything I can assist you with?

  Adam Strange : Oh, can you shoot lasers from your eyes and bench press the Sun?

  Val-El : I'm afraid that's beyond my capabilities.

• Adam Strange : I was an idiot to think I could save him.

  Val-El : Who?

  Adam Strange : Big Blue, the Boy Scout, the Man of Steel. God, he's got a lot of nicknames. You know why? He's a hero. Heroes get nicknames.

  Val-El : What was your nickname?

  Adam Strange : I don't have one.

  Val-El : You said you're a great hero of your planet.

  Adam Strange : I lied. Apparently, that's my superpower - lying. No, I'm a wannabe. D-lister. Can't fly, have no super strength, no power ring. No, the only thing I had going for me was that Zeta-Beam device, and now that's broken. God, I suck.

• Val-El : No, the device's photonic discharge cells were damaged.

  Adam Strange : Well, can you fix it?

  Val-El : I already have.

  Adam Strange : So... I can leave?

  Val-El : If that's your choice. But tell me something first. If you're not a real hero, as you claim to be, why'd you come here in the first place?

  Adam Strange : Because I thought I could become one. I thought that if I could just save Superman, then the Justice League would have to notice me and maybe even people would look up to me. And maybe, just maybe, when I look in that mirror, I wouldn't see a loser staring back at me. That's all gone now.

  Val-El : Whatever happened between you and Seg can be fixed. He may be stubborn, but he knows a true friend when he finds one.

  Adam Strange : Ah, there's no fixing this.

  Val-El : Adam, Adam. No matter what you think about yourself, being a hero is not about... It's not about strength or having extraordinary capabilities. It's about making the decision to help others. Now, regardless of the reason, you chose to come here. You can still set things right. Hmm?

  Adam Strange : You're right. I can. There's something here I still need to do.

  Val-El : And what's that?

  Adam Strange : Kill General Zod and prevent Seg from saving Kandor.
