FAMOUS COSTUMED CRIMEFIGHTERS SCHOOLBoca Raton, FL
Lesson #17: CatchphrasesHonestly, catchphrases are regarded as passe. Even long-time crusaders like K. El/C. Kent (Class of â33, Dean Emeritus) and Namor (Class of â39, semi-retired) known for classic phrases such as âUp, Up and Away!â have dropped the practice because public tastes change, and it now gives the impression of being pretentious. NOTE: There are, of course, exceptions; B. Batson (Class of â39) still utters the word âShazam!â but this is required to engage the transformation process.Even with that, âDeath to Spies!â is not a good choice for a tagline because of limitations it sets on the aspiring crusaderâs mission. A good catchphrase needs to be broad and generalized, keeping with the ever-changing dimensions of the job. Of course, a serious flaw now is observed with the Phansom Commando. Playing both sides of the law sometimes is necessary in order to carry out the crusaderâs mission, but it is better to play both sides and let the authorities THINK you are a criminal (See B. Reid, Class of â36) than to engage in breaking and entering and remove all doubtâŠ
