Transcript:
Caesar: Hey, if someone were to make a superhero based on you, what do you think his name would be? Huey: Please... Nobody would make a superhero based on me. It wouldn't be commercial enough. Besides, all the black superheros are corny. They'd probably give me a metal headband and yellow disco shirt or something stupid.

Huey: Besides, the C.I.A. will probably be coming for me any day now, so who cares about comic books.
