Best sound effect ever? I'd say this probably makes the top ten at least.
From Vision and the Scarlet Witch v2 #8:
there is absolutely no reason why this story is called "Sweet Sister." But that is by no means the most messed up thing about it. Short plot summary? Luke Cage is attacked by tiny demon man on the eve of that "new holiday," Martin Luther King's Birthday! Cage wanted to take a day off to celebrate, but tiny demon dude has gotten in the way of his plan, in a big way.
He explains what's going on to Vizh & Witch, with whom he and Iron Fist fought the tiny demon dude the first time. Quicksilver is visiting with his ho-- i mean, wife, and makes some random offensive comments about MLK jr. Day:
Now I have a few theories as to why this did not result in Quicky being batted halfway across the room:
A) It's not worth the effort, because no one listens to Pietro whine anyway.
B) It's best not to piss off Pietro's super-powerful, hormonal, pregnant sister, whose plate glass window he just crashed through, by starting a superpowered fight in her living room.
C) Cage realizes that it is only through actions, and not angry words, that the closed minds of the world will see the error of their ways. Also, Cage is a professional.
D) The writer did not realize Quicksilver was being such a racist ass. (He only thought Pietro was a little ass.)
or
E) All of the above.
Enough textual interpretations! Back to the fight!
Never you worry, Cage gets his... against the tiny demon dude at least. You see, only Cage's mad street smarts can get them through New York City after the demon put an illusion of an enchanted forest over it. Cage punch puny trees!
Luke also gets to deliver the moralistic ending monologue, and gets the last word on Pietro:
Note: I'm pretty sure Luke Cage wins FNF just by virtue of being Luke Cage.
I obey the word of Bahlactus.

There is NO REASON why Luke didn't punch Pietro superhard up there.
I love that Pietro can't even pull out that old chestnut "I have black friends", no, some of the Inhumans are "dusky".
Like who, Pete?
"er... Black... Bolt?"
No.
