Line 31:
* In ''[[Hellblazer]]'', John Constantine makes brilliant use of this by sharing a drink with the Devil - and then disrupting a spell that keeps the liquid from reverting to holy water. He then glasses the Devil in the face with a broken bottle and kicks him into a ''well'' full of the stuff.
* In ''[[I Am Legend]]'', the "vampires" are only hurt by holy symbols if it was symbolic of the religion they followed in their previous life. For example, a former friend of Robert's is undeterred by a cross, yet recoils when presented with a Torah.
* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons Comic]]'': Mr Burns takes over the Springfield church, at first simply to promote his autobiography and later {{spoiler|to become Pope (yes, Lovejoy explains why he should have thought that through).}} He compares the Church to a book club where they talk about the same book every week. "Now, the Bible is a ''fine'' book, but - AGH! It burns!" In the next panel, he's holding it with oven mitts.
