Line 29:
* In ''[[The Sandman]]'', Dream apologetically and solemnly tell Rose this multiple times as he prepares to kill her to save the Dreaming, as she is an [[Apocalypse Maiden]]. Rose eventually shouts at him to stop apologizing, and to get it over with already.
* ''[[Teen Titans (Comic Book)|Teen Titans]]'' showed this in a few cases.
** In Slade's backstory, he apologized to his wife for getting Joey, their toddler son, permanently injured by assassins that helpheld Joey hostage. Her response was to put a bullet through his eye. (She was aiming for the head, but he heard the pistol cock.)
**  Robin couldn't stop apologizing to Starfire after learning that {{spoiler|Mirage kidnapped and impersonated her, and Kory lampshades how he failed to realize ''something'' was wrong when Mirage didn't have flight or starbolts. Even [[Heel Face Revolving Door]] Slade could tell something was off while stalking them, since he knows it's not like Starfire to hold back and let Robin do all the fighting. Nightwing attempts to salvage the situation by popping the question, but Raven's [[Super-Powered Evil Side]] crashed the nuptials while possessing Starfire}}.
** When Dark Angel erased Donna from existence, Wally West managed to bring her back with his memories of her. Just one problem: he brought back the idealized version of Donna, not the actual person. Donna suffered an existential crisis as a result, questioning if she was real or just the girl on whom Wally crushed. He tries to apologize and bring her back to the person she was, but she rebuffed him. Even when Donna regained her true self, they remained friends.
