Line 22:
* [[Captain America]] is the freaking [[Trope Codifier|KING]] of this trope. ''Every'' incarnation of Captain America uses this trope to some degree or another, but [[Ultimate Marvel|Ultimate Cap]] is probably the most apparent.
* In one arc in the ''[[Green Lantern]]'' comic, Hal Jordan is brought to the present era and learns that not only has Coast City been destroyed, not only is the Corps dead, but the latter was his own doing as part of a massive [[Face Heel Turn]].
* In his title series, [[Nova (Comic Book)|Nova]] meets his ex-lover Namorita, who is dead in the present, while the two of them are ripped through time. Namorita is blissfully unaware of anything that happens in the future, including the fact that she and Nova were no long a couple long before her death, and that she is one of the parties blamed for the deaths of hundreds of innocents.
* [[X-Men|Magik]] discovered that she would die from the Legacy Virus when she and her team time-traveled to the present. Sadly, if she hadn't time-traveled in the first place, she wouldn't have died, as it was in the present that she was infected with the Virus {{spoiler|by her brother Rasputin}}.
* In the [[Intercontinuity Crossover]] ''[[JLA-Avengers]]'' when they discover their [[Silver Age|Silver Agey]] joined universe isn't "real" they get a glimpse of the real two universes, and Hal Jordan & Barry Allen are especially disappointed about being dead, and in Jordan's case learning that he destroyed the Corps and Coast City. Both still want to fix things to the way they should be though, becuase that's the right thing to do.
