* ''[[8-Bit Theater (Webcomic)|Eight Bit Theater]]'' loves this trope. For every battle that's shown on panel, there are at least two whose effects are only observed by the other characters or implied via speech bubbles, sound effects, or [[Gory Discretion Shot|rivers of blood]] from offpanel. The crowning moment, however, is in the [[Final Battle]] with Chaos where this is used twice -- first when it actually happens and again, in a [[Double Subversion]], in [[Flash Back]]. The latter also counts as an intentional [[Offscreen Moment of Awesome]].
* In ''[[The Adventures of Dr. McNinja]]'', Doc [[It Makes Sense in Context|is retrieving a missile from a robot alligator submarine]] when a park warden catches him. The next page of the comic simply contains the words: HE IS A NINJA and then cuts to Doc driving the warden's car to his destination.
* In ''[[El Goonish Shive]]'', [[Technical Pacifist|Grace plays a fighting game]] during her birthday party while Ellen watches. [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2005-06-02 At one point], Ellen is actually shocked by what she sees even though its stated to be only cartoon violence.
