* In an [[Iron Man (Comic Book)|Invincible Iron Man]] issue, Pepper Potts admits to Maria Hill that she slept with Tony. A shocked Maria Hill admit that she also slept with Tony a few days before Potts. Follows a succession of panel with both looking shocked, each at each other, and then each looking down, visibly angry. After that, Hill mutters a simple "Tony Stark. Tony [[Precision F -Strike|fucking]] Stark.
* One of the traditions of a super team crossover is having a few B-List (Or even) major villains crash the headquarters seeking revenge, then a beat panel as they realize there are [[Oh Crap|quite a few more super heroes than they expected.]]
* [[Peter David]] enjoys regular use of these. The Madrox mini-series contained a number of examples.
