Line 533:
* Actually named in ''[[Gone With the Blastwave]]''.
* In ''[[Sinfest]]'', [http://www.sinfest.net/archive_page.php?comicID=3544 Lil' Evil complains to God that an event is one.]
* The ''[[Dreamwalk Journal]]'' [[Spin Off]] ''Nightshade the Merry Widow'' has two big deus ex machinas:
**In the "Beewolf" arc, the heroes suffer a major [[Oh Crap]] moment when they accidentally destroy the Beewolves' hideout and think they've killed everyone. (The comic depicts a society in which nobody ''ever'' kills anybody. Go figure.) They are relieved to discover that the local deity has stepped in and rescues everyone at the last moment - literally a ''deus'' ex machina.
**In the "Bahoogie and Beans" arc, our heroes are baffled as to how the Redlip ant queen could have survived a plunge into the deep realms, where the atmospheric pressure and composition should be lethal to anyone from the upper realms. It turns out they've been saved by {{spoiler|the [[Living Ship]] that originally seeded their planet with their human-arthropod hybrid ancestors}}. In this case, a deus ex ''machina''.
