* ''[[Nana's Everyday Life]]'', has the art style of a manga for little children; plays the mental, emotional, physical and sexual abuse of an undersged girl [[Played for Laughs|for laughs]]. [[Gallows Humor|Very]] [[Black Comedy|dark]] [[Black Comedy Rape|laughs]]. Until it [[Tear Jerker|stops being funny]].
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20130703110849/http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp05282008.shtml This] ''[[Something*Positive]]'' strip.
** If you think that's bad, try [https://web.archive.org/web/20130510032652/http://somethingpositive.net/sp11172008.shtml this one]..
** And of course the Little Blue Thing, aka Fluffmodeus. He's like an '80s cartoon character who Care-Bear-Stared a little too long into the abyss...

Line 111:
* ''[[Charby the Vampirate]]'' is described as an ultra-violent Saturday morning cartoon, with adorable characters who will occasionally eviscerate or suffocate their many victims, brutally, with no [[Gory Discretion Shot]]. The combo is especially obvious with Mye, the zombie girl who smells sweet despite 315 years of decay, not to mention the unhealed slit in her chest where she got a sweet heart transplant. Her [[Evil Eye]] are bubblegum pink.
** Mye isn't decaying,(she is a traditional zombie, not a Hollywood/Romero zombie)the sweet smell is candle wax and gummy bears, two things she spends a lot of time with. And her brother's eyes are pink, too!
* ''[[The Perry Bible Fellowship]]''. [http://www.pbfcomics.com/?cid=PBF048-Suicide_Train.gif Where] [http://www.pbfcomics.com/?cid=PBF024-Puppy_Wish.gif to] [http://www.pbfcomics.com/?cid=PBF057-Raft_Friends.jpg even] [http://www.pbfcomics.com/?cid=PBF041-Sun_Love.gif begin]?
* ''[[Erfworld]]'' pretty much runs off this, with the incredibly cute and adorable-looking, child-like midgets engaged in brutal, unending wars for [[Forever War|no real, discernible reason]].
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20080424111847/http://www.partiallyclips.com/erfworld/blowups/BLOWUP_nomnomnom_640.jpg Go ahead], [https://web.archive.org/web/20130830155746/http://www.giantitp.com/comics/erf0106.html tell me] [https://web.archive.org/web/20131127091442/http://www.giantitp.com/comics/erf0150.html I'm wrong].
* ''[[Double Happiness]]''
* Arcturus Winrock from ''[[Suicide for Hire]]'' is downright ADORABLE with those big [[Puppy Dog Eyes]] of his but he DOES have a dark side to him.....
* ''[[Drowtales]]'' presents [https://web.archive.org/web/20110918134551/http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?order=chapters&id=676&overview=1&chibi=1&cover=1&page=1&check=1 the amaceing Mili'ani]!
* ''[[The Unspeakable Vault of Doom]]'' is a [[Lighter and Softer]] look at the [[Cthulhu Mythos]]—for instance, its cartoonishly-drawn "Cthulhoo" says "yum yum" every time he eats an unfortunate cultist. But it's still the Cthulhu Mythos, and the gore factor actually goes ''up'' compared to Lovecraft's work. It'd be [[Mood Whiplash]] if the death and dismemberment weren't so heavily integrated into the comic alongside the silliness.
* Nepeta Leijon from ''[[Homestuck]]'' qualifies for this. She's a [[Moe]] [[Catgirl]] who kills wild animals for food with her [[Wolverine Claws]].
Line 151:
* The baby goldfinches that {{spoiler|eat Hopper}} in ''[[A Bug's Life|A Bugs Life]]''. It's not gory, but pretty gross.
* ''[[Drawn Together]]'', with the characters Strawberry Sweetcake and Ling Ling.
* ''[[The Grim Adventures of Billy
{{quote|[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v{{=}}wmZAzVS8Nw4 "Pud'n, have you ever heard of ''tough'' love?"]}}
* ''The Itchy and Scratchy Show'' in ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]''.
