* Marion Keeny in ''[[Scarecrow: Year One]]'' calls her daughter a whore for having a child out of wedlock and suggests burying the (living) baby in the backyard, but the fact that her and her daughter's surnames are the same as that of Marion's mother implies that she may not have been married either, or that they just kept their maiden names.
** Or they just kept their maiden names.
* In ''Salvation Run'', Gorilla Grodd mocks Monsieur Mallah's claims that they are similar and derides him as the uplifted pet of a [[Mad Scientist]]. Grodd conveniently fails to mention that he was uplifted by an alien [[Mad Scientist]].
* In the limited series ''[[G.I. Joe]] [[Street Fighter| x Street Fighter]]'', during (a [[Tournament Arc]] arranged by M. Bison and Destro), the first fight is between Snake Eyes and C. Viper, (the latter working for the Baroness). Viper becomes frustrated when Snake Eyes clearly gets the better of her, and starts using the high-tech weapons in her suit, only for Snake Eyes to draw a pair of conventional daggers and floor her with them. The Baroness gets angry and - in her way - calls for a ruling:, which Bison and Destro are only too happy to turn a blind eye to.
** Naturally, Bison and Destro are even worse hypocrites, and it is ''not'' because of any adherence to "fair play" that Bison makes this ruling; Hethey doesdo so only so that nobody can object to himBison using his Psycho Drive battlesuit (- the schematics of which when Destro has improved upon) - when it's ''his'' turn.▼
{{quote|'''Baroness:''': Knives? ''Knives?!'' This is ridiculous! What kind of tournament are you running?
'''M. Bison:''': One where we ''also'' turn a blind eye to S.I.N. designed battlesuits.
'''Destro:''' [[The Gadfly| And one where ''you'', my dear, are up next]].}}
▲** Naturally, Bison and Destro are even worse hypocrites, and it is ''not'' because of any adherence to "fair play" that Bison makes this ruling; He does so only so nobody can object to him using his Psycho Drive battlesuit (the schematics of which when Destro has improved upon) when it's ''his'' turn.
