Line 27:
* One ''[[Deadpool]]'' story shows him and Siryn fighting Juggernaut. After trying to stop him with meat cleavers fails, Deadpool dumps a vat of molten steel onto him. He and Siryn then end up fleeing from a ''burning'' Juggernaut.
** It happens again in the ''[[X-Men]]'' issues of ''[[Fear Itself (Comic Book)|Fear Itself]]'', when Juggernaut is possessed by a godlike being and Cyclops rolls out several battle plans to stop him. All are ineffective, but then we get to this:

* The page picture comes from [[Grant Morrison]]'s run on [[Justice League]] and depicts Orion punching out a White Martian. [[Captain Obvious|While on fire]].
 
Line 77:
* Big Daddies of ''[[Bioshock]]'' have been known to continue trying to [[This Is a Drill|drill you]] while in flames (they will try to get to water when they can).<br /><br />''[[Bioshock]]'' in general in fact; use caution when setting enemies on fire anywhere near an oil slick, especially if the [[Exploding Barrels|leaky barrels]] that created it are still there.

* In ''[[The Punisher]]'', setting mooks aflame with the flamethrower isn't one hundred percent effective; they panic and run amok, sometimes into you. Ouch.
