* [http://www.vanvonhunter.com/vvh232.html A hilarious literal example], from the [[Web Comic]] ''Van Von Hunter''.
* As soon as the villain, {{spoiler|Frans Rayner}}, of the D.A.R.E To Resist Ninja Drugs and Ninja Violence story arc is introduced, he [https://web.archive.org/web/20090201135026/http://drmcninja.com/page.php?pageNum=18&issue=4 gets into this trope.] It could be seen as his [[Moral Event Horizon]]... but they are just mooks [[You Have Failed Me...|who failed him]] because of Dan McNinja's [[Incendiary Exponent]].
* This is [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2006/11/18/episode-771-no-good-deed/ parodied] in an ''[[8-Bit Theater|8-bit Theater]]'' strip.
* At the end of a ''[[Penny and Aggie]]'' storyline, Charisma rants to her illegitimate son's face that he exists to ruin her life, after a series of events he had no control over, in front of her boyfriend. Needless to say, he leaves her soon after.
* In ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'' Aylee{{spoiler|'s evil clone}} gets one of these after she goes through her corporate executive transformation. She attacks the gang's Halloween party and leaves all the guests unconscious outside and taunts Riff with the knowledge that she can kill him and everyone he knows ''so easily''.
** K'Z'K gets one when he [[Demonic Possession|takes over Gwynn's body]] (the second time). Trying to kill Riff, Torg, and Zoe? Well, they ''did'' foil his evil plans; there's some legitimate revenge motivation going on there. [
* New [[Knight Templar]] Xaphrael kicks the dog within his first half dozen strips in ''[[Misfile]]'' when he nearly chokes resident [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain]] Cassiel in [http://www.misfile.com/index.php?page=1062 this strip] (for doing her best to get Rumsiel in trouble).
* In ''[[Awkward Zombie]]'', the [[Author Avatar]] [http://www.awkwardzombie.com/comic1-090108.php does this literally].
Line 33:
* And, of course, [[Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal]] gives us a [http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=249#comic literal example].
* [[The Dreamland Chronicles]]: They told to keep out of trouble, so [http://www.thedreamlandchronicles.com/the-dreamland-chronicles/chapter-04/page-256/ the guard abuses] [[Children Are Innocent|children]] before them.
* More or less literally happens in [[The Q Man]] when Talbot remotely performs a command override [https://web.archive.org/web/20110810204142/http://whoistheqman.com/archives/2011/01/10/358 during the Q Man's first mission].
* [[Heroic Sociopath|Richard the Warlock]] of [[Looking for Group]] does this on a regular basis, usually for comic effect.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcbazH6aE2g Quite literally.]
Line 43:
** Although, the one time she fought an actual dog ({{spoiler|the [[Big Bad]] Jack Noir}}) she was being heroic.
* In ''[[Captain SNES]]'', Mother Brain (a [[Harmless Villain]] in the show the comic is based on) takes it half-literally by smacking Captain N's dog Duke into a pit filled with [[Phlebotinum|Omega Energy]] just to spite the Captain. This upsets not only her enemies, but also her henchman, King Hippo.
* In ''[[Endstone]]'', [https://web.archive.org/web/20120702031359/http://endstone.net/2010/08/12/4-14/ introducing some character laughing about killing.] Just before they go [[Mugging the Monster]].
* In ''[[Our Little Adventure]]'', Peganone, Eva and Randi were attacked by [[Big Bad|Angelo.]] Not only they [[Curb Stomp Battle|lost the fight]], but Angelo ended up magically forcing the Paladin Eva to slay her own horse. The dramatic effect of this was lessened by her horse easily being able to outrun her, and Angelo getting bored and calling it off. It was still very cruel and unnecessary.
