Examples of Last-Name Basis in Web Comic.
- Parley from Gunnerkrigg Court is called by her last name, because everyone's too nice to call her George.
- Johnathan Gabriel from Penny Arcade usually goes by "Gabe."
- Most of the pilots in Angels2200 are referred to by their callsign or last name.
- Nicknames instead of first or last names are pretty common among enlisted troops of all services, especially to enforce a One Steve Limit if there's more than one soldier of the same last name and rank.
- Nolan from Regular Guy.
- The title character of Its Walky goes by Walkerton. He doesn't actually LIKE his nickname Walky (At best he tolerates it, there are only a few characters he actually doesn't mind calling him that). Almost no one calls him "David".
- All of the government-employed characters in Doomsday, My Dear refer to each other by last name: Zahra, Bowden, Young, et cetera. A few characters refer to Khepry and Chet by their first names, but no one uses Cyril's.
