** Batman's most notable was [[War Games]] which is a [[Mob War]] started by [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|his own planning used by Stephanie Brown.]] [[Spider Man]] 's was most likely when the [[Kingpin]] was thought to be dead and all of [[New York]] was crawling over each other to replace him.

* ''[[The Punisher]]'s'' origin came when his family was killed in a botched mob hit during one of these.
