Pietà Plagiarism/Web Comics
Examples of Pietà Plagiarism in Web Comics include:
- Kevin and Kell, normally a very gag-based comic, had one here, following the death of Danielle.
- Parson pulls one of these in Erfworld.
- There's at least one in the Walkyverse.
- At least one? If a major character dies and leaves a body, there's a greater chance that this will happen as the series goes on. In Shortpacked, it was used for unconscious characters, considering how Death wasn't so cheap there.
- Breakfast of the Gods gives us (spoiler warning) this. And yes, that is Tony the Tiger cradling the lifeless body of Cap'n Crunch.
- Later on the inversion, Cradling Your Kill is used: the Pietà pose is of an enemy holding his victim.
- Occurs near the end of the first volume of fantasy comic Garanos.
- Pastiched by Dasien and Mindmistress on this cover in The Crossoverlord.
- In one of two pages being added to the second printing of Girl Genius Volume 6 to fix a layout issue, Agatha tends to a freshly dead Lars.
- Done with the accidentally slaughtered Raccoon #1 in The Intrepid Girlbot.
- Rumble Bee of Super Stupor strikes this pose with her mentor when he ceases to exist during the Cataclysm in this strip.
- Seen in Juathuur here, with inverted genders.
- Dominic Deegan shows this trope during a flashback to the slaughter of a group of students by a sadistic Infernomancer.
- El Goonish Shive. Grace is shown doing it in this comic, right after knocking the guy out with a sleeper hold.
- Weapon Brown: ME GOYLE!!
- In Blue Yonder, Iron Agent carried Jared like this after the injuries he suffered.
- Karate Bears need a mop.
- Homestuck manages to pull it off both seriously and mockingly at the same time thanks to Sburb's kiss-revival system.
