Line 64:
** The same goes for former Marvel supervillain prison, The Vault which was not only a [[Cardboard Prison]] but was staffed by an army of men wearing armor based on [[Iron Man]] suits called The Guardsmen. Every time there was a breakout, several of them would be killed. In fact, [[Venom (Comic Book)|Venom]] once killed a group of Guardsmen during one of his many escapes and the guards' friends and family became an armored [[Super Team]] intent on killing him.
* For nine issues, [[Amazing Stories (magazine)|''Amazing Stories'']] ran a comic strip written and drawn by [[John Kovalic]] about the perils of being a red shirt. The strip was called ''Redshirts'', and it has been collected in its entirety [http://www.dorktower.com/2016/09/26/redshirts/ here].
* In a ''[[Nodwick]]'' comic that parodies ''[[Queen of the Demonweb Pits]]'' with ample references to ''[[Star Trek]]'', this Trope is lampooned. The heroes barge onto the control center of Lolth's Spidership, and the Spider Queen's succubus minions prepare to fight them, but Artax convinces them to surrender, telling them they can't win, as they made the "tactical error of wearing red." (One of them laments that "If only I'd gone into medicine, I'd be wearing blue!") Even funnier, Nodwick - [[Chew Toy|who tends to die a lot]][[Death Is a Slap on The Wrist|due to his employers' shenanigans]] - realizes right now that ''he'' has always worn red shirt himself.
