Line 45:
* Sir Arthur Conan Doyle getting sick of [[Sherlock Holmes]] and throwing him off Reichenbach Falls probably counts, even though the death [[Disney Death|didn't stick]]. So this is [[Older Than Radio]].
* Another example might be Ian Fleming getting sick of [[James Bond]] and {{spoiler|killing him off at the end of the novel ''From Russia With Love''}}; however, the book was so well written and so much interest generated in the character that this [[Disney Death|death didn't stick]], either. {{spoiler|It was never planned that way anyway. He'd already written ''Dr. No''}}.
* Another [[Older Than Radio]] example is Garrett P. Serviss' 1898 unauthorized sequel to H. G. Wells' novel ''[[The War of the Worlds (novel)|The War of the Worlds]]'', ''Edison's Conquest of Mars.'' In this novel '''Thomas Edison''' ''reverse engineers the Martian technology,''combines it with a few inventions of his own to build a ''giant space fleet,'' and proceeds to ''fly to Mars with a huge army'' and beat the living crap out of the Martians with ludicrous ease. The entire book seems dedicated to inflicting as much pain on the Martians as possible, although the characters relent slightly near the end. Due to the lax copyright laws of the time period Serviss had no legal problems serializing or publishing the novel. H. G. Wells did not approve of the book. Thomas Edison did.
* ''[[Doctor Who]] [[Expanded Universe]]'' writer Lance Parkin once posted one of these to [[Outpost Gallifrey]] about a character everyone probably knew he hated anyway, seeing as he turned into a [[Designated Monkey]] whenever Parkin wrote him. Yeah, man, way to show that fictional character, spending your precious time writing two novels costarring him, nursing a grudge for two years, and writing a little story about him getting [[Losing Your Head|hurt in a nasty way]]. You sure showed him! Ha ha, not.
* ''[[The War Against the Chtorr]]'' novel "A Rage for Revenge" has a lengthy section detailing the [[Humiliation Conga]] inflicted on a producer who ripped off his writer. Author David Gerrold thinks that anyone who pisses off a writer is just asking for trouble. "How many stories have you read that are basically about revenge?"

* [[Netorare]] is [[Rule 34]] way of responding to spineless harem males so some claim.
** Not much of a stretch, considering the definition of ''[[Netorare]]'' is more or less "Sex with the faithful man rendered helpless to stop" in some way, via drugs, bondage or even taunting them victim though photos...
