** This is most clearly exemplified in the relationship between Silk Spectre II and Nite Owl II—they share their first kiss after beating up some thugs in an alleyway, but they aren't physically able to consummate their relationship until they both go out on a rescue mission in Nite Owl's [[Cool Airship|airship]], in full costume.
* One issue of ''[[The Spectre]]'' from the mid-80s shows a remarkably explicit (for a title not part of DC's "mature" ''Vertigo'' line) ... ''something'' ... going on between Spectre and Madame Xanadu. The action for the first several pages alternates between Spectre doing his normal grim work and Madame X, obviously nude and surrounded by the fog that indicates Spectre's presence in incorporeal form, writhing in apparent ecstasy. It's strongly implied that all of this is happening simultaneously.
* In ''[[Birds of Prey (comics)|Birds of Prey]]: Dead of Winter'', we have this line from a gory fight:
{{quote|'''Big Barda:''' Do you know what they call ''this'' on Apokolips, harridan? (snaps [[Secret Six|Knockout's]] wrist) ''Foreplay.''}}
* During the ''[[Secret Six]]'' series, Catman and his ex Cheshire are duking it out alongside their respective teams. In the middle of the fight, Cheshire suddenly demands that Catman make love to her... and Catman actually considers it.
