Line 56:
* Inverted in an issue of ''[[Catwoman (comics)|Catwoman]]''. During an adventure in Miami, she notes that the trick doesn't work so well in other cities when she runs out of rooftops.
* ''[[The Tick (comic)|The Tick]]'' oh ho ho ho, ''The Tick''. Due to being [[Nigh Invulnerable]], [[Super Strength|Super Strong]] and being built like a linebacker on steroids, he tends to leave footprints on the roofs during jumps. When he visits Europe for a superhero exchange program, he's forced to go pedestrian because his roof-hopping antics damaged historical buildings.
* In ''[[Nineteen Sixty Three1963]]'', the Fury is a [[Badass Normal]] lacking any superpowers but possessing incredible agility. His standard form of transportation? Rapidly running and jumping across the roofs of buildings, leading to the nickname "Roofrunner".
* In ''[[Astro City]]'', this is occasionally shown as transportation for the more acrobatic street-level heroes. At one point, Jack-in-the-Box is followed across the roofs by a hooting gang called The Rowdy Boys who chase him across roofs to build up their [[Le Parkour]] skills.
* ''[[Sin City]]'' does this with Marv in the first comic (also in the movie version). Miho is often shown doing this from time to time. In one story, she did it while wearing [[Rollerblade Good|rollerblades.]]
