* [[Avalon (webcomic)|Avalon]] averted this for the most part, with the majority of it taking placing in real time and with timeskips after long storylines. It was played straight near the end of its run when the ugliness that is [[Schedule Slip]] reared its head and caused week to month long delays.
* This is parodied in ''[[Supermegatopia]]'', in which [https://web.archive.org/web/20100529063734/http://www.supermegatopia.com/profiles/profiles.php?thisLink=mongooseguy.txt Mongoose Lad] really ''was'' Ferret Man's boy sidekick for decades, due to a mutation that caused him to age far slower than normal.
* ''[[Achewood]]'' characters age normally... except for Phillipe. Phillipe is five. He will ''always'' be five.
* From ''[[PvP]]'':

'''Cole:''' You'll appreciate it when you're in your thirties.
'''Francis:''' ''[http://www.pvponline.com/2006/12/27/dec-27-2006/ I'm never going to be in my thirties!]'' }}
** Two years after that strip, Francis and Marcie [[Sex as Rite-Of-Passage|lose their virginities to one another]] and [https://web.archive.org/web/20111223172750/http://www.pvponline.com/2008/05/28/ding/ immediately age three years].
** This is done inconsistently, though, as [https://web.archive.org/web/20120210022313/http://www.pvponline.com/2008/05/09/case-file-mcmlxxi-xxi/ this strip] implies that less than four years have passed since the comic's launch, modern pop-culture references notwithstanding.
** On the other hand, Cole's daughter (Born 1999/2000) dropped out of the strip for a decade and is now in college.
* Averted in ''[[Kevin and Kell]]'' (and also in Bill Holbrook's other strips). Coney was born and is growing up, Lindesfarne graduated and went to university, and even Rudy has grown up and matured. A little.
