** Inverted [http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/1950.html here], with the 3rd panel the only one with dialog.
** Dare I suggest that [http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/2168.html here], he's going for an entire beat -strip-?
* [[Matt Groening]]'s ''[[Life in Hell]]'' uses these quite a lot, especially in the strips featuring Akbar and Jeff. [https://web.archive.org/web/20151018182353/http://yourfaceisanadvert.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/jeff-and-akbar11.jpg Here] is a typical example.
* [http://www.mezzacotta.net/owls/?comic=188 Beet Panel.]
* [http://www.megatokyo.com/index.php?strip_id=535 Here] is a [[Heroic BSOD]] version from ''[[Megatokyo]]''.

** The comic seems fond of the traditional use of this trope as well. It occurs most often when [http://wapsisquare.com/comic/whereitcamefrom/ Monica suddenly realizes something], but [http://wapsisquare.com/comic/all-my-life/ other] [http://wapsisquare.com/comic/whowhatwhere/ characters] [http://wapsisquare.com/comic/sainthood/ aren't] [http://wapsisquare.com/comic/ohigetit/ immune].
* ''[[Miscellaneous Error]]'' uses a beat panel in an early comic.
* ''[[Fans]]'' recently used beat panels(and other silent panels) in an innovative way in the arc "[https://web.archive.org/web/20131003110237/http://www.faans.com/crossover/ Crossover]", which involves an attack on a crossword-fans convention. Each of the 18 pages has six square frames, with periodic beat panels, and each beat panel is framed in a thick black outline. As the final page displays, when all the panels are arranged in order, they form a crossword panel, with each beat panel as a black space, and the first letter in each of the other panels is used in the crossword solution.
* ''[[Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff]]'' does this all the time [[Stylistic Suck|in a highly exaggerated manner]].
* This webcomic [https://web.archive.org/web/20121203021635/http://mind-numbinglyboringwebcomic.smackjeeves.com/comics/1403290/prologue/] consists entirely of beat panels in the first comic. But what do you expect from a comic called "The Mind-numbingly Boring Webcomic"? It appears to get better and actually funny in the next actual comic, but who knows how it will proceed.
