Line 32:
* In [[Jack Kirby]]'s ''Fourth World'', aka the entire mythos surrounding [[Darkseid]] and the [[New Gods]], anyone who attempts to penetrate the great wall that separates the universe from the Source {{spoiler|aka God}} is imprisoned on that wall as a hundred foot tall 'Promethean Giant'.
* The final fate of {{spoiler|Carrick Masterson}} in ''[[No Hero]]''. {{spoiler|He was dropped into space, [[Space Is Cold|where he freezes]] and was left there. Because he is immortal, he will float forever, and possibly feel never ending cold and suffer from starvation and suffocation}}.
* Magus from the [[Infinity Gauntlet]] and [[Adam Warlock]] / [[Thanos]] fame / infamy ended as this. Due to reality altering energies being unleashed as he held the incomplete [[Infinity Gauntlet]], he ended up as an [[Added Alliterative Appeal|intangible, invisible, inaudible]] apparation. He can see others but not interact with them. Scream, but never be heard. ...Until [[Captain Marvel|Genis]]-Vell with his [[Spider Sense|cosmic senses]] comes along, and a [[Timey -Wimey Ball]] gets involved.
* ''DC Universe''. One of the many and varied punishments of that comic book's Hell is being turned into building materials. Every chance you just might be the fifth brick from the left staring down the line of demon urinals for the next billion and a half years.
* ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (Comic Book)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]''. In addition to robotization, this is the fate of [[Well -Intentioned Extremist|Dimitri]], when Lien-Da [[Klingon Promotion|usurps his position as Grand Master]]. She disables his ability to move, leaving only his robotic head, then sticks him in a box, gleefully telling him his battery will run down in a few months. He does eventually get rescued.
* This happened to [[The Juggernaut]] at the end of ''Amazing Spiderman # 230'', when [[Spider Man]] buried him in tons of concrete.
* In ''[[Superman]]'' comics of the [[Silver Age]], the original version of the Phantom Zone fell into this trope. Phantom Zone prisoners couldn't even touch each other; they were condemned just to watch the material world until their sentences expired.
