* Lampshaded in ''[[Casey and Andy]]'', the antagonistic Lord Milligan is a [[Card-Carrying Villain]] who [[Contractual Genre Blindness|follows basically every trope in the book]], right down to having a lair inside a hollowed-out volcano, and insisting on explaining the villainous plot to the heroes before killing them. When one of the eponymous characters asks him if there's any ''advantage'' in following all those rules, Milligan demonstrates that there is by employing the "[http://www.galactanet.com/comic/view.php?strip=381 Female Incapacitation Attack]" on Mary, an [[Action Girl]] with implanted, Wolverine-style claws.

* Subverted in ''Darken''. Sure, Elia is mildly inconvenienced when Shard grabs her, but [http://darkencomic.com/?webcomic_post=june-24th-2010 it doesn't last long.]

* ''[http://girlyyy.com/go/671 Girly]'', most likely will be [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] later (it's not the first time ''[[Girly]]'' lampshaded something ''while'' playing it straight).

* [[Gender Flip|Gender-flipped]] in the [[Ciem Webcomic Series]]. Candi only defeats Musaran because she musters her strength after a punishing blow to punch him in the face.

* ''[[Girl Genius]]'' had this (briefly) when [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20100319 "Snapper" Boikov tried taking Sanaa hostage]. ''After'' discovering she's a sister of the hero who did personally break half of the prisoners' or their bosses' operations and probably already knowing she was imprisoned for [[Pirate Girl|piracy]].
