* In [[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]], [[Cable]] came back in time to prevent the future he grew up in. Stryfe, his [[Evil Twin|evil clone]], then came back in time to stop him -- not so much because he was hugely enamoured of their home era, but rather because he lived to screw with Cable's life.

* [[Iron Man]] and [[Doctor Doom]] for some reason do this often. They wound up in Camelot once, and another time they inverted the trope by traveling to the future (after Merlin has awaken and King Arthur has reincarnated).
