Line 36:
* The first strip in ''The Grievous Journey of Ichabod Azrael (and the Dead Left in His Wake)'' uses this is bit. The narrator says he heard that Ichabod's introduction to killing was when he killed 20 horsemen, but we see him killing one man in a duel. Later, the narrator relates a story about how Ichabod had a secret love who was able to calm his insane rage and dismisses it as nonsense, but the images show that that's exactly the case.
* In a [[Marvel]] UK ''[[Transformers Generation 1]]'' story, Octane tells Ratbat about how he bravely stood up to the vast Autobot onslaught only to be pushed back by overwhelming numbers. The images show him running like a coward from just two Autobots.
* ''[[Fifty Two52]]'' manages to sneak it in under the radar, only obvious [[Easter Egg|to those who pay close attention]]. When [[The Question]] surprises Renee Montoya on Day Three of Week Two, she panics, grabs her gun and begins firing. However, [[Stealth Hi Bye|he vanishes without a trace]]. The next morning Renee is trying to figure out what the hell happened, especially since "I ''know'' I hit him ''dead center''," but he left without trouble. However, if you look back at the previous panel, there are two "blam" effects to indicate gunshots and two holes in his jacket...''next'' to his body. She might "know" she hit him dead center, but we can see that she just plain missed him completely.
* Detective Richard [[Fell]] "[[Police Brutality|cleverly negotiates]] with the [[Crazy Homeless People|king of Yaakistan.]]"
* The 2010 [[Iron Man]] annual features [[Super Villain|The Mandarin]] describing his life story to the director he's forcing to adapt it. The captions are what the Mandarin [[Blatant Lies|claims]] happened while the images are what really transpired and they paint the Mandarin in a considerably [[Jerkass|less]] [[For the Evulz|flattering]] light.
