** Fortunately, once the Sapphires organized into a Corps, their matrons, the alien Zamarons, externalized their power, swapping out the parasitic crystal for a ring and power battery like the Green Lanterns, allowing the Star Sapphires to maintain more of their normal personality. The Violet Light of Love still alters their behavior more than all of the other lights except Red do, however.
* Veronica Pace in ''[[Strangers in Paradise]]''. After the [[Big Bad]]'s "suicide", her former chauffeur Veronica takes over the remains of her organisation, gives herself an [[Evil Makeover]] and begins to show signs of [[Ax Crazy|Ax Craziness]]. Before her defeat, she [[Just Between You and Me|reveals]] that she did it all because she was obsessed with Katchoo.
* During Chuck Austen's run on ''[[X-Men (Comic Book)|Uncanny X-Men]]'', the already unstable Lorna aka Polaris got [[Derailing Love Interests|turned into this]] over her boyfriend Alex aka Havok, going so far as to threaten the other girl ([[Relationship Sue|Nurse Annie]]) with magnetically controlled scalpels ''the day'' she arrived in the mansion. Then, when it turned out Annie and Havok [[Aliens Made Them Do It|had been having a psychic affair]] during Alex's time in a coma, and poor Polaris got dumped at the altar by him, she went the [[If I Can't Have You]] route and tried to kill them both ''in the wedding party''; Lorna then got locked up and put into therapy, while Annie and Alex ran away from the country. Austen later attempted to [[AuthorsAuthor's Saving Throw|justify]] [[Ass Pull|this]] by claiming that Polaris [[Go Mad From the Revelation|had already been driven insane]] by [[Mind Rape|being forced to watch the genocide caused by Cassandra Nova's Sentinels]], but pretty much nobody bought it, and once he was off the title, later writers made ''big'' efforts towards putting Lorna back together, [[Put On a Bus|driving Annie and her telepathic son David as far away as possible]] and ignoring the whole relationship fuckery as much as they could.
* Power Boy became a [[Yandere]] for [[Supergirl]] [[Love At First Sight|the moment he laid eyes on her on Apokolips]]. He was so obsessed with her that he couldn't even eat or sleep after she left. He traveled to Earth and played the role of a superhero hoping he could get her to fall for him. His act was so good that Supergirl actually dated him for a few issues. Then his [[Clingy Jealous Girl|jealousy]] over Supergirl's friendship with Captain Boomerang Jr. reached a peak and drove him to [[Domestic Abuser|assault and imprison her]]. Supergirl, understandably upset, promptly broke free of her restraints and ended their relationship -- with a [[Groin Attack]]. In his latest appearance he's shown regularly having sex with women who look like Supergirl - and at his insistence, wear the costume the whole time.
** This was all intended as a parody/deconstruction of the way your average [[Distaff Counterpart]] is often introduced or portrayed, as it happens.
