--->'''Scaredevil:''' [[ComicBook/GorillaGrodd Magilla Grodd!]] You've killed him!\\

* A large portion of ''Franchise/{{Tintin}}'' humor comes from Captain Haddock tripping or hitting his head.This is [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] in ''Destination Moon''.

* ''ComicBook/TheSuperiorFoesOfSpiderMan'' reconstructs this trope by merging it with RealityEnsues; the characters frequently have to deal with the long-term consequences of their injuries, but this is just used to make them even funnier such as Shocker mumbling incoherently for half of issue 1 because his jaw got broken or Speed Demon trying to work around his broken ankle by [[WorstAid strapping it to a roller skate so he can keep moving]].

* ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1942'': Gen. Darnell once ended up with broken bones in both hands due to furniture falling on him. While the initial injury was not treated as funny the inconvenience of having both hands in casts certainly was.

* Franchise/ArchieComics often got laughs from Big Moose beating the stuffings out of anyone he so much as imagines is making time with his girl Midge -- mostly to Reggie.

* A deconstruction, or maybe an Indecisive DeconstructiveParody, in ''Batman and Robin (2011)'' #10, where a villain named Terminus, who's dying of some poorly-described side effect of a fight with Batman, recruits mooks who were also weirdly injured by Batman to maim Gotham citizens: these include a guy with a Batarang embedded in his skull after [[BoomerangComeback attempting to throw it at Batman]], a guy who has permanent ligature marks across his body from being LockedUpAndLeftBehind, a woman who got stuck with several of Bats' gauntlet spikes (she's made a fashion statement of it, though), a guy with the footprint of a Bat-boot on his face after a kick to a head... and three guys who crashed their getaway vehicle into toxic waste, becoming [[BodyHorror fused]] into a barely-HumanoidAbomination. The MoodWhiplash of that last one is jarring.

* The [[ComicBook/DisneyMouseAndDuckComics Disney Comics]] are rife with this. Characters can be blown up, dropped from buildings, electrocuted, attacked by dogs, whatever, but actually sustain long-term injuries let alone ''killed''? Not unless the plot specifically requires it, like the Phantom Blot's numerous {{Death Trap}}s, which are played menacingly straight as being very lethal (of course, Mickey always escapes somehow). Even if someone (usually Donald) ends up as a BandageMummy at the end, he's perfectly fine by the next story.

* ''ComicBook/TheMask'' also deconstructed this as part of its central premise. The titular mask turns its wearer into a living cartoon character capable of doling out classic cartoon stuff like TorsoWithAView, SquishedFlat and what have you, the only catch is that the unfortunate recipients are still regular humans, who are gorily and messily killed as a result.

* Often in the stories by Creator/WilhelmBusch, up to Amusing Death. Note that these stories are more than 100 years old, and even decades older than ''TheYellowKid'', often said to be the first comic.

* Happens regularly to [[TheAwesomeSlapstick Slapstick]], whose indestructible cartoon-like body allows him to recover almost instantly.

** He also does this to poor Mr Immortal of the ''GreatLakesAvengers''. So does almost everyone who they face off against, and this is on top of his own death wish, which is played for amusement.

* ComicStrip/{{Wolverine}} occasionally comes in for this, thanks to his Mutant Healing Factor (TM). One of the more notable examples was a pitch-black parody about chainsaw-wielding midget mafiosi that culminated in the {{Punisher}} parking a steamroller on top of Wolverine.

* ComicStrip/{{Deadpool}} took more punishment in funny, amusing or plain crazy ways and he is still wise-cracking.

* Basile always gets hurt in ''ComicStrip/LeonardLeGenie'', either because of his clumsiness or his master's sadism.

* ''ComicStrip/SinCity'' has the death of Jack Rafferty, which is probably one of the most gruesome deaths in the series (which is saying something) but also the funniest. His dialogue helps.

* This happens all the time in ''Manga/{{Beelzebub}}''. We've got Oga being beaten by Hilda and electrocuted by Beelz, the random mooks Oga pummels, the perverted Tengu Aoi has to deal with, and ''everything'' that happens to Furuichi.

* Basile always gets hurt in ''LeonardLeGenie'', either because of his clumsiness or his master's sadism.
* Every single major character suffers these in spades in ''MortadeloYFilemon''.

* ''SinCity'' has the death of Jack Rafferty, which is probably one of the most gruesome deaths in the series (which is saying something) but also the funniest. His dialogue helps.

* In ''{{Asterix}}'', whenever our heroes go up against the legionaries, the legionaries end up with these. Often they are punch-drunk, to boot.

* Ditto for PlasticMan whenever he appears. Batman seems particularly fond of hurting him.
