** Jubilee is a fun loving girl with a penchant for wisecracks and looking out for Wolverine. She's gone roller blading with Professor X when he had temporary use of his legs, once swapped Cyclops's ruby quartz glasses for a pair of Foster-Grants, and was devastated when Illyana died from the Legacy virus ([[IGotBetter She got better]]). She's also a walking nuclear bomb who holds back the bulk of her power for fear of killing someone. She has, in no particular order: blown up the Mandarin's mansion after thinking Wolverine was dead, beat up two hitmen who killed her parents, tricked Emplate into feeding on her first after poking at his family issues, ensuring that when he absorbed her power, he'd instantly lose control of them, and once blew up a godlike being by finally permitting herself to access the ''full'' measure of her power.

*** Arguably the best example is in ''Batman: Hush'', when it appears as though the Joker has killed Tommy Elliot (though this "Tommy" would later revealed to be Clayface, with the real Elliot, acting as the eponymous villain Hush, having manipulated the whole situation from afar.) It appears as though this is the time that the Joker has pushed Batman to his breaking point, as he begins attacking Joker ''much'' more brutally that he usually does, like, to the point where the Joker himself (who usually enjoys it when Batman beats him up) begins literally ''begging'' him to stop and adamantly insisting that he didn't kill Elliot. Both Harley Quinn and Catwoman try to stop him but are unable to. We actually see Batman contemplate which way to actually kill the Joker, debating whether he should crush his windpipe, push his ribs through his lungs to rupture his heart, or even repeatedly smash his skull into the pavement (which for Batman is actually quite terrifying.) It's only after Jim Gordon arrives on the scene and fires several warning shots at him and actually manages to reason with him that he relents.

** While most of the ComicBook/{{Robin}}s have notorious and well known tempers, including ComicBook/{{Nightwing}}, Tim Drake has a well earned reputation for maintaining a level head, because he funnels his anger into quietly and secretly plotting the thorough demise of those who piss him off. A couple of bad futures show just how dangerous he could be if pushed past the breaking point. The danger he poses is compounded by his [[LoopholeAbuse flexible]] view on the family's no killing rule, even when he considers himself to be sticking to it he's willing to blow up the place his enemies are located at as long as he tells them they ought to leave ''while he's doing so''. He's also set two sets of assassins against each other to fatal results after both got on his bad side.
