History GoryDiscretionShot / Webcomics

** The villain dispassionately watches for [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0830.html six panels]] while his victim succumbs to a TouchOfDeath. Not that the victim didn't [[KickTheSonOfABitch deserve]] it, but ''damn,'' that's cold.

* ''Webcomic/{{TREVOR}}'': A spurt of blood flying across the room is all we see of Dr. Smithe’s death at the hands of [[spoiler: Trevor]].

* In ''Webcomic/AngelDown'': We never get to see exactly what [[spoiler: Ward]] did to the drug dealer, just that it was gruesome enough to get his entire forearm soaked in blood.
* [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/Park Park]]'s comics tend to utilize this trope, such as in ''Webcomic/TheWard''.

** Also, we don't actually see what Von Pinn does to Judy, just the Castle Wulfenbach students' horrified reactions. For that matter, we don't see what she did to André (but then, neither did Agatha).

* Happens a few times in ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance''. For example, [[http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=040628 this]].
* ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'':
** The last frame of [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0612.html this strip]], and probably a few others.
** See also [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0614.html this page]] where the girls find the body. For an early example, see the last panel of [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0020.html this strip]].
** Six panels straight of [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0830.html this]] strip, while the villain watches dispassionately. Not that the victim didn't [[KickTheSonOfABitch deserve]] it, but ''damn,'' that's cold.
* While normally averted in ''Webcomic/CharbyTheVampirate'' Menu tearing apart and eating the scientists in the cabin is shown as a silhouette, and then just the gore encrusted things in the room.
* ''Webcomic/EverydayHeroes'' has an example [[http://eheroes.smackjeeves.com/comics/1991015/how-it-ended/ here]] when Goldie is betrayed by her [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder backstabbing]] boss.

* ''Webcomic/DieselSweeties'' uses it [[http://www.dieselsweeties.com/archive/2307 here.]]
* ''Webcomic/{{Goblins}}'': The comic featuring a man getting crushed to death by his own armor, complete with eyeball popping out -- still draws the line at killing children onscreen.
* ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures'' In Abel's Story, some particularly gory scenes are depicted as silhouettes.

* ''Webcomic/SchlockMercenary'':
** While Kevyn is setting some of his own broken bones, the narrator pulls back to [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2006-12-01 a long shot]], and cuts the audio when he starts screaming and comparing the pus to tapioca.
** Captain Tagon isn't shown [[http://www.schlockmercenary.com/d/20100815.html extracting a knife that was stuck in his eye]] or what he does with it to the knife thrower, but from the concluding scene [[http://www.schlockmercenary.com/d/20100816.html the next day]], it wasn't pretty.
* Used a few times in ''Webcomic/TheAdventuresOfDrMcNinja'', such as [[http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/15p34 here]].
* ''Webcomic/LeavingTheCradle'': After the alien shuttle was shot down, we don't see the full bodies of the alien security team when the general sees it. From what [[https://leavingthecradle.com/comic/16 little]] we do [[https://leavingthecradle.com/comic/30 see]] afterwards, however, it certainly isn't pretty. The soldiers [[https://leavingthecradle.com/comic/57 mention]] that they had found a total of six and a ''half'' bodies.

* Used in ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' a couple of times.
** In the Hivestuck arc, a flashback shows how Vriska Serket used Aradia Megido's boyfriend, Sollux Captor, to murder her. The last we see of Aradia in this flashback is the flashing lights on her face from Sollux's glowing eyes, caused by his powers, while Aradia looks up at him in confusion and Vriska messages her "Arrivederci, Megido", leaving the readers to assume from there what happened.
** When Jack Noir receives Bec's powers, all we see is a brief shot of Bro and Davesprite staring before the screen fades to static.
** Another example is after [[spoiler:Gamzee]] snaps. We see [[spoiler:him]] advancing on [[spoiler: Nepeta, with his clubs,]] but we don't see the killing. When we see [[spoiler:Nepeta]]'s corpse later, we can't see any of the wounds either.
** During Jack Noir's Webcomic/{{Jailbreak}} [[MythologyGag adventure]], he conveniently "bes the other (dead) guy" while being beaten senseless by prison guards.
* ''Webcomic/VGCats'' uses this a number of times. Two come to mind: when Aeris [[spoiler: aborts Leo from [[http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=269 time]]]] and when Leo [[http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=271 goes back in time]] ForScience!!
* ''Webcomic/DubiousCompany'''s Tiren attacks a group of soldiers off-panel. All the reader sees of the carnage is Sal's [[{{Squick}} squicked ]] [[NauseaFuel out]] reaction and a bit of blood speckle the wall.
* An example from ''Webcomic/ZombieRanch'' is shown [[http://www.zombieranchcomic.com/2009/12/09/nuthin-but-meat/ here]]. A child zombie's skull is detonated, but all we see is the resulting splatter on the wall.
* In ''Webcomic/BobAndGeorge'', [[http://www.bobandgeorge.com/archives/000727c the death of the Yellow Demon as splattered yellow goo.]]
* ''Webcomic/TrueVillains'' has the werewolf Xeke [[http://www.truevillains.com/comic-2012-04-20-Battle%20on%20the%20Planes%20I-jpg.htm biting a man's head off]], seen only in shadow.
* ''Webcomic/SomethingPositive'': [=PeeJee=] discovers that her boyfriend has been cheating on her. The next panel shows the exterior of the bar where the gang are celebrating Halloween, then blood splattered on the window as Kyle hits it.
* [[PlayingwithaTrope Played]] with in [[http://www.comics.thecodecrimson.com/?webcomic_post=issue-1-page-14/ Issue 1]] of ''The Webcomic/CodeCrimson'' during [[spoiler:Miguel's]] surprise death. We see silhouettes of the murder, followed by a sneering blood-splattered reaction shot, and then his bloody corpse awash in a sea of blood. [[OverdrawnattheBloodBank So much blood...]]

* In ''Webcomic/MMBN7TheWorldTournament'', during Tomahawkman and Woodman's match, Woodman has Tomahawkman pinned down but Tomahawk is able to grab his tomahawk. Woodman is essentially a giant tree. [[{{Squick}} Do the math]].
* Used in ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'' when we're shown how Mort the Ghost died [[spoiler:as a young boy during the Blitz]]. First, there's a page with a textbook cross-section of the bombs used. Then, a pile of rubble and a bloodied white helmet.

* Used in ''Webcomic/GrimTalesFromDownBelow'', when [[spoiler: the [[FanNickname Pumpkinator]] rips Minnie to shreds, all we see are [[WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas Lock's, Shock's, and Barrel's]] horrified faces, [[WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas Oogie's]] scary-happy face, and a couple of Minnie's severed body parts flying.]] However, in the same comic page, [[spoiler: we see Junior's horrified face, and the cause of it: Minnie's shredded up body, organs, appendages, and a look on her face that screams [[MercyKill "KILL ME!".]]]]

In ''Webcomic/AngelDown'': We never get to see exactly what [[spoiler: Ward]] did to the drug dealer, just that it was gruesome enough to get his entire forearm soaked in blood.

* Captain Tagon, in ''Webcomic/SchlockMercenary'', isn't shown [[http://www.schlockmercenary.com/d/20100815.html extracting a knife that was stuck in his eye]] or what he does with it to the knife thrower, but from the concluding scene [[http://www.schlockmercenary.com/d/20100816.html the next day]], it wasn't pretty.
