* A pivotal turning point in the original ''ComicBook/SpiderMan2099'' run featured Miguel O'Hara (Spider-Man) discovering that the main antagonist of the series and head of the megacorp Alchemax, Tyler Stone, was in fact his father. This derailed the current plotline for quite a few issues as Miguel wrestled with his hatred of the man. The trope was lampshaded near the end of the title's run, when Tyler attempted to shock Miguel into following his orders by dropping the bombshell of his parentage, only to have Miguel, who by this point had come to terms with the fact, casually sip his coffee and then smugly and calmly reveal that he knows.

* Mr. Sinister pulls a particularly unpleasant Luke, I Am Your Father on Gambit in ''[[ComicBook/XMen X-Men: The End]]'' when he reveals that Gambit is a clone created from Sinister's original DNA mixed with that of [[TangledFamilyTree Scott Summers]]. Thankfully, this probably isn't canon -- the Summers have a messed-up history as it is.

** This also occurs in a prequel tie-in to ''ComicBook/HouseOfM''. Polaris, Quicksilver and Wanda (she's not the Scarlet Witch, long story), are Magneto's loyal lieutenants throughout his campaign to TakeOverTheWorld and keeps the fact that he's their father from them the whole time, although ironically he acts more like a [[ParentalSubstitute father figure]] to all of them than in the mainstream universe; they assume he just sees them as [[LikeASonToMe like his children]]. When victory is achieved he reveals the truth and they are... not pleased, since their lives between him abandoning them as babies and them joining his army as adults were pretty rough and they could have really used a father growing up. They also don't look kindly on his [[DaddyHadAGoodReasonForAbandoningYou explanation]] that it was to protect them.

* Eighteen years after their creation, it was revealed that [[ComicBook/TheAvengers Avengers]] ComicBook/ScarletWitch and ComicBook/{{Quicksilver}} were actually the children of their former leader, long-time ComicBook/XMen antagonist ComicBook/{{Magneto}}. Their feelings over this revelation were mixed, to put it mildly. Still, as Magneto is a DramaQueen, he did not told this ''directly''. He told that Luna was his granddaughter, and let them react to that.
** Polaris, of the X-Men, was revealed early on to be Magneto's daughter, too. But then that was revealed to actually be a plot by the villain Mesmero, who was using a Magneto robot to make that claim. Then later it was again revealed that she ''is'' his daughter... then once again not. Currently, she is once again revealed to be Magneto's daughter... ugh.

-->'''Hiro-Kala:''' Who are you?\\
'''Banner:''' Your... your father.\\
'''Hiro-Kala:''' Hmp. I don't think so.\\
'''Banner:''' Yeah, [[YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry I'm not too happy about it either.]]
* During John Ostrander's run of ''ComicBook/ThePunisher'', Jigsaw has kidnapped the member's of a mafia family that Frank has fallen in with. While talking with the oldest sister, he tells them why he's doing this; he and Frank are cousins. When they were kids, Frank was always showing him up, and everyone loved him. When she asks him if it's true, he says nah. He was just lying to pass the time.
