* In ''ComicBook/TheSuperiorSpiderMan2023'', Peter points out that Mirage's use of holograms to confuse others has a critical weakness: since none of the holograms are tangible, they can't cast a shadow under the light from a streetlamp that Peter is hanging on. Realizing this enables Bailey to catch and clobber Mirage.

* One ''House of Secrets'' tale makes the issue that having no shadow would mean invisibility a plot point. A scientist discovers that an opal was changed by radiation to absorb any shadow it touches, casting it again once light is shone through from another angle. Using it to capture the shadows of multiple objects, he successfully uses them to pull of a robbery, evading arrest when pursued by capturing his own shadow. Later, he reads in the news that the objects whose shadows he's taken have become invisible, before realizing the same has happened to him. The story ends with him contemplating confession and imprisonment on the chance both his shadow and visibility can be restored before it's too late.
* In ''[[ComicBook/LukeCage Power Man]] and ComicBook/IronFist'' Tyrone King was seen casting no shadow. According to [[http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2013/08/02/comic-book-legends-revealed-430/3/ this]] you were supposed to suspect he was a vampire, but he wasn't.
