* There's a joke in which a new recruit is told that the Army doesn't have enough equipment for him, so he should use sticks as stand-ins for his rifle and knife, with the appropriate Unsound Effects of "bangety-bang" and "stabbety-stab" respectively. He makes it into the field so "equipped", and returns wounded. When asked what happened, he replies that [[spoiler:he was run over by a guy muttering "tankety-tank".]]

* ''Manga/AyakashiTriangle'': In the English version, Mei [[ShadowWalker teleporting from shadow]] is given the sound effect "voom", and the ExtremeCloseUp of her breasts in the next panel [[BuxomIsBetter "va-voom"]]. This is slightly different from the Japanese version, where the joke was both using the same sound effect, "zu-zu-zu (rumbling)".

** This is all probably inspired by the (Japan-only) ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyoQuest'''s (one of the few games in the series without extensive voice acting) use of equally bizarre ''gitaigo'', something which is sometimes even pointed out by [[OnlySaneMan Ringo]] in-universe.

** Some of the comic's pop-culture references are written into sound effects (e.g. "NWOBHM" -- NewWaveOfBritishHeavyMetal).
** The joke of the '''PLOT''' effect is, of course, that it is ''also'' representing the sound of what's happening.
** Other sound effects include [[http://archives.erfworld.com/Book%201/139 "YTMND," "NSFW," and "4CHAN."]]

** ''8-bit'' also
uses "scamper" as the occasional "walk walk walk" sound effect, and so forth.
* ''Webcomic/TwentyFirstCenturyFox'': What kind of sound does an idler pulley make when
a tracked robot takes damage from some falling rocks? Apparently, it makes a [[http://techfox.comicgenesis.com/d/20150209.html "sprocket"]] noise, among others.

* Played with to good effect in the last three strips of [[http://www.absurdnotions.org/page122.html this]] ''Absurd Notions'' page. (To best get the layered jokes, you should know that the character seen in the last strip [[spoiler:is named Biff]].)
* ''Webcomic/{{Achewood}}'' has [[http://achewood.com/index.php?date=05022005 one]] that crosses over with BilingualBonus: ''diis aliter visum'' translates from Latin to "the gods decided otherwise". Highly appropriate for one who has come BackFromTheDead.
* ''Webcomic/{{Adventurers}}'' had several.
** One strip in the final boss battle gives us "Slash! Cleave! Bisect!" Another from earlier has [[http://www.adventurers-comic.com/d/20030610.html "That sound ninjas make when they jump silently!"]], and then later [[http://www.adventurers-comic.com/d/20030612.html "That same sound from the last comic about jumping ninjas!"]]
** [[http://www.adventurers-comic.com/d/20020725.html Sound associated with a falling safe!]]
* ''Webcomic/TheAdventuresOfDrMcNinja'':
** Dr [=McN=] jumps on a motorbike driven by a ninja and whispers something in his ear to creep him out and throw him off the bike. The [[http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/4p26/ resulting]]
sound effect is "CREEPED OUT ENOUGH TO BE THROWN EASILY FROM THE BIKE". This is then {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d in the AltText which reads "Oh come on. That is not a real sound effect at all."

* In ''Webcomic/AliceAndTheNightmare'' the fridge Alice discovers in her room gets its very own "sound" effect
[[http://www.flyingmanandfriends.com/?p=373 this strip]].
aliceandthenightmare.com/comic/chapter-1-page-34 "mini fridge!"]].
* Used frequently ''Webcomic/{{Amazoness}}!'' gives us "Maim!" "Eviscerate!" "Impale!" "Slice!"
* Lampshaded
in ''Webcomic/{{EVIL}}'', with examples including "Leave, Leave", "Push!" and "Speedlines!"
* ''Webcomic/{{Erfworld}}'' includes sound effects like "PLOT", "Warn", "Sweep", or
''Webcomic/AnsemRetort'', [[http://ansemretort.org/ansemretort/index.html?comic=49 by the titular character]].
** Much later, [[http://www.ansemretort.org/ansemretort/index.html?comic=494 bats]]. Then [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Larxene.]]
** One strip
even [[http://archives.erfworld.com/Book%201/120 "redox"]]. Interestingly, it avoids this trope more often than not, sometimes confusing readers as to what had the sound effect represents. For example, some were unsure of "TIME GETTING F***ED".
* ''Webcomic/{{Anthronauts}}'' recently gave us the unusual "''Ker-Squid''". But, exactly
what "free-deep" was, until it was explained that it was a cricket chirp.
** Some of the comic's pop-culture references are written into
sound effects (e.g. "NWOBHM" -- NewWaveOfBritishHeavyMetal).
** The joke of the '''PLOT''' effect is, of course, that
'''should''' a squid make when it is ''also'' representing the sound of what's happening.
** Other sound effects include [[http://archives.erfworld.com/Book%201/139 "YTMND," "NSFW," and "4CHAN."]]
*** And the incantation for the spell that caused the "NSFW" sound effect was "[[ShockSite Lemonparty, Tubgirl, Meatspin, Goatse]]." The epitome of NSFW sites.
** And someone was killed by the sound effect RROD referring to the [[UsefulNotes/Xbox360 Red Rings of Death]].
** The greatly amusing [[http://archives.erfworld.com/Book%202/200 HEISMAN!]]
crash-lands on somebody's head?



* Done at least [[http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=429#comic once]]in ''Webcomic/SaturdayMorningBreakfastCereal''. Well, what sound would you expect when you [[UsefulNotes/BritishEnglish lamp]] someone with a lamp?

* ''Webcomic/AxeCop'' uses them; in "Axe Cop Gets Married", the fight with the final boss involves him transforming around into different forms, and all get their own written sound effects or unsound effects like "VINE!" (when he transforms into a plant), but when he transforms into a house with big long legs, even unsound effects fail and we get "?!?!!".
* ''Badass Muthas'' does [[http://badassmuthas.com/pages/comic.php?7 this]].
* A staple in ''Webcomic/BeaverAndSteve'' comics.

** BOJANGLES! serves both as a description of WHAT is getting hit and a pretty damn good Unsound Effect for getting hit there.
** SPLODE!
** "SMITE!" and "Headdesk!" and probably a few more.
* ''Webcomic/{{Blip}}'' constantly parodies this, often reacting to real onomatopoeias in-universe.
* ''Webcomic/TheBMovieComic'': [[http://www.bmoviecomic.com/?cid=238 Bludgeon! Scythe!]]
* ''Webcomic/BobTheAngryFlower'': [[http://angryflower.com/birpar.html *mumble* *disperse*]]
* Many in ''Webcomic/BoyAndDog'', including "cake", "[[AssShove rectum]]", "standing unassisted", "[[GroinAttack nuts]]", "nap", and "fur".
* One episode of ''[[http://www.bristled-comic.com/view.php?date=2006-12-08 Bristled]]'' features ''GRAB!''
* ''Webcomic/BrawlInTheFamily'': FALCON SLEEP! FALCON SLEEP! FALCON SLEEP!
** You can consider "FALCON X!" pretty much his CatchPhrase in this universe. Even
when you [[UsefulNotes/BritishEnglish lamp]] someone he shouldn't reasonably be saying it ("[[WithCatlikeTread FALCON SNEAK!]]").
* ''Webcomic/BugMartini'': Bug assumes that [[http://www.bugmartini.com/comic/steal-a-few-winks/ Burgle]] is the noise that burglar makes.
* ''Webcomic/CaseyAndAndy'' has the Mime Assassin firing an invisible sniper rifle
with [[http://www.galactanet.com/comic/view.php?strip=90 "SILENCE!"]]
** Also [[http://www.galactanet.com/comic/view.php?strip=579 this strip]], which has "Silence" amongst others.
* ''Webcomic/{{Chainsawsuit}}'': [[http://chainsawsuit.com/comic/2011/05/12/fine-old-destination/ "Accident".]]
* ''Webcomic/CharbyTheVampirate'' does this quite frequently,

* ''Webcomic/TheCyantianChronicles'' has used:
** "*Pity Me*", Including the asterisks while Khaelis was giving Darius PuppyDogEyes.
** ''Akaelae'' has recently used both "Pounce" and "Glomp" as sound effects.
* These have become something of a RunningGag on ''Webcomic/DaisyOwl''. A recent strip indicates the tucking in of a bib with ''"tuck tuck"'', while the AltText explains "that sound effect was originally going to be ''"bib bib bib"'' but I felt [[TheWorldIsNotReady the world was not ready]]".

** [[TheBully The bullies]]' attack on Crimney had no words in the entire panel, but many sound effects, and unsound effects such as [[http://www.sinfest.net/view.php?date=2012-04-22 snatch and tackle]].

* "Sucker Punch'd!" in many ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures'' strips. [[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_686.php]] [[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_706.php]] [[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_733.php]]

** And now: "[[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_1176.php (magical) SUCKERPUNCH!]]"
** We proudly present: "[[http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_1322.php The Grand-Daddy of all SUCKERPUNCH'D!"]] Abel sports a wicked left hook.
* ''Webcomic/UserFriendly'' had some 'interesting' sounds for coffee brewing: "sizzle", "congeal", "fold proteins", "curdle", "sprout". Of course, given that previous coffee-brewing efforts have intentionally created a brew that has the properties of [[Franchise/{{Alien}} Xenomorph]] acid-for-blood and one that was made with parts of [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos Hastur]], this may indicate a success.
** In another strip, when someone was writing a program to trick someone else, the Unsounds were 'Code Plot Plan' as he was typing.
* ''Webcomic/NoNeedForBushido'' uses these in nearly every comic.

** Dr [=McN=] jumps on a motorbike driven by a ninja and whispers something in his ear to creep him out and throw him off the bike.

* ''Webcomic/TheWotch'' and its spinoff ''Cheer!'' do this heavily, with examples such as: [[GenderBender *Ka-girl* ]] *open*, *swap*, *stare*, *harm*, *regress*, *swap*, *gravity*, *vertical ascent*, *tie up*, *disguise*, *not there*, *...psyche* , and many more. Yes, with the asterisks.
** Both series use them to the point that an actual sound effect in either goes on to become pretty rare, and there's a running gag of "ka-something" sounds. "Ka-zap" eventually becomes "Ka-*effect here* " which is how "ka-girl" got started (and eventually became a verb. "Why am I always the one you ka-girl for a joke?") Eventually, you have stuff like "Ka-annoyed!" after too many transformations, and "Ka-meraderie!" when 32 tries to gloss over the fact that ''nobody'' believes she's the person she's standing in for by acting all chummy. The best is "ka-asking-for-it!"

* In ''Webcomic/DoesNotPlayWellWithOthers'', John Johnson, the muscle wizard, attacks with a [[http://www.doesnotplaywellwithothers.com/comics/pwc-0169 Ka-Fist!]].
* [[http://www.dorktower.com/2012/12/04/fake-geek-girl-dork-tower-04-12-12/ This]] ''Webcomic/DorkTower'' strip has Unsound Effects in every panel except the last one.
* ''Webcomic/DoubleK'' brings us [[http://captainosaka.deviantart.com/art/DOUBLE-K-023-105633536 BAIL]]. And later on, '''"[[http://captainosaka.deviantart.com/gallery/704630#/d36kzc0 C4.]]"''' Yes, period and all.
* ''Webcomic/DragonMail'' gets off to a running start with this trope, using "[[http://dragonmail.fadri.org/index.php?pg=3&lg=en Quicky Quicky!]]" on the third page.
* ''Webcomic/DumbingOfAge'' brings us the [[http://www.dumbingofage.com/2014/comic/book-4/02-i-was-a-teenage-churchmouse/jag/ "RESLAM!"]]
* ''Webcomic/{{Erfworld}}'' includes sound effects like "PLOT", "Warn", "Sweep", or even [[http://archives.erfworld.com/Book%201/120 "redox"]]. Interestingly, it avoids this trope more often than not, sometimes confusing readers as to what the sound effect represents. For example, some were unsure what "free-deep" was, until it was explained that it was a cricket chirp.
** Some of the comic's pop-culture references are written into sound effects (e.g. "NWOBHM" -- NewWaveOfBritishHeavyMetal).
** The joke of the '''PLOT''' effect is, of course, that it is ''also'' representing the sound of what's happening.
** Other sound effects include [[http://archives.erfworld.com/Book%201/139 "YTMND," "NSFW," and "4CHAN."]]
*** And the incantation for the spell that caused the "NSFW" sound effect was "[[ShockSite Lemonparty, Tubgirl, Meatspin, Goatse]]." The epitome of NSFW sites.
** And someone was killed by the sound effect RROD referring to the [[UsefulNotes/Xbox360 Red Rings of Death]].
** The greatly amusing [[http://archives.erfworld.com/Book%202/200 HEISMAN!]]
* Used frequently in ''Webcomic/{{EVIL}}'', with examples including "Leave, Leave", "Push!" and "Speedlines!"

* ''Webcomic/{{Freefall}}'': For an electromagnetic pulse designed to trash any electronic recording devices, [[http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff2600/fc02579.htm this strip]] uses "TESLA" to signify the sound.
* ''Webcomic/FriendlyHostility'' does this a lot. [[http://friendlyhostility.com/d/20081231.html One strip]] featured a character opening and then closing a sash window, with the sound effects *UUUUP* and *DOOOWN*.
** [[http://friendlyhostility.com/d/20080123.html Another strip]] simply used the effect "*sound of pants falling*". [[NotWhatItLooksLike Not What It Sounds Like]], by the way.
** [[http://friendlyhostility.com/d/20081205.html "*The Sound of Clothing Dropping at a Rapid Speed*", "*unbutton unbutton unbutton* "]]. ''Definitely'' what it sounds like, by the way.
** ''[[http://friendlyhostility.com/d/20081029.html *BOOT!*]]''
* [[http://dummcomics.com/2010/01/10/strawberrys-quest-part-10 This]] installment of ''[[Webcomic/DummComics Frog Raccoon Strawberry]]'' has "Whatever Sound Snow Makes When It Encapsulates People and Freezes!!"
* ''Webcomic/FruitIncest'' uses a few, including the frequently occurring "Explosion" and "Barge In".
* ''Webcomic/GastroPhobia'': One strip has "MAKE-OUT SOUNDS!" when Phobia kisses the doctor.



* ''Webcomic/GhastlysGhastlyComic'': At least one subversion: "Fap! Fap! Fap!" is not [[ADateWithRosiePalms what]] the character entering the scene (and you) thought. It was [[spoiler:a perfectly innocent snowball fight with the snowballs hitting the house wall.]]



* ''Webcomic/{{Goblins}}'' uses this in some of the Tempts Fate side comics.
** [[http://www.goblinscomic.org/tempts-fate-5/ TELEPORT NOISE! (Possibly "BAMF")]] is used in TF 5. In the next TF, it reappears with a different comment: [[http://www.goblinscomic.org/tempts-fate-6/ TELEPORT NOISE (As per the order of Marvel Comics Legal Department, the noise is most definitely not "BAMF", nor is it "SNIKT" or "THWIP".)]]
** [[http://www.goblinscomic.com/09162011/ KERSPLOSIONFORNOREASON!]]
* "Bang" not for you? ''Webcomic/GoneWithTheBlastwave'' has [[http://www.blastwave-comic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=40 -BULLET SOUND-]]
** Don't forget the legendary "shotgun" sound from the [[http://www.blastwave-comic.com/images/green2.jpg impossible to find]] green comic.
* In ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'':
** shrinking with "shrink soda" gives off a "sha-rink!" sound.
** And also "insert rather ordinary door bell sound here".
** [[https://egscomics.com/comic/party-062 One comic]] has three rapid-fire examples: "quack!" for ducking, "purse!" for reaching into a purse, and "adorn!" for putting on a pair of sunglasses.
* ''Webcomic/GreyIs'': [[http://greyismanga.com/manga/ch008-hearts-strength/chapter-008-page-17 Check check check]]
* ''Webcomic/GrrlPower'' has a ''lot'', due to [[AuthorAppeal Dave B. enjoying the concept of]] [[PerfectlyCromulentWord "nonomatopoeia"]]
** [[http://www.grrlpowercomic.com/archives/1004 GIBBS!]] (for a ShoutOut to Series/{{NCIS}}' DopeSlap)

** Later on there's the memorable "[[http://grrlpowercomic.com/archives/1543 KA-PANTS]]" after a villain's Hulk-out has a predictable reaction to his garments.
** When a werewolf [[http://grrlpowercomic.com/archives/2178 assumes his true form]]
--->''Embiggen - Enfuzzen - Enwolfen - [[LampshadeHanging You get the idea]]''
** And of course "[[http://grrlpowercomic.com/archives/2864 FABRIC OF THE VERY UNIVERSE TORN ASUNDER]]" when exactly that happens.
* ''Webcomic/GuildedAge'':
** After [[spoiler:Best's fight with Byron]], the "sound effect" for Frigg's shrug was "INDIFFERENCE".
** Earlier, after Bandit proves Byron right: "'''SMUG'''"
** Syr'Nj's smile, after she and her cohorts receive a diplomatic appointment, has the "sound effect" of "KA-PEACE!"
* ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'':
** "[[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=284 Spankies!]]", "Trundle", '''[[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=239 SLAM DUNKIN]]''', [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=172 "Rocket!"]].
** ''GC'' deserves props for possibly being the first ever use of "[[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=511 Blink]]" for something ''completely unrelated'' to SqueakyEyes.
** This is {{lampshade|Hanging}}d by the author in the footnotes of this page: [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=268 "Single bound!"]].
** There's one for a door slamming, "[[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=588 SLAM]]" and then "SLAM AGAIN"
** Jones gives us [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=584 "Nuuudge."]]



* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'':
** '''[[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003403 "Egg!"]]''' {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d (uh, sort of) a little later, when the Peregrine Mendicant hears "EGG" and comments that "it almost sounded like a huge egg appeared in the sky and landed, and then someone mysterious teleported out of it."
** [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/index.php?s=6&p=002607 ...try]].
** Inverted with PCHOOOOO, which John believes is a blast-off rocket sound effect, but it's actually the captcha code for the rocket pack.
** Due to ''Homestuck'''s animated nature, it mostly doesn't need sound effects. Any that show up are for humourous effect. Meaning this trope.
** [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004030 UNSURPRISING DEVELOPMENT]]
** GENUINE DISTRESS!
** '''[[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004314 "WHALE!"]]''' followed quickly by [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004320 "FISHFOOD"]]
** '''[[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004182 "STRONGJUMP!" as well as "RUIN!"]]'''
** When Tavros is finally shown [[StaircaseTumble falling down a flight of stairs]], the effect is simply [[Webcomic/SweetBroAndHellaJeff "HAPPEN"]] and later when Karkat falls down with Sollux, it's [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005325 "HAPPEN 2x... COMBOB"]]].
** Rose has used "distaction" [sic].
** [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005199 "DEAD."]] is a pretty spectacular example, along with a continuation of the comic's tradition of emoticon soundeffects.
** [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005233 And again]], now accompanied by a [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005225 "KO'D."]] And [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005247 again]]. And [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005348 again]], and [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005437 again]], and [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/scratch.php?s=6&p=005763 again]], and [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=006007 again]]. (Obviously, major spoilers in all the links.)
** [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005243 "HOPESPLODE!"]] There were also a few "ROBOSPLODE"! around.
** "CLOCK" is used when Cans [[NotHyperbole literally punches Diamonds Droog into next week]], and then punches Hearts Boxcars into [[UpToEleven a different calender entirely.]]
** What sound does breaking a magic [[InsistentTerminology sorry we mean "science"]] wand make? [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005432 "DEBUNK!"]] of course!
** In Act 5, Karkat [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004197 surmises]] that stabbing is how Jack Noir greets people. Jack later stabs Dream Jane with [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=006296 "greet."]]
** One of the more frequent uses is "+ify" for something being appearified and "-ify" for something being sendificated.
** When Dirk is drawing smut on Caliborn's request, after a [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/storyfiles/hs2/scraps/smuut1.gif "cop"]] we are given the immortal [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/storyfiles/hs2/scraps/smuut2.gif "uncop"]].
** John's adventure through Caliborn's horrible drawings in [=A6A6A2=] gives us "HORSE ACCIDENT.". Yes, the period is part of the sound effect.
** In '''[[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/GAMEOVER [S] Game Over]]''', the fight between John and Caliborn is riddled with them, to hilarious effects.
** '''[[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004128 E%AMPLE]]'''
** '''HAPPEN!''' is particularly popular, especially around stairs, as a reference to the ''Webcomic/SweetBroAndHellaJeff'' meme [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/sweetbroandhellajeff/?cid=001.jpg "It keeps happening!"]]



* In ''WebOriginal/JennyEverywhere'' comics, the sound of Jenny's "shifting" is sometimes rendered as simply "''Shift!''", although it's also been ascribed a variety of more conventional sound effects, including "''Womph''", "''Fzzzz''" and "''Splink''".
* ''Webcomic/KevinAndKell'': {{Dope|Slap}} [[http://www.kevinandkell.com/2004/kk0418.html Slap]]!



* Steve of ''Webcomic/LifeAndDeath'', being [[TheUnfettered who he is]], [[GroinAttack goes right for the nuts]] with the sound effect, "Cheap shot!" Don't worry, the guy on the receiving end didn't feel a thing (at the moment), and he's a JerkAss anyway.
* ''Webcomic/LifeWithLamarr'' gives us [[http://jill-sandwich.com/lwl/index.php?episode=139 tl;dr]]. There's also the regular use of 'Sqwerk!' for Lamarr.
* ''Webcomic/ALoonaticsTale'' has [[http://static2007.deviantart.com/art/Stone-Cold-Crazy-69-129780175 BWARB]], along with a "Twitch" sound effect for... well, whenever Riley's eye twitches.
** And in [[http://zibaricon.org/animation/therapy/therapy.php this animation]], we see that the twitch DOES make an actual sound.



* ''Luke Surl Comics'' has "[[http://www.lukesurl.com/archives/2566 unbuckle]]".

* ''Webcomic/MacHall'' had one strip where a human character in ''Film/TheMatrix'' universe who points out the film's plotholes is blasted by a laser gun, which makes the sound '''*VOIP!*'''. Not really an Unsound Effect...until one sees the strip immediately after, where one of the machines points out a plothole, and is blasted by a '''*VERY ADVANCED VOIP!*'''
* Whenever some machinery activates in ''Webcomic/TheMansionOfE'', especially in the [=SubShafts=], and it goes, say, ''click'', there's a good chance that it's going to deactivate with an ''unclick''.



* ''Webcomic/MetompsychosisUnion'': When Mag decks a security guard the sound effect is [[https://www.mpscomic.com/comic/chapter-1-page-29/ "KNOCK DOWN".]]
* Occasionally seen in ''Webcomic/AMiracleOfScience'', though the comic usually uses onomatopoeic sound effects. Like "crumple." on [[http://www.project-apollo.net/mos/mos328.html this rather spoilery page]].
* ''[[http://www.firmanproductions.com/ Moe]]'' has several, including [[http://www.firmanproductions.com/?p=671 'BRIBE SLIDE']]
* ''Webcomic/MoodyMarkCrusaders'' has *scootayawn* and *scootasigh*.
* ''Webcomic/MSPaintMasterpieces'' uses "telprot!" (yes, that's spelled correctly) for teleportation. It's a reference to an early strip involving a l33t-speak DOS prompt in Reset Man's head, visible whenever he closed his eyes. "Wtf telprot"

* ''Webcomic/NerfNOW'' likes this trope:
** It gives us [[http://nerfnow.com/comic/27 "ZEEEERGLINGS"]] for the sound of Zerglings, er, being Zerglings. And loving it.
** There's also '''CAPTURE''', '''Loot Loot''' and even '''MAIN PLOT HOOK!'''
** '[[MoreDakka Dakka]]' is a favorite go-to onomatopoeia for gunfire, but it's never been quite as literal as ''[[http://www.nerfnow.com/comic/262 BULLET BULLET BULLET BULLET]].''
* When pookas go back to being visible in ''[[http://mopsy.com/ Never Never]]'', they go "[[SdrawkcabName Foop!]]"
* ''Webcomic/NoNeedForBushido'' uses these in nearly every comic.
** Some that stand out are [[http://nn4b.com/comic/277 Holycrap!]] and [[http://nn4b.com/comic/279 Head... Butt!]]
** '''[[http://nn4b.com/comic/373 Oh? No!]]''' '''[[http://nn4b.com/comic/373 He Didn'!]]'''
** Also, [[http://nn4b.com/comic/376 It's A Trap!]]
** And, '''[[http://nn4b.com/comic/383 REBUTTAL!]]'''
** Not to forget, [[http://nn4b.com/comic/244 Hat!]]
** And, [[http://nn4b.com/?webcomic1=531 '''TREEVENGE!!'']]
** And of course, [[http://nn4b.com/comic/508 '''Implausible!'']]
* Unsound effects occur regularly in ''Webcomic/NotAVillain'': for example, [[http://navcomic.com/archive/page-76/ "ELONGATE" and "IGNORE"]].
* ''Webcomic/NotSoDistant'' uses this quite a bit. Amusingly, "stab" was not used when the main character was stabbed in the leg (splorch), but it WAS used earlier when a pillow got stuck to one of his head spikes (preceded by "flop" as he flopped onto his bed).

* In ''ComicStrip/TheOptimist'': [[http://the-opt.com/?p=992 EXPIRE]], [[http://the-opt.com/?p=794 THROW]], [[http://the-opt.com/?p=125 GOUGE]], [[http://the-opt.com/?p=49 FLEX & SWELL]], [[http://the-opt.com/?p=56 REND & MASTICATE]], [[http://the-opt.com/?p=69 SUBMIT & REFRESH]], [[http://the-opt.com/?p=88 FOLD]], and [[http://the-opt.com/?p=476 this comic]] and [[http://the-opt.com/?p=1299 this comic]] have multiple examples. [[http://the-opt.com/?p=1229 This comic]] has a very large unsound effect as a punchline.
* ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'':
** In [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0017.html an early strip]], Belkar says he could probably sunder Elan's sword just by talking too loudly. Shortly after, they get spotted by a chimera, and Belkar exclaims "DAMN IT!", and Elan's rapier breaks in two, the sound effect being written as "sunder".
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0099.html Pierce! Slash! Bludgeon!]]
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0156.html Sneak!]]
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0437.html AOO!]] is the sound effect for an attack of opportunity, apparently.
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0468.html Smooch! Grope!]]
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0497.html Quarter!]]
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0586.html Nuts!]] is used to indicate a GroinAttack.
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0608.html Apparently]], [[PsychoStrings Eee! Eee! Eee! Eee!]] is the sound of someone being [[PsychoShowerMurderParody stabbed in the shower]].
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0609.html FTTH!]] is the sound of someone getting a Foot to the Head. Also, SCHTUTH! may or may not stand for something similar.
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0653.html Deflect!]]
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0702.html Unfurl!]]
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0748.html Thjunk!]]
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0761.html Swinganamiss!]]
** Stabbing a giant crustacean sounds like [[https://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0905.html Shishkabob!]]
** In an intensely spoileriffic page, apparently the sound effect of someone overcoming a [[MoreThanMindControl Dominate]] spell is "[[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots1001.html Snapoutta!]]".
* In ''Webcomic/{{Overcompensating}}'', an olfactory assault makes a [[http://www.overcompensating.com/posts/20101015.html STAAAAAANK]] sound. {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d in the caption.

* [[http://pasteldefender.com/222.html Here's a variation from]] ''Pastel Defender Heliotrope'' (panel 4)
* ''Webcomic/QuestionableContent'' creator Jeph Jacques uses these quite frequently. Notable and amusing examples include:
** The reviving effects of [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=535 CAFFEINE!]] (also [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/musthavecaffeine.png pictured]] in MustHaveCaffeine) are shown in this ''Webcomic/QuestionableContent'' strip.
** In one guest comic Jacques drew, the characters of ''Niego'' walk into Coffee of Doom and are promptly assaulted by Raven with a chair, with the Unsound Effect of "CHAIR!" and "CHAIR AGAIN!" as they're beat upon.
** It would appear that [[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1445 SCORN!]] seems to have a [[PaintingTheMedium corporeal form]].
** Dancing is emphasized by the dancing sounds...[[http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1597 "DANCE DANCE"]]. The caption suggests this is less about humor and more about making sure the readers know she's dancing.
** Library carts move to the sound of [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=736 Trundle Trundle]].
** "ASS GRAB!"
** Now we have "POWER HUG!"
** [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=956 This strip]] has the caption "[broom broom broom]".




* Done at least [[http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=429#comic once]]in ''Webcomic/SaturdayMorningBreakfastCereal''. Well, what sound would you expect when you [[UsefulNotes/BritishEnglish lamp]] someone with a lamp?
** [[https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/geek-sleeping ACTUALLY!]]
* ''Webcomic/ScaryGoRound'' has Ryan [[http://www.scarygoround.com/?date=20090320 DESPAIR]] at Shelley and Amy's antics.
** John Allison likes Unsound Effects: ''Scary Go Round'''s follow-up ''Webcomic/BadMachinery'' already includes [[http://www.scarygoround.com/index.php?date=20091028 "FLING", "RUMMAGE RUMMAGE"]] and Amy fixing Ryan's hair with "[[http://www.scarygoround.com/index.php?date=20091007 fuss fuss comb interfere]]".
** [[http://scarygoround.com/?date=20100317 STUNTS]]
** And, of course, [[http://scarygoround.com/?date=20130905 PASH]].
** In an inversion of AudibleSharpness, Little Claire's knife is so blunt it goes [[http://scarygoround.com/?date=20110721 BLUNT]].



* ''Webcomic/{{Sinfest}}'' uses this nearly every other strip, notably [[http://www.sinfest.net/view.php?date=2001-06-29 here]], [[http://www.sinfest.net/view.php?date=2009-06-23 here]], [[http://www.sinfest.net/view.php?date=2009-07-03 here]], [[http://www.sinfest.net/view.php?date=2007-11-02 here]], and [[http://www.sinfest.net/view.php?date=2009-10-07 here]] ("VERKLEMPT!" It's Yiddish for "quite upset or emotional.")
** [[TheBully The bullies]]' attack on Crimney had no words in the entire panel, but many sound effects, and unsound effects such as [[http://www.sinfest.net/view.php?date=2012-04-22 snatch and tackle]].
* ''Webcomic/SomethingPositive'':
** [[http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp03282009.shtml "Throwing sound here."]]
** [[http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp03162003.shtml "Sound of liver having an orgasm".]]
** [[http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp03302007.shtml "Insert the sound of fat being angrily displaced."]]
* "Sucker Punch'd!" in many ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures'' strips. [[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_686.php]] [[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_706.php]] [[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_733.php]]
** DMFA also had "De-Pantsu'd!" and "De-Dressu'd!".
** And "Ker-Pwned!"
** And now: "[[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_1176.php (magical) SUCKERPUNCH!]]"
** We proudly present: "[[http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_1322.php The Grand-Daddy of all SUCKERPUNCH'D!"]] Abel sports a wicked left hook.



* ''Webcomic/VGCats'':
** The [[http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=108 Face Full Of Alien Wing Wong]] script has "icky noise" in the penultimate frame.
*** [[http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=190 This one]] has *MONOCLE*

* ''Webcomic/TurnSignalsOnALandRaider'' used
these quite frequently. Notable occasionally. The effect in the last panel of the last comic is, fittingly, "KA-DISCONTINUE!" when an Imperator Titan kicked Jack.
* ''Webcomic/UserFriendly'' had some 'interesting' sounds for coffee brewing: "sizzle", "congeal", "fold proteins", "curdle", "sprout". Of course, given that previous coffee-brewing efforts have intentionally created a brew that has the properties of [[Franchise/{{Alien}} Xenomorph]] acid-for-blood
and amusing examples include:
one that was made with parts of [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos Hastur]], this may indicate a success.
** In another strip, when someone was writing a program to trick someone else, the Unsounds were 'Code Plot Plan' as he was typing.

* ''Webcomic/TheWhiteboard'': On [[http://the-whiteboard.com/autotwb2820.html this page]], Cara's vintage Volkswagen makes a beetlebeetlebeetle noise. Given the car in question, it's not a big stretch.
* ''Webcomic/WoodsForTheTrees'' had "ASS-PINCH" and [[http://woodsforthetrees.comicgenesis.com/d/20061213.html Generic collision noise!]]
* ''Webcomic/TheWotch'' and its spinoff ''Cheer!'' do this heavily, with examples such as: [[GenderBender *Ka-girl* ]] *open*, *swap*, *stare*, *harm*, *regress*, *swap*, *gravity*, *vertical ascent*, *tie up*, *disguise*, *not there*, *...psyche* , and many more. Yes, with the asterisks.
** "ASS GRAB!"
** Now we
Both series use them to the point that an actual sound effect in either goes on to become pretty rare, and there's a running gag of "ka-something" sounds. "Ka-zap" eventually becomes "Ka-*effect here* " which is how "ka-girl" got started (and eventually became a verb. "Why am I always the one you ka-girl for a joke?") Eventually, you have "POWER HUG!"
stuff like "Ka-annoyed!" after too many transformations, and "Ka-meraderie!" when 32 tries to gloss over the fact that ''nobody'' believes she's the person she's standing in for by acting all chummy. The best is "ka-asking-for-it!"

* ''Webcomic/{{xkcd}}'' dabbles with this occasionally.
** [[http://xkcd.com/208/ "Perl!"]] is used for some heroic programming (with regular expressions).
** [[http://xkcd.com/260/ This strip]] has an entire series of them.
** [[http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=956 xkcd.com/433/ This strip]] has "park" as a sound effect.
* ''Webcomic/ZebraGirl'' uses this in one strip, alongside a [[ClueFromEd Message From Ed]] that states that
the caption "[broom broom broom]".creator has no idea what the actions depicted would actually sound like, so he's just gonna make things up.



* [[http://pasteldefender.com/222.html Here's a variation from]] ''Pastel Defender Heliotrope'' (panel 4)



* ''Webcomic/NerfNOW'' likes this trope:
** It gives us [[http://nerfnow.com/comic/27 "ZEEEERGLINGS"]] for the sound of Zerglings, er, being Zerglings. And loving it.
** There's also '''CAPTURE''', '''Loot Loot''' and even '''MAIN PLOT HOOK!'''
** '[[MoreDakka Dakka]]' is a favorite go-to onomatopoeia for gunfire, but it's never been quite as literal as ''[[http://www.nerfnow.com/comic/262 BULLET BULLET BULLET BULLET]].''



* ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'':
** In [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0017.html an early strip]], Belkar says he could probably sunder Elan's sword just by talking too loudly. Shortly after, they get spotted by a chimera, and Belkar exclaims "DAMN IT!", and Elan's rapier breaks in two, the sound effect being written as "sunder".

** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0156.html Sneak!]]
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0437.html AOO!]] is the sound effect for an attack of opportunity, apparently.

** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0497.html Quarter!]]
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0586.html Nuts!]] is used to indicate a GroinAttack.
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0608.html Apparently]], [[PsychoStrings Eee! Eee! Eee! Eee!]] is the sound of someone being [[PsychoShowerMurderParody stabbed in the shower]].
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0609.html FTTH!]] is the sound of someone getting a Foot to the Head. Also, SCHTUTH! may or may not stand for something similar.

** In an intensely spoileriffic page, apparently the sound effect of someone overcoming a [[MoreThanMindControl Dominate]] spell is "[[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots1001.html Snapoutta!]]".
* One episode of ''[[http://www.bristled-comic.com/view.php?date=2006-12-08 Bristled]]'' features ''GRAB!''



* ''Webcomic/{{Achewood}}'' has [[http://achewood.com/index.php?date=05022005 one]] that crosses over with BilingualBonus: ''diis aliter visum'' translates from Latin to "the gods decided otherwise". Highly appropriate for one who has come BackFromTheDead.
* ''Webcomic/DandyAndCompany'': Christmas decorations appear with a massive [[http://www.dandyandcompany.com/2007/11/26/november-26-2007/ JINGLE!]]



* ''Webcomic/MSPaintMasterpieces'' uses "telprot!" (yes, that's spelled correctly) for teleportation. It's a reference to an early strip involving a l33t-speak DOS prompt in Reset Man's head, visible whenever he closed his eyes. "Wtf telprot"



* ''Webcomic/DoubleK'' brings us [[http://captainosaka.deviantart.com/art/DOUBLE-K-023-105633536 BAIL]]. And later on, '''"[[http://captainosaka.deviantart.com/gallery/704630#/d36kzc0 C4.]]"''' Yes, period and all.



* ''Webcomic/MacHall'' had one strip where a human character in ''Film/TheMatrix'' universe who points out the film's plotholes is blasted by a laser gun, which makes the sound '''*VOIP!*'''. Not really an Unsound Effect...until one sees the strip immediately after, where one of the machines points out a plothole, and is blasted by a '''*VERY ADVANCED VOIP!*'''
* ''Webcomic/ThreePanelSoul'' [[http://threepanelsoul.com/2009/11/30/on-gym-visits/ Mustache Mustache Mustache Mustache...]] Also [[http://threepanelsoul.com/2011/05/15/on-male-cats/ BROFACE]].
* ''Webcomic/FriendlyHostility'' does this a lot. [[http://friendlyhostility.com/d/20081231.html One strip]] featured a character opening and then closing a sash window, with the sound effects *UUUUP* and *DOOOWN*.
** [[http://friendlyhostility.com/d/20080123.html Another strip]] simply used the effect "*sound of pants falling*". [[NotWhatItLooksLike Not What It Sounds Like]], by the way.
** [[http://friendlyhostility.com/d/20081205.html "*The Sound of Clothing Dropping at a Rapid Speed*", "*unbutton unbutton unbutton* "]]. ''Definitely'' what it sounds like, by the way.
** ''[[http://friendlyhostility.com/d/20081029.html *BOOT!*]]''
* ''Webcomic/TheCyantianChronicles'' has used:
** "*Pity Me*", Including the asterisks while Khaelis was giving Darius PuppyDogEyes.
** ''Akaelae'' has recently used both "Pounce" and "Glomp" as sound effects.



* ''Webcomic/NotSoDistant'' uses this quite a bit. Amusingly, "stab" was not used when the main character was stabbed in the leg (splorch), but it WAS used earlier when a pillow got stuck to one of his head spikes (preceded by "flop" as he flopped onto his bed).



* ''Webcomic/ScaryGoRound'' has Ryan [[http://www.scarygoround.com/?date=20090320 DESPAIR]] at Shelley and Amy's antics.
** John Allison likes Unsound Effects: ''Scary Go Round'''s follow-up ''Webcomic/BadMachinery'' already includes [[http://www.scarygoround.com/index.php?date=20091028 "FLING", "RUMMAGE RUMMAGE"]] and Amy fixing Ryan's hair with "[[http://www.scarygoround.com/index.php?date=20091007 fuss fuss comb interfere]]".
** [[http://scarygoround.com/?date=20100317 STUNTS]]
** And, of course, [[http://scarygoround.com/?date=20130905 PASH]].
** In an inversion of AudibleSharpness, Little Claire's knife is so blunt it goes [[http://scarygoround.com/?date=20110721 BLUNT]].
* Lampshaded in ''Webcomic/AnsemRetort'', [[http://ansemretort.org/ansemretort/index.html?comic=49 by the titular character]].
** Much later, [[http://www.ansemretort.org/ansemretort/index.html?comic=494 bats]]. Then [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Larxene.]]
** One strip even had the sound effect of "TIME GETTING F***ED".
* ''Webcomic/SomethingPositive'':
** [[http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp03282009.shtml "Throwing sound here."]]
** [[http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp03162003.shtml "Sound of liver having an orgasm".]]
** [[http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp03302007.shtml "Insert the sound of fat being angrily displaced."]]



* ''Webcomic/WoodsForTheTrees'' had "ASS-PINCH" and [[http://woodsforthetrees.comicgenesis.com/d/20061213.html Generic collision noise!]]



* These have become something of a RunningGag on ''Webcomic/DaisyOwl''. A recent strip indicates the tucking in of a bib with ''"tuck tuck"'', while the AltText explains "that sound effect was originally going to be ''"bib bib bib"'' but I felt [[TheWorldIsNotReady the world was not ready]]".
* In ''WebOriginal/JennyEverywhere'' comics, the sound of Jenny's "shifting" is sometimes rendered as simply "''Shift!''", although it's also been ascribed a variety of more conventional sound effects, including "''Womph''", "''Fzzzz''" and "''Splink''".
* ''Webcomic/KevinAndKell'': {{Dope|Slap}} [[http://www.kevinandkell.com/2004/kk0418.html Slap]]!
* ''Webcomic/TurnSignalsOnALandRaider'' used these occasionally. The effect in the last panel of the last comic is, fittingly, "KA-DISCONTINUE!" when an Imperator Titan kicked Jack.
* ''Webcomic/{{Anthronauts}}'' recently gave us the unusual "''Ker-Squid''". But, exactly what sound '''should''' a squid make when it crash-lands on somebody's head?
* ''Webcomic/TheFancyAdventuresOfJackCannon'':
** One strip gives us '''''[[http://fancyadventures.com/2009/06/08/page-96/ AWWKWAAARD!]]'''''
** [[http://fancyadventures.com/2009/08/31/page-120/ *STRUGGLE STRUGGLE*]] and [[http://fancyadventures.com/2012/11/05/page-408/ A DESK!]]



* Used and abused by ''Webcomic/{{Chicanery}}'', with such sterling examples as "*spork*", "STEVE!", and "Brain refusing to function noises".
* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'':
** '''[[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003403 "Egg!"]]''' {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d (uh, sort of) a little later, when the Peregrine Mendicant hears "EGG" and comments that "it almost sounded like a huge egg appeared in the sky and landed, and then someone mysterious teleported out of it."
** [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/index.php?s=6&p=002607 ...try]].
** Inverted with PCHOOOOO, which John believes is a blast-off rocket sound effect, but it's actually the captcha code for the rocket pack.
** Due to ''Homestuck'''s animated nature, it mostly doesn't need sound effects. Any that show up are for humourous effect. Meaning this trope.
** [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004030 UNSURPRISING DEVELOPMENT]]
** GENUINE DISTRESS!
** '''[[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004314 "WHALE!"]]''' followed quickly by [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004320 "FISHFOOD"]]
** '''[[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004182 "STRONGJUMP!" as well as "RUIN!"]]'''
** When Tavros is finally shown [[StaircaseTumble falling down a flight of stairs]], the effect is simply [[Webcomic/SweetBroAndHellaJeff "HAPPEN"]] and later when Karkat falls down with Sollux, it's [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005325 "HAPPEN 2x... COMBOB"]]].
** Rose has used "distaction" [sic].
** [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005199 "DEAD."]] is a pretty spectacular example, along with a continuation of the comic's tradition of emoticon soundeffects.
** [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005233 And again]], now accompanied by a [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005225 "KO'D."]] And [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005247 again]]. And [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005348 again]], and [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005437 again]], and [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/scratch.php?s=6&p=005763 again]], and [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=006007 again]]. (Obviously, major spoilers in all the links.)
** [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005243 "HOPESPLODE!"]] There were also a few "ROBOSPLODE"! around.
** "CLOCK" is used when Cans [[NotHyperbole literally punches Diamonds Droog into next week]], and then punches Hearts Boxcars into [[UpToEleven a different calender entirely.]]
** What sound does breaking a magic [[InsistentTerminology sorry we mean "science"]] wand make? [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005432 "DEBUNK!"]] of course!
** In Act 5, Karkat [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004197 surmises]] that stabbing is how Jack Noir greets people. Jack later stabs Dream Jane with [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=006296 "greet."]]
** One of the more frequent uses is "+ify" for something being appearified and "-ify" for something being sendificated.
** When Dirk is drawing smut on Caliborn's request, after a [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/storyfiles/hs2/scraps/smuut1.gif "cop"]] we are given the immortal [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/storyfiles/hs2/scraps/smuut2.gif "uncop"]].
** John's adventure through Caliborn's horrible drawings in [=A6A6A2=] gives us "HORSE ACCIDENT.". Yes, the period is part of the sound effect.
** In '''[[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/GAMEOVER [S] Game Over]]''', the fight between John and Caliborn is riddled with them, to hilarious effects.
** '''[[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004128 E%AMPLE]]'''
** '''HAPPEN!''' is particularly popular, especially around stairs, as a reference to the ''Webcomic/SweetBroAndHellaJeff'' meme [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/sweetbroandhellajeff/?cid=001.jpg "It keeps happening!"]]



* ''Webcomic/BrawlInTheFamily'': FALCON SLEEP! FALCON SLEEP! FALCON SLEEP!
** You can consider "FALCON X!" pretty much his CatchPhrase in this universe. Even when he shouldn't reasonably be saying it ("[[WithCatlikeTread FALCON SNEAK!]]").
* Steve of ''Webcomic/LifeAndDeath'', being [[TheUnfettered who he is]], [[GroinAttack goes right for the nuts]] with the sound effect, "Cheap shot!" Don't worry, the guy on the receiving end didn't feel a thing (at the moment), and he's a JerkAss anyway.



* ''Webcomic/ALoonaticsTale'' has [[http://static2007.deviantart.com/art/Stone-Cold-Crazy-69-129780175 BWARB]], along with a "Twitch" sound effect for... well, whenever Riley's eye twitches.
** And in [[http://zibaricon.org/animation/therapy/therapy.php this animation]], we see that the twitch DOES make an actual sound.
* ''Webcomic/{{Curvy}}'' has quite a few of these, including (NSFW) [[http://c.urvy.org/?date=20100522 plug]] for a shark being used to plug a hole in a ship, and [[http://c.urvy.org/?date=20100529 inflate]] for someone being magically inflated so she can breathe underwater.
* Played with to good effect in the last three strips of [[http://www.absurdnotions.org/page122.html this]] ''Absurd Notions'' page. (To best get the layered jokes, you should know that the character seen in the last strip [[spoiler:is named Biff]].)
* Occasionally seen in ''Webcomic/AMiracleOfScience'', though the comic usually uses onomatopoeic sound effects. Like "crumple." on [[http://www.project-apollo.net/mos/mos328.html this rather spoilery page]].
* ''[[http://www.firmanproductions.com/ Moe]]'' has several, including [[http://www.firmanproductions.com/?p=671 'BRIBE SLIDE']]



* ''Webcomic/DumbingOfAge'' brings us the [[http://www.dumbingofage.com/2014/comic/book-4/02-i-was-a-teenage-churchmouse/jag/ "RESLAM!"]]
* ''Webcomic/DragonMail'' gets off to a running start with this trope, using "[[http://dragonmail.fadri.org/index.php?pg=3&lg=en Quicky Quicky!]]" on the third page.

* In ''Webcomic/{{Overcompensating}}'', an olfactory assault makes a [[http://www.overcompensating.com/posts/20101015.html STAAAAAANK]] sound. {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d in the caption.
* Whenever some machinery activates in ''Webcomic/TheMansionOfE'', especially in the [=SubShafts=], and it goes, say, ''click'', there's a good chance that it's going to deactivate with an ''unclick''.



* When pookas go back to being visible in ''[[http://mopsy.com/ Never Never]]'', they go "[[SdrawkcabName Foop!]]"
* ''Webcomic/FruitIncest'' uses a few, including the frequently occurring "Explosion" and "Barge In".
* ''Webcomic/LifeWithLamarr'' gives us [[http://jill-sandwich.com/lwl/index.php?episode=139 tl;dr]]. There's also the regular use of 'Sqwerk!' for Lamarr.



* "Chibi!" tends to be a favorite of ''Webcomic/FiyoraNya''.



* ''Luke Surl Comics'' has "[[http://www.lukesurl.com/archives/2566 unbuckle]]".



* ''Webcomic/{{Blip}}'' constantly parodies this, often reacting to real onomatopoeias in-universe.
* ''Webcomic/{{Goblins}}'' uses this in some of the Tempts Fate side comics.
** [[http://www.goblinscomic.org/tempts-fate-5/ TELEPORT NOISE! (Possibly "BAMF")]] is used in TF 5. In the next TF, it reappears with a different comment: [[http://www.goblinscomic.org/tempts-fate-6/ TELEPORT NOISE (As per the order of Marvel Comics Legal Department, the noise is most definitely not "BAMF", nor is it "SNIKT" or "THWIP".)]]
** [[http://www.goblinscomic.com/09162011/ KERSPLOSIONFORNOREASON!]]



* ''Webcomic/ArthurKingOfTimeAndSpace'' has "[[http://www.arthurkingoftimeandspace.com/0683.htm UPSIDE]]".
* Unsound effects occur regularly in ''Webcomic/NotAVillain'': for example, [[http://navcomic.com/archive/page-76/ "ELONGATE" and "IGNORE"]].



* ''Webcomic/FrankieAndStein'' uses this frequently, purposely misspelled, to hysterical affect.

* One strip of ''Webcomic/GastroPhobia'' has "MAKE-OUT SOUNDS!" when Phobia kisses the doctor.
* ''Webcomic/GrrlPower'' has a ''lot'', due to [[AuthorAppeal Dave B. enjoying the concept of]] [[PerfectlyCromulentWord "nonomatopoeia"]]
** [[http://www.grrlpowercomic.com/archives/1004 GIBBS!]] (for a ShoutOut to Series/{{NCIS}}' DopeSlap)

** [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=187 *Happy-flutter-tweet*, Da-da-DOOM, and *casual dust-off*]]
** [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=272 DOOM]]
* ''{{Webcomic/Comc}}'' has had a couple, like *ILLUSION* (for an illusion breaking) or the recurring *ODD*.
* Employed relentlessly in Omar Dogan's ''5th Capsule''. For example: [[http://www.deviantart.com/art/5th-Capsule-page-55-449546085 FLEE!]] [[http://www.deviantart.com/art/5th-Capsule-page-54-449102738 SHOWER SOUNDS!]]



* [[http://dummcomics.com/2010/01/10/strawberrys-quest-part-10 This]] installment of ''[[Webcomic/DummComics Frog Raccoon Strawberry]]'' has "Whatever Sound Snow Makes When It Encapsulates People and Freezes!!"



* ''Webcomic/{{Freefall}}'': For an electromagnetic pulse designed to trash any electronic recording devices, [[http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff2600/fc02579.htm this strip]] uses "TESLA" to signify the sound.



* ''Webcomic/TwentyFirstCenturyFox'': What kind of sound does an idler pulley make when a tracked robot takes damage from some falling rocks? Apparently, it makes a [[http://techfox.comicgenesis.com/d/20150209.html "sprocket"]] noise, among others.
* ''Webcomic/BugMartini'': Bug assumes that [[http://www.bugmartini.com/comic/steal-a-few-winks/ Burgle]] is the noise that burglar makes.
* ''Webcomic/{{Consolers}}'' uses these from time to time:

* In ''Webcomic/AliceAndTheNightmare'' the fridge Alice discovers in her room gets its very own "sound" effect [[http://www.aliceandthenightmare.com/comic/chapter-1-page-34 "mini fridge!"]].



* ''Webcomic/GhastlysGhastlyComic'': At least one subversion: "Fap! Fap! Fap!" is not [[ADateWithRosiePalms what]] the character entering the scene (and you) thought. It was [[spoiler:a perfectly innocent snowball fight with the snowballs hitting the house wall.]]
* Seen infrequently in ''Webcomic/CobwebAndStripes'', such as "BEEEED!" near the end of chapter 14.
* [[http://www.dorktower.com/2012/12/04/fake-geek-girl-dork-tower-04-12-12/ This]] ''Webcomic/DorkTower'' strip has Unsound Effects in every panel except the last one.



* ''Webcomic/GuildedAge'':
** After [[spoiler:Best's fight with Byron]], the "sound effect" for Frigg's shrug was "INDIFFERENCE".
** Earlier, after Bandit proves Byron right: "'''SMUG'''"
** Syr'Nj's smile, after she and her cohorts receive a diplomatic appointment, has the "sound effect" of "KA-PEACE!"
* ''Webcomic/TheWhiteboard'': On [[http://the-whiteboard.com/autotwb2820.html this page]], Cara's vintage Volkswagen makes a beetlebeetlebeetle noise. Given the car in question, it's not a big stretch.
* Many in ''Webcomic/BoyAndDog'', including "cake", "[[AssShove rectum]]", "standing unassisted", "[[GroinAttack nuts]]", "nap", and "fur".
* ''Webcomic/{{Chainsawsuit}}'': [[http://chainsawsuit.com/comic/2011/05/12/fine-old-destination/ "Accident".]]

** The strip coined the word "[[http://bobadventures.comicgenesis.com/d/20130112.html Ninj!]]" as the official Sound of Silence, representing the silence produced by a ninja. So, an exploding spaceship can now have the sound effect "NINJ!" in big block letters.
