Saying that a trope happens a lot in a particular work or author's work without specifying the details are useless as examples.

* Matt Fraction's 2011 ''[[ComicBook/TheDefenders Defenders]]'' series ended with Comicbook/DoctorStrange altering the past so that the team never formed in the first place. (They had made a fatal mistake in their very first mission, which would have resolved itself without their help anyway).

* ''ComicBook/OneMoreDay'' and ''ComicBook/OneMomentInTime'' play this frustratingly straight. In ''One More Day'', Franchise/SpiderMan [[DealWithTheDevil is given the option of getting a redo from Mephisto]], to prevent his Aunt from getting shot. In exchange, Peter has to trade his marriage. Simple enough right? But then, ''One Moment in Time'' revealed that Mephisto changed absolutely nothing by taking Peter and Mary Jane's marriage. History still plays out exactly the same. The only reason that his Aunt comes back to life is that in this new reality, Peter spirited May back to life instead of wasting time making the deal with Mephisto. In other words, May could have come back to life in the original reality if he had just spent more time with her.
