9* ''Webcomic/EightBitTheater'':
10** Black Mage. He's kinda the anti-WhiteMage. He views everyone around him as a target, defaults to murder as a means of social interaction and has been known to hurl himself long distances by setting off a FantasticNuke inches from his own face - not as a means of transport, just because he's that eager to kill. At one point we learn that he prefers to urinate on dying people (although an anthill will do, in a pinch) because it just feels like he's wasting his time if ''someone'' isn't being hurt.
11** Berserker is ''usually'' a perfectly sane, polite, downright classy fellow. Then he goes berserk.
12** Kary, the Fiend of Fire, is so willing to follow whatever sadistic whim pops into her head that [[MookDepletion she ends up wiping out most of her own minions]] before the Light Warriors even get there.
13* [[http://liliy.net/wam/cast/cast-galen/ Galen]] from ''Webcomic/TheAdventuresOfWiglafAndMordred''. Her favorite "patients" seem to be her fellow teammates (or her daughters teammates, much to her daughters annoyance).
14* ''Webcomic/AnsemRetort'':
15** Axel seems to go out of his way to inflict grievous bodily harm on his "friends", and generally murders anyone who happens to exist anywhere within a hundred mile radius of himself.
16--->'''Namine:''' You couldn't go 10 seconds of diplomatic immunity before murdering someone?!\
17'''Axel:''' I wasn't even listening to you. I just wanted to murder a dude.
18** Larxene is, arguably, even crazier having destroyed Disney Land and everyone/thing inside it just because she wanted funnel cake.
19* WebComic/AxeCop is pretty violent and armed with an Axe most of the time, but this is usually just bad news if you are a bad guy. However in [[http://axecop.com/index.php/acask/read/ask_axe_cop_50/ this strip]] he goes pretty Ax Crazy after the [[BerserkButton wrong candles are put on his cake]] and kills indiscriminately.
20* ''Webcomic/ABrokenWinter'' introduces us very early on to Kuroda's wife, who killed their son (according to WordOfGod) as a protest against killing children. In their words, "Logic at its finest". She also killed the family dog and tried to kill her husband too.
21* [[MeaningfulName Chelsea Grinn]] from ''Webcomic/{{Chimneyspeak}}'' has been on a ten year long bloody carnage across the world all because [[DisproportionateRetribution she got bumped into and got a small scar on her nose.]]
22%%* Butch from ''Webcomic/ChoppingBlock''.
23* In ''Webcomic/CommanderKitty'', [[BigBad Zenith]] does ''not'' take it well to learn that {{Ridiculously Human Robot}}s and MixAndMatchCritters [[http://www.commanderkitty.com/2011/08/28/process-of-elimination/ are incapable of having children together]].
24--> If I'm not perfect ''now'', I can always be the most perfect thing ''[[OmnicidalManiac left alive]]''.
25* ''Webcomic/TheContinentals'': The escaped mental patient known as The Mangler, the sinister and psychotic Mr. Qwist (hired man of the equally bent Dr. Daniel Abbeline).
26* In ''Webcomic/DevilBear'', [[http://www.thedevilbear.com/?p=21 Winnie the Pimp]] is brought back to life by well meaning friends but he CameBackWrong.
27* ''Webcomic/{{Drowtales}}'':
28** Il'haress Kharla'ggen Vloz'rezz is the personification off Ax Crazy. And considering that the [[ManBehindTheMan Woman Behind The Woman]] that was the only thing capable of keeping her in check and from going on an unstoppable killing spree [[DroppedABridgeOnHim was beheaded in a recent chapter]], she will most likely become further Ax Crazy still as the story progresses. Or, considering that it was this woman who originally drove her Ax Crazy, it's within the realm of possibility that she might calm down to just plain crazy.
29** Snadhya'rune is a very well-hidden version of this, as she projects the image of being very self-controlled if very sadistic. Right up to the point where she's stabbed in the back and sees her own blood. [[UnstoppableRage Whereupon she proceeds to completely flip her shit and tries to murder everyone present in a fit of psychotic rage.]] To say it puts a dent in her ReasonableAuthorityFigure image during the peace talks is quite the {{Understatement}}.
30* In ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', Damien killed everyone in the lab Grace was born in, wanted to massacre Earth's population, and was getting ready to kill Grace's friends before [[UnstoppableRage she lost her temper]].
31* ''Webcomic/EnnuiGo'': Asher, Izzy's first artist. Hates women and people in general [[spoiler: and tries to kill Izzy. Twice]].
32* Lothar Hex from ''Webcomic/ExterminatusNow'' is psychopathic enough that he regularly attempts to cause harm to next door's dog for no reason, but in order to REALLY get him riled up, all you have to do is ruin his hat. At which point, don't expect too many of your limbs to still be attached.
33* Nyarai from ''Webcomic/FurryFightChronicles'' is the most violent of the four protagonists thanks to her CombatSadomasochist fighting style in Part 2.
34* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'':
35** Bangladesh [=DuPree=]. Rather indicative is that she regularly counts how many ways she can spell [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20090202#.VTmckSFViko "eviscerate."]] Although Baron Wulfenbach and his son Gilgamesh have some [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070718 control]] over her... usually.
36--->'''Klaus''': [=DuPree=]. When I say the words ''Alive and Unharmed'' -- do ''any'' neurons actually ''fire'' in that brain of yours?\
37'''Bang''': Um--No Sir!\
38'''Klaus''': I thought not.
39** Really, Othar and any of the Jägers fit this trope to the letter. The Jägers at least have an excuse, though, being bioengineered supersoldiers selected for loyalty and ferocity, not brains.
40** Truly taking the cake, though, is Castle Heterodyne's AI. Its selective memory turns the most innocuous commands into a massacre. Really doesn't help that it was built and programmed by AxCrazy EvilOverlord MadScientist types, and it's gone even more nuts due to being ''broken'', so it's almost impossible to tell which particular bits of AxCrazy are bugs and which are features. This is how it remembers its first conversation with Agatha:
41--->'''Castle''': How may I serve you?\
42'''Agatha''': Oh goody! Who can you ''kill'' for me?[[note]]She asked about its defensive weapons.[[/note]]\
43'''Castle''': I can kill things in the sky.\
44'''Agatha''': Yay! Do that! Kill ''everything'' in the sky![[note]]She ordered the airspace cleared of intruders.[[/note]]
45* Doh Gyeom [[spoiler:while [[GollumMadeMeDoIt under the influence]] of [[SplitPersonality his alter-ego]]]] from ''Webcomic/{{Gosu}}'' happily slaughters through droves of people to satiate his [[BloodKnight bloodlust]]. The same issue also occurred for Gyeom's late older brother, Doh Gyeol.
46%%* Mal from ''Webcomic/HeadTrip''.
47* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'':
48** [[spoiler:Gamzee]] singlehandedly turned the Troll's side of the story into a SlasherMovie when he goes off the deep end. [[spoiler:Karkat eventually [[ThePowerOfFriendship manages to hug the crazy out of him]] though.]]
49** Also, [[spoiler: Eridan]] goes off the [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope deep end]] too, murdering two of his friends in cold blood and single-handedly destroying any hope of his species long-term survival.
50** Caliborn. He is entertained by death and wants to kill everyone, especially his sister Calliope.
51** Jack Noir. At one point, he's stuck in jail with nothing but a pumpkin full of knives. He then proceeds to murder everyone around him, even when he's trying to keep at least one of them alive to open his cell.
52** Meenah, also. To the point where she greets people by trying to kill them, and blew up herself and all her friends, as well.
53* Robbie from ''Webcomic/JackJackAntonucci'' is usually a [[TheStoic Stoic]] DeadpanSnarker, but when get's a [[GunNut Gun]] pr [[TriggerHappy any weapon]] for that mater he gets a little crazy and murderous.
54%%* Rowasu of ''Webcomic/{{Juathuur}}''. And when he is lucid, he is even scarier.
55* ''Webcomic/KillSixBillionDemons'':
56** The Order of the Belligerent Knights are an organization of insane psychopaths and berserkers with such creeds as "Let's cut God to see if he bleeds!" and "If it has a pulse, take its skull!" Unfortunately, they are also some of the most powerful individuals in Creation, and that's really saying something.
57** Jagganoth is one of the seven Demiurges who rule all of Creation. He was originally an angry and powerful man who conquered one-seventh of the multiverse with nothing but his own might, but then he left to try and find a purpose. He found one and returned as a literally invincible juggernaut immune to any and all harm. He is as strong as the other six Demiurges put together, and the only thing keeping universal war from reigniting is their fear of him. And just for extra fun, when the Belligerent Knights encountered him, they tried to kill him and failed. They promptly decided that the only logical conclusion was to worship him. So now the most dangerous thing in all Creation has the service of the most dangerous Knights in all Creation.
58* Rocky and Freckle in ''Webcomic/{{Lackadaisy}}'' are heroi-- um, ''[[VillainProtagonist protagonist]]'' examples. While Rocky is friendly and upbeat and at worst a JerkWithAHeartOfGold, and Freckle is something of a ShrinkingViolet, put either of them in a stressful situation and mayhem ensues as Rocky turns into an unhinged PyroManiac and Freckle becomes a gun-toting berserker. Rocky, in particular, has been getting worse following a severe head injury.
59* Kamekaze Kate is a car racing Ax Crazy in ''Webcomic/{{Misfile}}''. At first, anyway- after she was freed from her sister's influence she got a lot better. And her race with Ash ended in a traditional DefeatMeansFriendship moment, [[spoiler:that is Ash's defeat by Kate.]]
60* ''Webcomic/MyDeepestSecret'': Elios is a very downplayed example. While he never goes out of control or visibly insane, it does tell you something when his first reaction to a cat peeing on his girlfriend’s shoe is to kill it. Also shown when he attacks Brian. Judging by his level of preparedness, he was already planning to attack him before he tried to rape Emma, which means the attack was likely not just because of that but out of jealousy.
61%%* Mel Kelly from ''Webcomic/{{Narbonic}}''. Very.
62%%* Red of ''Webcomic/NoRestForTheWicked'', even if she is one of the protagonists.
63%%* [[http://notalwaysright-notalwaysreal.webcomic.ws/comics/3/ Here]] [[http://notalwaysright-notalwaysreal.webcomic.ws/comics/4/ are]] [[http://notalwaysright-notalwaysreal.webcomic.ws/comics/12/ a]] [[http://notalwaysright-notalwaysreal.webcomic.ws/comics/16/ few]] [[http://notalwaysright-notalwaysreal.webcomic.ws/comics/18/ examples]] from ''Webcomic/NotAlwaysRightNotAlwaysReal''.
64%%* ''Webcomic/OlympusOverdrive'': Ares.
65* ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'':
66** Belkar Bitterleaf, described as "a Chaotic Evil halfling who is constantly trying to murder anyone who gets in his way! Or looks like they may possibly be thinking about getting anywhere sort of near his way at some unspecified future point, just to be sure."
67--->"I AM A SEXY SHOELESS GOD OF WAR!!!"\
68"Yes, run, my little chunks of XP!"
69** The BigBad, Xykon, who will (and has) kill anyone, for any reason, usually [[ForTheEvulz on a whim]].
70* The Demi in ''Webcomic/TheOverture'' are an entire race of unstable psychopathic killers but none so much as Sophie. A [[CuteAndPsycho cute, sweet, little girl]] who tortures children in order to [[LovesTheSoundOfScreaming hear their screams]].
71* Cousin Dougal from ''Webcomic/PlatinumGrit'', a psychopathic immortal Scotsman who lives to stab.
72* ''Webcomic/Project0'': Noor, just sending her out into the field gives even her teammates a scare.
73* The supervillain Pluton from ''Webcomic/{{Sidekicks}}''. In most of his appearances he's seen with an [[SlasherSmile unnerving smile]] on his face and he quite clearly takes pleasure in brutalising and killing people. Just [[http://mangafox.me/manga/sidekicks/v01/c011/51.html look at his face]] as he [[WouldHurtAChild kills this poor girl]].
74* Jekkel from ''Webcomic/SilverBulletNights''. Despite his [[PrettyBoy slender, almost androgynous looks]], Jekkel is a force of nature when he snaps or even when he's just set on someone by his girlfriend. He doesn't care about his own safety - all he cares about is killing the opponent at all costs. Of course, it helps that Jekkel is a nearly-immortal vampire with a HealingFactor.
75* ''Webcomic/SlightlyDamned'':
76** Even by demons' standards, Azurai is a violent, temperamental sadist who's just itching for a reason, ''any'' reason, to bathe his claws in someone's blood.
77** Lazui becomes this after her first battle against Kieri, if she wasn't already before. On her way to St. Curtis, she murders an innocent person for his water and ''laughs''. And she only gets ''worse'' from there.
78** Moonshade is a PsychoKnifeNut extraordinaire who goes LaughingMad when [[spoiler: St. Curtis burns,]] has murdered at ''least'' two [[spoiler: [[PhysicalGod Guardians]]]] thus far, and [[spoiler: [[OffingTheOffspring murdered his daughter, Rhea,]] so no one else of Moku's lineage will challenge him.]] He ponders [[spoiler: killing her ''again'']] with the seriousness of deciding what to eat for breakfast in the morning. Some of the worst '''demons''' are more rational and empathetic than him.
79* Oasis moves in and out of this in ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance''. Her mental state is in tatters, and each [[BackFromTheDead apparent resurrection]] shifts it. Even in her more lucid moments, though, she realizes how close she is to violent mayhem. And heaven help anyone nearby if she activates [[OverrideCommand Override B-1]].
80* ''Webcomic/{{SSDD}}'':
81** Norman Gates is a violent, sociopathic BombThrowingAnarchist who can barely go ten minutes without committing assault and/or vandalism. His future self from a timeline in which he turned into an anarchist DarkMessiah figure who led the conquest of a significant portion of the world takes these tendencies up a notch. Present-day Norman beats up chavs and sets fire to trash cans. Future Norman beats up entire ''countries'' and sets fire to ''continents''.
82** Norman's best friend and landlord Richard ''used'' to be even worse than Norman when they were both kids, making frequent use of a straight razor... and not for shaving. Unlike Norman, he actually grew out of it (although the police still consider him the scarier of the two).
83* ''Webcomic/SupernormalStep'' has [[HiddenAgendaVillain Mr. Kite]], who blends elements of Ax Crazy, TheMadHatter, and MagnificentBastard all at once.
84-->Mr. Kite: Whatever. Nothing else [[IncendiaryExponent left to burn]], I'm bored, let's get out of here.
85* ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod'': It is implied that the weapons of the [[EmpathicWeapon 13 Month Series]] cause this, since [[YamatoNadeshiko Eurasia Anne Jahad]] started to go on a random killing spree after receiving the Colorless December. It also applies to Anaak's Green April, which seems rather bloodthirsty. This is later confirmed to be the work of [[spoiler:the Ghost of the 13 Months, a female entity that made a deal with Jahad to drive the Princesses to hate each other via GrandTheftMe]].
86* Nina from ''Webcomic/VenusEnvy'' -- starts out as a SociopathicHero of sorts who constantly threatens / injures people and is played mostly for laughs. [[FromBadToWorse Then she]] [[spoiler: stabs the main character.]]
87* Wolf Keum from ''Webcomic/WeakHero''. He acts entirely on instinct, fights whenever he feels like it, and doesn't stop until his opponent is a bloody mess. Sometimes he doesn't even ''enjoy'' fighting, he just does it out of compulsion. His unpredictable violence has lead to him being known as the most psychopathic of the Union.
88* In ''Webcomic/YokokasQuest'', Hurricane is shown to be this [[spoiler:after Yokoka challenges her to a fight, which promptly becomes a CurbStompBattle]].
