9	* ''Adventurers!'' lampshaded this (along with a [[BagOfHolding similar trope]]) once or twice. The below quote was given after one of Eternion's lackeys pulled a sword from behind his back that is taller then him.
10	-->'''Eternion''': This planet makes storage a snap.
11	* ''Webcomic/TheAdventuresOfDrMcNinja'': Doctor [=McNinja=] makes frequent use of a large grappling hook, but it is never seen on his person except when he throws it. The same applies for Sean when a grappling hook pops out of his hand [[spoiler:(in the crapsack future, where he's become a "technomage" with a power glove)]].
12	* ''Webcomic/AwfulHospital'': Fern's HAMMERSPACE-brand Disappearing/Reappearing Compartmentalized [[LampshadeHanging Collector's Tote]].
13	-->When you look inside, you perceive ten compartments of infinite size occupying the same space simultaneously ... it sort of tickles a little.
14	* In ''Webcomic/BratHalla'', Sif produces a war god's giant club [[http://brat-halla.com/comic/258-mjollnir-madness-save-it-for-later/ from her purse]] when she thinks another woman is flirting with her unrequited crush.
15	* Since ''Webcomic/Collar6'' is intentionally and explicitly kinky, what the girls produce from Hammerspace is [[http://collar6.tumblr.com/post/138499847345 paddles]] to punish annoying men.
16	* [[http://www.daisyowl.com/comic/2008-12-12 This]] ''Webcomic/DaisyOwl'' comic lampshades it. "I am kind of alarmed at how quickly you just produced that pie."
17	* Lampshaded with hilarity in [[http://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?p=984 this]] strip of ''Webcomic/DMOfTheRings''. "You don't have a backpack. What you have there is an invisible leather TARDIS."
18	%%* [[http://www.dominic-deegan.com/view.php?date=2008-02-21 This]] ''Webcomic/DominicDeegan'' strip, brought to you by the RuleOfCool.
19	%%* Eddie from ''Webcomic/EmergencyExit'' makes good use of hammerspace on a regular basis.
20	* Used by [[http://www.webcomicsnation.com/eddurd/everydayheroes/series.php?view=single&ID=73819 Carrie]] in ''Webcomic/EverydayHeroes'', where she apparently hides her hammer in her ginormous head of PrehensileHair.
21	** And subverted [[http://www.webcomicsnation.com/eddurd/everydayheroes/series.php?view=single&ID=106598 here]], where young superhero Summer explains that girls with super-strength aren't allowed to use hammers, since they might cause actual damage instead of comic damage. Instead, she has an alternate weapon: a flyswatter, which she uses to swat the offending young man on his [[GroinAttack fly]].
22	%%* ''Webcomic/ExterminatusNow'' [[http://exterminatusnow.co.uk/2011-01-09/comic/non-storyline/randoms/submitted-for-peer-review/ brainstorms about it.]]
23	%%* Apparently plot-relevant in [[http://www.flipsidecomics.com/comic.php?i=728 this]] ''Webcomic/{{Flipside}}'' strip.
24	* In ''[[http://www.flyingmanandfriends.com Flying Man and Friends]]'', Mr. Stinky is able to produce (among other things) [[http://www.flyingmanandfriends.com/?p=311 a gun]] out of nowhere, despite not wearing clothes or having a place to store anything.
25	* ''Webcomic/GirlsInSpace'': A "strippotamus" produces a gun from nowhere in [[http://www.girlsinspace.co.uk/2010/07/15/push-the-button-page-21/ this]] strip.
26	* Often used in ''Webcomic/{{Girly}}'' where Winter pulls out giant dildos and bazookas out of nothing, while Otra pulls out spaceships and her own armor with accommodating sword just like that. And one of their adversaries use the {{hammerspace}} [[HoistByHisOwnPetard against them]] while referencing to this very trope. [[http://girlyyy.com/go/636 While using a hammer.]]
27	* ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'': Although this example might be better described as HyperspaceMallet, it deserves a spot here, if for no other reason than it formerly provided the trope image. The comic has [[http://egscomics.com/?date=2002-01-25 this comic]] where the HyperspaceMallet is pulled out of {{Hammerspace}}, and [[http://egscomics.com/?date=2002-01-26 this one]] where a scientist explains where the mallet came from. Susan can turn realspace into her own personal Hammerspace thanks to magic powers and, later on when she finds she can't summon the hammer, they find that [[spoiler:the immortal who created the relic that allows girls to summon the hammer is about to reincarnate himself, undoing the magic]].
28	* ''Webcomic/GrimTalesFromDownBelow'': Hammerspace plays a major role in the appearance of objects such as: An iron engraved with "STFU" on the side, a kettle with the word "FAG" on it in a similar vein, a ball gag, a cherry, a knife, a spontaneously changing outfit, and a paintball gun. It's not as kinky as it sounds.
29	* ''Webcomic/GrrlPower'': One of Dabbler's many abilities. [[http://www.grrlpowercomic.com/archives/1062 Sydney really wants this power too]]. It's actually her lab (at an undisclosed location). She has a teleport in her artificial arm, which warps in what she needs.
30	* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'': Characters store items in a "Sylladex". These are basically video game inventories where stored items essentially cease existing as physical objects until called upon, but they usually have [[InventoryManagementPuzzle limits on what order and under what circumstances items can be retrieved in]].
31	* In ''[[http://www.intrepidgirlbot.com/2009/05/22/typical-showdown/ The Intrepid Girlbot]]'', there's a "typical showdown" between hammerspace-capable robotic pets. No hammers shown, but they're armored too much for a hammer to do anything, anyway.
32	* Justified in ''Webcomic/KeychainOfCreation'': in the RPGMechanicsVerse of ''TabletopGame/{{Exalted}}'', it's quite simple to learn how to stash a few objects Outside and retrieve them at a moment's notice. {{Lampshade\|Hanging}}d when Marena [[https://keychain.patternspider.net/archive/koc0069.html forgets]] precisely ''how much'' her hammerspace can hold.
33	* Once used with a literal hammer by Sheila in ''Webcomic/KidRadd''.
34	%%* ''Webcomic/LivingWithInsanity'' presents [[http://www.livingwithinsanity.com/comic/006-hammer-time/ Hammertime]].
35	* ''Webcomic/TheMansionOfE'' features the Hammerspace Company who deals in extra-dimensional storage.
36	* In ''Webcomic/{{Narbonic}}'', [[http://www.webcomicsnation.com/shaenongarrity/narbonic/series.php?view=archive&chapter=13021#strip2 a hammer suddenly appears, and is met with the stock question and answer]].
37	** Also, Dave's cigarettes come from hammerspace. At one point [[spoiler:before Dave didn't start smoking, Helen realized she was turning into Dave when a cigarette popped]].
38	* Half the equipment owned by ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'' (especially V's familiar) just appears out of nowhere. In the case of the familiar, this was to represent the way actual ''[=DnD=]'' players tend to forget their familiars even exist; on the other hand, Elan producing the Girdle of Femininity/Masculinity leaves far more questions.
39	** Lampshaded when Haley and Roy switch weapons, and he fires a single arrow (which was already nocked when he got it) from her bow - then realizes that he has no idea where she keeps the rest of her ammunition (she is never seen wearing a quiver).
40	** Similarly to familiars, the paladins of Azure City keep their mounts in pokeballs, a joke on the fact that the city is modeled after Japanese culture.
41	* In ''Webcomic/OzyAndMillie'', Ozy goes out in a cold snap before his winter coat comes in--the result is that it comes in ''all at once'', leaving him extremely fluffy. Millie takes advantage of this to hide things in him, up to and including a piano.
42	* ''A Pinkish Blue'': [[http://xninjared.deviantart.com/art/Happy-Birthday-APinkishBlue-157267248 In this Comic]] you expected the boy to draw out a proposal ring, which would at least kinda make sense, but then he draws out a present bigger then his head...
43	* Justified in ''Webcomic/PowerOfEther'' as the main characters all have portable pouches that can, quote, hold about 1 cubic meter's worth of stuff inside. However, they apparently damage organic material severely. (Note, this quote is from the semi-retconned first chapter, but it still applies)
44	-->'''[[http://www.powerofether.com/archive/16-comic-1-13 Dax:]]''' ''Your hands will be okay for a few minutes, but put your head in and you'll quickly go blind.''
45	* In ''Webcomic/RealmOfOwls'', Aviatar's bags hold all [[https://realmofowls.com/comics/liberator-versus-collector the weapons and items he needs]].
46	* In ''Roses and Thorns'', scientist Joseph Umbra renamed hammerspace as [[http://rnt.kuiki.net/?page=comic;series=1;issue=9 "Umbral Science"]], after gaining a monopoly on the technology used to access it.
47	* In ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance'', despite wearing no clothes ''whatsoever'', Bun-bun is always able to produce his switchblade at a moment's notice.
48	** Gwynn likes to keep a baseball bat in impossibly small places like a cookie jar or her purse in case she needs to beat up Torg or Riff for being stupid.
49	** Also Bun-bun's gun. Lampshaded when he was talking to Oasis (the gymnastic assassin).
50	--->'''Bun-bun''': You know what, toots? You keep throwing your knives and stars at me, and I just gotta ask. ''(Pulls a gun out of nowhere.)'' '''Where do you keep all your weapons hidden?'''
51	* Used frequently and by name by the weapon-happy Petra of Okashina Okashi (''Webcomic/StrangeCandy''). She allows the other characters to store things there, mostly clothes, but she seems to be the only one of them who can access it.
52	* In ''WebComic/YokokasQuest'', Misha has access to a "storage dimension", and is shown keeping a bag and a small parcel there (the bag itself is presumably a normal bag and not a BagOfHolding. Suggested to be a common ability, by Misha stating that {{familiar}}s are expected to do use this to carry their master's belongings, and her presumption that Yfa can also do this (he can't). Clothing seems to also go into hammerspace during most [[{{Animorphism}} shapeshifting]].
53	* In ''Webcomic/ZackJack'', CuteWitch Alex's FlyingBroomstick disappears whenever she isn't using it.
