151!!Other Examples
152
153* In ''ComicBook/SmallFavors'' #7, Annie and Nibbil hug outside Annie's house. Little hearts appear around them, and Annie picks one out of the air and hands it to Nibbil, telling her it's for her. It is the ''cutest'', ''sweetest'' thing ever. [[http://i36.tinypic.com/24vvebp.jpg Go look.]]
154* The ending to at least 4 of Doug Tennapel's graphic novels.
155** The best example may be "Tommysaurus Rex". Ely's pet dinosaur has been mortally wounded while saving the local bully from a fire. As it lies dying, the scariest events of its life flash before its eyes. Then, it hears Ely's voice talking soothingly and lovingly to it. It imagines that Ely is standing there with it during these scary moments and is making everything all better. It dies feeling loved and happy. What happens afterward between Ely, the Bully, and the Bully's dog could also qualify as a Crowning Moment.
156* ''ComicBook/{{Zot}}'', issue no. #33. Throughout the issue, Jenny's friend Terry has been struggling to come to terms with her sexuality and gradual realization that she's a lesbian, especially in light of her friend Pam (whom she comes to realize she has a crush on) having outed herself to the school and being ostracized (by Terry among others) as a result. On the last page, Pam tries to break the ice with Terry, who walks past her. DownerEnding... until you read past the letters pages, to a final page where Terry changes her mind, yells "Pam, WAIT!" down the corridor and runs after her, with the last panel being Terry in front of Pam with a sheepish smile on her face saying "Hi!"
157* In Comicbook/{{Slaine}}: The Book of Invasions, Sláine finally pays his (incredibly greedy) Dwarf servant Ukko, and tells him to "start a new life in a new land". But Ukko doesn't want to go, and begs Sláine to allow him to help fight the Fomorian Sea Demon Moloch. Sláine says that it's something he must to himself, and then, after years of physically and mentally abusing Ukko to the point of torture just because he felt like it, Sláine comes out with this:
158-->'''Ukko''': But we will meet again one day, right? In some bar somewhere? And we'll do it all again, right? Just you and me, Sláine? Just like in the old days?\
159'''Sláine''': Of course we will, Ukko. Of course. Goodbye, my friend.
160** Ukko's reaction makes it all the more heartwarming.
161-->'''Ukko''': He...he called me his...friend! His ''friend''!
162* ''ComicBook/AmeliaRules'' is full of heartwarming moments, but the final defeat of The Shadowman in ''Superheroes'' is truly the crowning one.
163--> "I am a BRAVE GIRL. My HOME is ALWAYS NEAR! And YOU... ARE '''INSIGNIFICANT'''!"
164** Amelia's friend Trish suffers from a life-threatening ventricular septal defect. She copes with her fear of death by writing a fantasy story called "The Adventures of Princess Trishara", where she and her friends fight against the evil Shadowman. In the end Trish and her parents move to California where she is to receive surgery. Amelia does not hear from her again, but in a flash forward we see the teenaged Amelia receive a package with the conclusion of "The Adventures of Princess Trishara", where Trishara finally destroys The Shadowman using the above words that refer to their time together.
165* Belgian cartoonist Foerster usually wrote and drew horror stories with a very, very dark humor, but there's one story of his that actually ends tenderly. A man has a boy, who immediately gets disliked by his mother who considers him a freak. As time passes by, everybody around the man and the boy finds the kid strange and scorn him. And to be fair, they have some reasons as the kid starts to lose his skin, eventually becoming a walking skeleton, and as everything around him withers and gets sick. His mother eventually commits suicide, as she's so disgusted by her son that she can't bear the idea she gave birth to him. But the man continues to raise him and to love him as if he was just a normal boy. As the man and the boy are finally so despised by everyone that they're thrown on the roads, the Grim Reaper himself appears and reveals that he's the boy's biological father, and that he'll make the boy his heir. The man tries to oppose this, but the Reaper replies by telling him he'll be his last job, and by giving him a heart attack... But the boy then kills the Reaper with his scythe, thus saving his adoptive father. And then, this dialogue occurs :
166-->'''The man''' : Why did you do this ?! He was your father !
167-->'''The boy''' : He may have been my father... But you're my daddy. And for this, you deserve to live a little longer.
168* From ''Webcomic/DorkTower'', the goodbye chat between Gilly and her brother Walden as she prepares to leave for London.
169-->'''Walden:''' "Can't say I blame you. There's not much keeping anyone here... guy-wise, anyway."
170-->'''Gilly:''' "Oh, I dunno. There's this one fella who's kinda cool. Sometimes he lets his anger get the better of him, and he's not having the easiest time of it at the moment. But I think he's pretty special. An' anyway, he's got a big heart, he's smart and funny and ''totally'' underappreciated."
171-->'''Walden:''' "Do I know this loser?"
172-->'''Gilly:''' "Probably. He's my big brother. And one day I hope I find a guy kinda like him."
173-->''(Beat. Hug.)''
174-->'''Gilly:''' "Well, except maybe for [[StraightGay the gay part]], of course."
175-->'''Walden:''' "Well, duh!"
176* ''ComicBook/CastleWaiting'': towards the end of book 2, the palace cat teaches Pindar to purr. "Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr." Cue the "Awwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!" squeeing.
177* ''ComicBook/JasonVsLeatherface'', when Jason Voorhees found a kindred spirit in Leatherface, and steps up to defend him when his family abuses him. Who knew two bloodthirsty merciless psychopathic killers meeting would fit this trope?
178* A story arc in ''ComicBook/TheFabulousFurryFreakBrothers'' has Freewheelin' Franklin offering to help a friendly redneck sell a trailerful of marijuana in UsefulNotes/SanFrancisco. He makes deals with all his acquaintances, hoping to sell at top price, but has to bargain more and more each time. He does end up making a bit for himself with each sale, and is pleased to pocket over $6000. Then, he passes by a poor kid who's begging for food money, and without a second thought gives him a thousand-dollar bill.
179* A Scandinavian comic book series, ''Agent Annorlunda'' (Agent Different, the original title is an AlliterativeTitle in Swedish) has this in spades in the ending of the story arc ''Mozarts Marionettes''. The plot revolves around two marionette puppets supposedly passed down from Mozart himself, which are revealed to contain sheets of music inside. They aren't an unpublished symphony, but actually a secret cipher that leads to a treasure Mozart had hidden away before his death. In the end the heroes, pursued by the crimelord BigBad of the arc, finally uncover the treasure and are forced at gunpoint to open it... only to find it empty. Until they notice a melody seemingly coming out of nowhere. The melody is Mozart's last gift to the world, something that isn't tangible and cant be owned by anyone, but will still travel the world forevermore, lifting the spirits of everyone who hears it, even if they don't know why. Even as the notes fade overtime, it will always be there.
