!!Other Comics
* ''ComicBook/JohnnyTheHomicidalManiac'':
** Jhonen Vasquez seems to have an accidental habit of making these. His first creation Johnny C has an '''insane''' amount of fangirls who claim that he's [[TheWoobie just misunderstood and lonely]]. It's true: most of Nny's prominent victims are {{asshole|Victim}}s, the world is decidedly {{Crapsack|World}}, and he ''does'' get a few PetTheDog moments (notably with Squee). Yet this overlooks that Johnny is schizophrenic, psychotic, sociopathic, and AxCrazy; that he killed an entire restaurant full of people because someone said he "looked wacky"; he has entire torture chambers in his TortureCellar that contain who-knows-how-many people; he tried to ''murder the one girl who really liked him'' and drove her to become a recluse and hide in her apartment almost 24/7 out of paranoia; and he has killed numerous people for various insane reasons.
** To get into even weirder territory, one-shot character [[LoonyFan Jimmy]] has a surprising number of fans who adore him (and some [[HoYay pair him up with Nny]]). They ignore that Jimmy killed people to [[InLoveWithYourCarnage imitate Johnny's "murderous style"]] and to get his attention. Not only that, but he was the person who brutally raped and killed a cheerleader, which crime Johnny was accused of in an earlier issue. And there's also Johnny's distaste for Jimmy and [[EvenEvilHasStandards what he's done]]:
---> "You fucking idiot!! Admire me?!! You shit!!! [[CardCarryingVillain I'm the villain]] in this fucking story!"
* ''ComicBook/LenoreTheCuteLittleDeadGirl'':
** Ragamuffin gets this treatment from fangirls who claim that he's ''so cute'' when he's a rag doll and that he is ''[[LooksLikeCesare hot]]'' when he's in his human-vampire form. The first animated episode in which he appears features him eating a girl alive. Probably the HeelFaceTurn he does for Lenore convinced the fans to consider him one of the most likeable characters in the comics.
** Imagine you have a teddy bear or a cute plushie that you carry around all day. Now, what if that plushie has a life on its own, and it's a mysterious young guy who protects you from bad things? What if that guy is a [[TallDarkAndHandsome good-looking vampire]]? For some, this may be terrifying; for [[FanGirl others]], this is pure fetish fuel.
* ''Comicbook/{{Miracleman}}'': [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] with the "Bateses", a subculture that identifies itself with the supervillain Kid Miracleman/Johnny Bates. This idolization occurs after Bates personally murders most of London and the surrounding countryside in grotesque and grisly fashion. We're talking grade-A horrific here, easily. This is likely a parody of real-life skinheads and Neo-Nazis, who became popular in Britain and greater Europe a generation or so after WWII.
* ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'':
** ''ComicBook/SonicTheHedgehogArchieComics'': Since Anti-Sonic became Scourge, he's been getting plenty of this. Fans are now hitching onto the shades and leather jacket and saying all he needs is a bit of love, despite the comic not even ''trying'' to hide the fact that he's a remorseless womaniser who once tried to beat an unconscious old echidna to death with a rock. He'll take your lovin', and that of every other girl in the line. And he's got even less chance of changing than Shadow, thanks to having arrogance that is cranked up.
** This trope is very apparent with ''ComicBook/SonicTheComic'' fans. Super Sonic is the most popular character outside of the more hardcore fandom, despite it repeatedly being shown he's a sadistic, sociopathic, and arrogant OmnicidalManiac. Admittedly the comic shows he's not so bad when he loses his memory or stops using his powers - in fact he's a bit of a loser. But it seems that his default action upon using his powers in any way is to try and destroy the planet with them.
* ''Comicbook/TheWalkingDead'': Second long-running main villain Negan is arguably the comic's most loved character mostly driven simply by his [[MagnificentBastard charisma and intelligence]]. It doesn't take long on a website dedicated to the comics side of the franchise to spot numerous fans of Negan, even if the character's introduction already sees him [[spoiler:brutally murdering fan-favorite Glenn, a character that has been with the readers since the very beginning of the series]].
