* Black Belt from ''Webcomic/EightBitTheater''. Mostly [[WriterRevolt done out of spite by Clevinger]] after fans inundated the message boards with theories on how and/or why BB could be revived. The comic solving the issue was titled [[http://www.nuklearpower.com/2005/11/10/episode-622-now-shut-up/ Now Shut Up.]]
* The character Bush was killed near the end of ''Exploitation Now!'' She started off as a minor character but after CerebusSyndrome set became one of the two protagonists.
* ''{{Erfworld}}'' example: After Wanda gets the Arkenpliers and reveals its powers of 'decryption', Parson hopes that she can decrypt Bogroll, since he died in a HeroicSacrifice. This hope is quickly squashed when Wanda points out that his remains "were rather thoroughly obliterated."
* Angels and demons are told to not have any afterlife in ''SlightlyDamned''. WordOfGod says that the character in question was created completely from the dreamer's imagination, no BackFromTheDead involved.
* [[Webcomic/MegaTokyo Fred Gallagher]] [[WordOfGod confirmed]] the death of Tohya Miho in #1244, a DPD strip:
--> Yes, yes, Miho is no more, I know.
** [[LyingCreator He lied.]] [[HesJustHiding She was just hiding.]]
*** [[ThisIsUnforgivable Yurusenai.]]
* Freddy from ''{{Horndog}}'', although he later [[BackFromTheDead came back]] [[RiseFromYourGrave as a zombie]].
* Kairi was killed off in the first season of ''AnsemRetort''. WordOfGod says if she ever comes back to life, he's officially run out of ideas.
* Dave Kelly was very fond of this trope in his comics. In ''Purple Pussy'' he killed off Shelly Squirrel, and all the characters expected she'd come back since this was just a comic. She didn't. And in his other comic, ''Living In Grey Town'', he had so many important characters killed off willy-nilly that he added in a counter for every time a character died. By the end there were only a handful left.
* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' appears to be fond of this, though because of how many ways there are to come back, it remains to be seen just who all is gone for good. The trolls used to die with alarming frequency, and both the kids' and trolls' guardians are all officially dead.
** On the other hand, the fairly generous afterlife offered by the dream bubbles means that death is little more than a minor inconvenience. Though it still equates to putting them on a bus for all narrative purposes. It turns out, though, that [[spoiler:dream bubbles [[DeaderThanDead can be destroyed]]]].
* ''BittersweetCandyBowl'' has killed off several of the fancharaters. In particular, Carson is abandoned in the basement of an abandoned house after falling through the floor, his "friends" not caring enough to tell anyone what happened to him. Presumably, he starved to death. Kizuna's creator freaked out over the character's presence in the comic and asked the author to remove her, resulting in [[http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c54.1/p1.html this.]]
* In ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'', where as a general rule DeathIsCheap, Lord Shojo was attempted to be resurrected, but apparently he refused to come back (in ''DungeonsAndDragons'', resurrection spell only works if the subject is willing to come back). Similarly, Therkla said she wouldn't come back just before she died. Other characters were killed DeaderThanDead, such as Kubota. Miko is a special case: while there is no in-story proof, [[WordOfGod the author]] specifically said she won't come back.
** We can now add [[DarkChick Tsukiko]] to the list -- Redcloak just had her own wights kill her and eat her body, and no body means no resurrection.
*** And this came within strips of Redcloak having [[TotalPartyKill completely wiped out]] the Resistance (with the exception of Niu, who escapes).
* Lt. Col. Thomas Knowlton is killed off for real in ''TheDreamer''.
* Faye [=MacIntire=] from ''Webcomic'SomethingPositive'' dies quietly in her sleep after skipping a day off work to spend with her loving husband, Fred.
* Juu from ''Inhuman''. Word of God even stated in the comments for the page "JUU IS DEAD. DEAD. HE IS DEAD. CORPSE. AND HE IS NOT COMING BACK SO DON'T THREATEN TO BEAT ME UP OVER IT."
* Ethan in Ctrl+Alt+Del was KilledOffForReal.
* In ''Webcomic/CommanderKitty'', despite a mild HopeSpot involving Mr. Socks getting his brain removed and eventually put back in, [[http://www.commanderkitty.com/2013/03/24/tough-talk/ this is eventually revealed to be the fate of Nin Wah's old crew at the hands of Zenith]].
* The trope itself became a huge component of the last book of ''Webcomic/Sonichu''. After the author changed a fan character into a woman (Simonla Rosechu)and included her in the comic, he was demanded to remove her multiple times. Eventually the author was extorted into believing that he would be sued if he did not remove her and by that time the demand had been upgraded to killing her off on-panel. Simonla is blown up by an exploding toilet.

* ''SurvivalOfTheFittest'': Everybody except the winners of the game and Burton Harris, due to some BodyDouble antics in Burton's case. He ends up dying anyway. Also. some handlers are fond of putting fake 'Student deceased' messages in their posts when it seems as if the characters have died but are actually alive. (very uncommon though, and it's invariably revealed to not be the case). Also: Maxie Dasai To escape in V3
* ''WebVideo/DoctorHorriblesSingAlongBlog'': Penny. [[strike:Probably]] [[WordOfGod Definitely.]]
** Subverted or not? Too soon to tell; the clearest WordOfGod actually states that Joss and the cast and crew want FeliciaDay back for the sequel in any capacity; her revival as Penny is neither guaranteed nor ruled out.
* Donut is shot in the end of ''Machinima/RedVsBlue Recreation'' (Season 7) and is pronounced dead by Doc in the beginning of ''Revelation'' (Season 8).
** Still no confirmation on whether Tex, Sister, and Lopez are really gone for good, though.
*** In a bonus scene in ''Revelation'', Donut is revealed to be alive. [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome Tex has also returned.]]
** Tex in fact fell victim to this twice: the first Tex died along with Alpha-Church when the EMP surged, and the Tex that returned in ''Revelation'' was "forgotten" by Epsilon-Church at the end of Season 9 and erased from existence.
* In ''WebVideo/SuburbanKnights'', there's actually a funeral pyre ''and'' ReallyDeadMontage to let the viewer know that [[spoiler:Ma-Ti]] definitely will NOT be coming back.
** [[PatchAdams Dr. Bitch Spasms]], lampshaded in Nostalgia Critic's Top 11 Fuckups Part III.
-->'''Critic:''' I bet you thought he'd come in here and do something funny, but nope! I shot him! He's still lying there on my living room floor...I really should do something about that.
** And now, as the aftermath of ToBoldlyFlee, [[spoiler: the Critic himself....]] [[UnCancelled until now]].
