Agreed, this one's got a lot of problems.
I'm not sure this is the best example, but this◊ is a screenshot I took in City Of Heroes when I was amused at the mass panic that broke out over the scuffle between my hero and a nameless enemy scientist mook.

Not sure who the guy's supposed to be fighting, there. Looks more like chaos.
Not fond of the style, but it's still an improvement over the current.
3 does the job, but I don't like it either. Let's look for more. Either way, pull the current. It's impossible to tell who's saying "UNH!"
Image Source. Please update whenever an image is changed.Well, who's saying "unh" isn't really important.
I mean, that's supposed to be the bystander, but it's not made clear who that is. It could be a character with the little context given.
Image Source. Please update whenever an image is changed.I'm pretty sure the Unh is from the fighting we can't see, that the bystanders are gaping at.
Well, there's the yuppie couple◊ from Gargoyles, who were Those Two Guys as applied to this trope and background characters.
That more strongly resembles Taken for Granite.
These two may literally be more bark than bite, but they are no less tenacious than everyone else.Clock is set.

14 doesn't work well either; everyone looks like they're running from the shooters.

Re-clocking; any other votes to pull the current, regardless of replacement?
Yes.
Check out my fanfiction!Yes.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!I've removed the image.

No, seriously? The picture is incredibly confusing with its weird cropping, and does a very poor job of illustrating the trope. I don't have a suggestion for a replacement, but nothing is better.
