There's Atop a Mountain of Corpses which seems to fit the bill in some aspects, but would seem to require multiple bodies.

@Azorius 24 Thanks for tip. Unfortunately, since it seems to be specific to heroic characters and, as you said, seems to require multiple bodies, it doesn't fit what I'm looking for. But it is a related trope for sure.

So I've noticed quite frequently in superhero comics (but also animated shows) that one character may pose on another whom they defeated in battle, usually by putting one of their feet on the other's stomach, side of the head or chest but without applying too much preassure that it could be considered Cruelty by Feet. Rather it's more like a Captain Morgan Pose but on a person (in case I didn't explain it well enough, this
◊ is what I mean).
I haven't been able to find any fitting trope on my own. Does anyone know a fitting trope?
