If it wasn't planned it's not an example. Per the trope page, " The inclusion of the content must be intentional, and the creators of the work must be aware that it ought to be censored. There should be a deliberate effort to slip it past the Media Watchdogs."

* PlotHole: The crux of La Legion's plight is that they had no way of communicating their peaceful wishes with the natives of Fuertonas, as they didn't speak the same language. The same issue that revealed this earlier showed them possessing Madrimar and communicating in plain English through her. So they have no way to communicate with others, except for their way of communicating with others.

* OffModel: Due to the revolving cast of artists, pencilers and inkers, most issues tend to draw America contrary to her canon appearance. Her face usually has strong, sharp facial features, but some artists will draw her with a more feminine appearance. Other artists exaggerate her features and make her look very masculine. This is most obvious in the seventh issue, where the pages are divided between six different artists.
