* ''ComicBook/TheLegendOfKorraRuinsOfTheEmpire'': [[spoiler: [[Characters/TheLegendOfKorraKuvira Kuvira]] confesses to all her crimes by the end of the trilogy, learning humility and showing actual sincerity in wanting to heal the hurt that she caused. As a result, Team Avatar and the Beifong family have taken steps in forgiving Kuvira, with Suyin convincing the tribunal to let Kuvira live out her days under house arrest in Zaofu. Opal, being the most vocal critic about Kuvira's position, actually says out loud that Kuvira is considered part of their family, something that Kuvira has wanted for all of her life; a place to belong. Opal also hints that Baatar Jr. may forgive her in time too, given that the rest of the family was willing to do so, giving Kuvira hope that their relationship can start anew.]]

*** Both [[ComicBook/Batgirl2009 Stephanie Brown]] and [[ComicBook/{{Oracle}} Barbara Gordon]] ''finally'' get their TheyDo with [[ComicBook/RedRobin Tim]] and [[ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} Dick]]. We see Babs and Dick's wedding day and Tim and Steph almost have TheirFirstTime before injuries force them to decide to [[LetsWaitAWhile wait a while]]. In an alternate unvierse, Dick ends up patching things up with ComicBook/{{Starfire}} instead, being a different happy ending.
*** Dreamslayer pulls a NiceJobFixingItVillain that allows Roy Harper to finally have his daughter, Lian, BackFromTheDead. Lian has no idea what Roy has been through since she died, but the happiness one can feel for the character is unreal.
** The series as a whole has an overtly happy ending: [[spoiler:the ''ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths'' is averted, the original Multiverse is reborn, Telos' prisoners are freed, the [[ComicBook/{{Earth2}} Earth-2]] survivors find a new planet to call home and Brainiac and Telos attain some measure of redemption]].
* During Creator/MarkWaid's run on ''Comicbook/FantasticFour'', the eponymous group ends up in Heaven. Then they meet God--who happens to look like Creator/JackKirby. He gives Johnny a sketch of the foursome -- something to remember the trip by -- and tells them 'you'll earn it'. The sketch? The Fantastic Four: merely older, happy as ever, close as ever, and a caption that reads "To Be Continued!"
* From ''Franchise/TheFlash'':
** The ''ComicBook/TheTrialOfTheFlash'' storyline ran for over two years and had the Flash's life being completely wrecked several times, but in the end Barry and Iris are married happily together in the future.
** Geoff Johns' run on the title when it starred Wally West also counts. Under Johns, Wally had to deal with the birth of the new Zoom, a former friend of his he failed to save and resolved to make Wally a better hero by [[MiseryBuildsCharacter forcing him to experience tragedy]]. Zoom would go on to cause his Wally's wife Linda to miscarry their twin children. After that, Wally learned that his mentor Barry was ''not'' the squeaky clean, white knight hero Wally thought he was, and in fact dipped into some ''very'' morally grey territory. After ''that'', Wally had to deal with the reformed Rogues turning back to their villainous ways but upping it to eleven. ''Then'', he had to deal with a war between various groups all calling themselves the Rogues. And finally, Zoom would return, with Professor Zoom in tow, and force Wally to relive his attack on Wally's wife repeatedly before Wally eventually beat him. At the end of all this, Wally got a second chance at being a father, with his twins being saved, Zoom admitting he was wrong in what he did before disappearing (he got better) and Wally coming to the conclusion that being the Flash is ''never'' about tragedy, but about always moving forward.

* Spider-Man pays a heavy price earning his happy ending in the ''ComicBook/MarvelComics2'' Universe's version of his mythology, which follows a lot of his late 90s continuity. After apparently losing his baby at the hands of Norman Osborn, Peter is left to deal with Osborn's resurfacing as a legit businessman and a huge bounty placed on his head as he is framed for the gajillionth time. He's stalked by a mysterious new Green Goblin, the original Hobgoblin, and yet another son of the then-deceased Kraven The Hunter, before he finally clears his name. In the 616 continuity, he defeats Norman Osborn and is reunited with his elderly Aunt May and goes on to live in luxury with Mary Jane, having retired as Spider-Man... until the pull of the ol' "power and responsibility" kick gets the better of him again. In the MC2 Universe, Peter is reunited with his infant daughter, but opts to remain Spidey anyway. Things go well for him and MJ before a fateful final battle with Norman Osborn costs Peter one of his legs... ouch. Peter decides that THIS is as big a wake-up call as ever to grow up and he puts his web-swinging behind him to raise his daughter... and then his daughter grows up, realizes she has powers, and sets about continuing where her father left off. Peter just can't catch a break trying to earn some peace and quiet... but that's why we love 'em.
* This is the biggest problem with the Utopia Initiative in ''ComicBook/SquadronSupreme''.

Humanity didn't earn its happy ending the way Zarda's Utopians must have.
