Palindrome is a word sequence that can be read backwards but remains the same. Just as writers like to play with [[SignificantAnagram anagrams]], [[FunWithAcronyms acronyms and initialisms]], so indeed do they seize opportunities to use palindromes. However, since it's hard to come up with a palindrome--let alone a meaningful one--it's unlikely to be a plot point, and is usually a result of the RuleOfFun.

* A 2011 issue of the comic book ''ComicBook/{{Zatanna}}'' had the sorceress (who pronounces the words in her spells backwards) going up against a villain with time-reversal powers, that allowed him to negate her spells by having them sound like normal words. She got around his powers by casting spells in palindromes (such as "Nurses Run" causing him to be stampeded by an army of running nurses). Other palindrome spells she has cast include summoning a racecar, and "Egad! Nobody do bondage!" to untie herself.

** This series also has the ketek poetical form. A ketek must read the same forwards and backwards (going by word rather than letter and allowing for changes in verb form) and must be divisible into five segments which each express a complete thought. (i.e. "Radiant / of birthplace / the announcer comes / to come announce / the birthplace of Radiants.") Many keteks show up over the course of the Archive, some with plot relevance.
