** In [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0155.html this]] strip, they plan to sneak in during the darkness, but have all day to wait. Haley invokes the standard RPG trope by declaring "Later, that evening..." and night falls.

** A couple times they've done some LampshadeHanging on this, with characters saying it's okay to use NoFourthWall terms like "[[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0297.html +5 sword]]" or "[[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0584.html red-and-black speech balloon]]" to newer characters awkwardly trying to avoid breaking the wall.

* ''Webcomic/SchlockMercenary'' used to go way over the top with this, to the point of a character pulling aside an orange narration box to get a good look at a grisly wound, or a commander calling out an underling for her use of italics in the previous panel. The use has gradually reduced over time, though the narrator is still occasionally treated as a separate character.
** The cartoonist also likes to show characters holding on to the panel borders when leaning into frame.
* ''Webcomic/BobAndGeorge''
** [[http://www.bobandgeorge.com/archives/000407 Megaman feels himself being changed to 8-bit.]] [[http://www.bobandgeorge.com/archives/000408c Protoman deduces it means an origin story.]]
** [[http://www.bobandgeorge.com/archives/000414c The newly created Protoman can't recognize the fridge, because it's just a gray rectangle.]]
** The "Attack of Bob" arc begins with George noticing the changed background color, realizing that it means the start of a new StoryArc, and panicking.
** Also, it's an explicit law of the comic's universe that neither of the titular characters can die, solely because their names are in the title. So, when the omnipotent Fistandantilus attacks George, he circumvents this rule by changing the title to ''Bob: The Comic Strip'' beforehand.
* In the ''Webcomic/BobAndGeorge'' hosted ''Webcomic/MetroidThirdDerivative'', Samus comments on the specific background music that accompanies fights with space pirates in all three ''VideoGame/MetroidPrime'' games (when you defeat all the pirates in the room, the music changes back to normal). Ie, "Music is fading, I got the last one".
* On [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=326 this page]] of ''WebComic/GunnerkriggCourt'', Antimony ({{narrat|or}}ing from some point in the future), tells the readers that the skipped scene would have made a very amusing MakeoverMontage.
* Scene changes are commented on in [[http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_457.php this strip]] of ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures''.
* [[http://galactanet.com/comic/view.php?strip=6 This strip]] of ''Webcomic/CaseyAndAndy'' has the titular characters treat the borders of the comic panels as visible edges of the space-time continuum, with disastrous results.
* The narrator starts messing with T-Rex in [[http://www.qwantz.com/archive/001192.html this strip]] of ''WebComic/DinosaurComics''.
* Played hilariously in one strip of ''WebComic/EightBitTheater'', where Sarda demonstrates his omnipotent powers by rewriting Black Mage's speech bubbles.
** In an [[http://www.nuklearpower.com/2005/03/24/episode-531-time-for-a-new-space/ earlier strip]], the Light Warriors were trapped in a place where causality and space-time were twisted in on themselves, and could actually see alternate-time versions of themselves above, below, and to either side in other comic panels, and were commenting on each other's comments.
* ''Webcomic/{{Warmage}}'' has built up a plot point around characters who gain "webcomic awareness". It's played as a serious dramatic point without any exploration of the nature of the medium, or the nature of fiction, not even a light-hearted LampshadeHanging. The people who realize they're in a webcomic are still {{Genre Blind|ness}} fools carrying the VillainBall.
* Fancomic ''Pokémon Yellow Comics'' has the main character pointing out whenever the color changes in different areas.
* Occasionally in ''WebComic/SluggyFreelance''
** As one example from the many in the normal strips, in "Sluggy of the Living Freelance", there's a "MOOOO" sound effect after someone saying "WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong" The characters wonder what it was and comment that it was probably supposed to be an ominous sound of thunder, and that the comic needs a new sound-guy.
** Sometimes the characters look at a script as if they were the comic version of AnimatedActors.
** A one-shot guest strip had Riff discover that time was separated by "panels," and invent a device to travel between them. He accidentally hits Sasha with it and is very worried when she falls through the ground, but everything turns out fine when she falls from the sky thirty seconds later on the next row. Coincidentally, another guest strip on the [[http://sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/020407 same page]] also has the characters talking about and interacting with the panels, this time in terms of using a time machine to make them run backwards.
** Debatably EpilepticTrees, there's a theory that Torg has a mild Medium Awareness - he's always the one to realise it's a guest week or the art style has changed, possibly tying in with the fact that he's stated to be unusually psychically sensitive within the strip's setting.
** Riff also has some Medium Awareness going on in the early strips, like when he comments that "[[http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=970922 This strip needs women]]" or [[http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=971201 complains about the poor choice of sound effects]].
* In the ''Webcomic/{{Insecticomics}}'', the panel lines seem to be akin to dimensional barriers. Sideways (by virtue of being a sentient chaos virus), can just walk out of the panel onto the rest of the webpage, Kickback fishes for Vok with a fishing line extending past the bottom panel, and Override's cannon is so powerful that it blasts Dreadmoon and Thrust out of the comic entirely.
* On [[http://www.rice-boy.com/see/index.php?c=034 this page]] of ''Webcomic/RiceBoy'', Golgo's robot eye was able to see the speech bubbles from Rice Boy and T-O-E's conversation. One ''could'' interpret this as a way to show that the robot eye made an audio recording, but WordOfGod confirms the Medium Awareness interpretation.
* ''Webcomic/OneOverZero'' [[NoFourthWall never really had a fourth wall to begin with]] (except when certain characters were given a fourth wall), but one moment that stands out as Medium Awareness is when they're messing with the camera angles due to the rule about not showing the jar and Marcus complains that nobody even knows he's there because of how short he is. Ghanny replies that they would if they've memorized the characters' text UsefulNotes/{{Fonts}} by now.
* ''Webcomic/DungeonsAndDenizens'' did this a fair number of times, but my favorite has got to be [[http://dungeonsanddenizens.com/d/20090115.html this strip]], in which Zerelda complains that Seidistika has planned out her TrainingMontage in advance.
* The first book of ''Webcomic/{{Erfworld}}'' was built around this trope in a sense. The main character Parson was pulled in from reality and is aware that it's a wargame, though while everyone else is aware of the rules, they don't get the context. If Parson understands that Erfworld has game-like rules, he still hasn't gotten the fact that [[spoiler:he's in a ''webcomic'']].
* K, the [[VillainProtagonist protagonist]] of ''[[http://antagonist.swimtrunkstudio.com/ Antagonist]]'' is GenreSavvy and very medium aware, typically looking straight at the fourth wall and talking to an audience that no one else can see. Another character even references his [[http://antagonist.swimtrunkstudio.com/archive_page.php?comicID=77 speech bubbles]] at one point, though he seems to regard them as a delusion or mental image. K's sarcastic response? [[ThisIsReality "This isn't a comic book."]]
* ''WebComic/{{Precocious}}'':
** Ms. Monster [[http://www.precociouscomic.com/archive/comic/2009/06/24 apparently has a rule against students saying her name in Chiller font]].
** Ivy Pingo [[http://www.precociouscomic.com/archive/comic/2010/04/09 can also hear when her daughter uses an asterik in her speech.* ]]

-->"This is nothing ''like'' a comic! You're a girl."
* Charles Bogle loves to do this in ''Webcomic/HelloCleveland!''. Examples range from Newt resting his hands on the edge of the panel to [[FrameBreak Newt]] removing the panel divide.
* In ''Webcomic/NobodyScores'' Raoul reads and comments on the title of [[http://nobodyscores.loosenutstudio.com/index.php?id=424 the strip]].
* ''Webcomic/BobTheAngryFlower'' is rescued from a hopeless situation by a friend who spots a text box narrating how his rescue attempt will fail. He shoots the letters clean off it and they escape.
* ''Webcomic/DarkLegacyComics'': has [[http://www.darklegacycomics.com/411.html the midgets]] discovering the panels. They then stab, smack, and break the panels in such a way that they affect the past and future.
* While characters in ''Webcomic/AMomentOfPeace'' mostly exist in their own universe, they occasionally acknowledge the fourth wall in a casual way, going so far as to use it as a slide at one point.
* In the ''[=OldSkooled=]'' strip "Newton vs. Organized Society, Part One", the bartender draws attention to how video games have stopped using wraparound screens.
* In [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/47 this]] ''Webcomic/CyanideAndHappiness'' strip, the characters are [[MediumAwareness aware of the limited number of panels and necessity of a punchline.]]
* ''[[http://www.roomiescomic.com Roomies]]'' also has the narrator directly interact with the cast. The plot device to explain this is he is a disembodied spirit of some kind. (Not to be confused with the ''other'' webcomic named Roomies, which evolved into ''[[http://www.itswalky.com It's Walky!]]'', or the ''other'' ''other'' webcomic named ''[[http://www.roomies-comic.com/cgi-bin/roomies.cgi Roomies]]'')
** Of course, David Willis' ''[[Webcomic/RoomiesItsWalkyJoyceAndWalky Roomies]]'' briefly [[http://www.bringbackroomies.com/comic/totally-serious/ toyed with]] genre awareness as well, mostly for laughs.
* In ''Webcomic/MonsterOfTheWeek'', after Scully finally accepts that supernatural is real in this 'verse, both she and Mulder become GenreSavvy, recognizing the foreshadowing and commenting on how incredulous/stupid/weird this episode is. Summed up by Mulder once, when Scully started acting as if it was real life:
-->'''Mulder''': Are you even ''aware'' you're in TV show?
* ''Webcomic/{{Narbonic}}'' did this a few times.
* In [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070831 this]] non-canon intermission page of ''WebComic/GirlGenius'', Othar Tryggvassen, GentlemanAdventurer! reacts to the narrator's foreshadowing.
* ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'' sometimes refers to lengths of time in "Strips", and the characters sometimes mention that their main purpose in life is to make jokes about the rules of ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons''. In an interesting twist, they also often display an awareness that they're PlayerCharacters in a game of ''D&D''. Which they're not, really, that's just part of the strip. This is your brain on fictional metafiction...
-->'''Belkar''': Hey! If we don't stop the weepy melodrama I'm going to start dropping pop culture references, and I don't think ''anyone'' wants that!
** In [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0155.html this]] strip, they plan to sneak in during the darkness, but have all day to wait. Haley invokes the standard RPG trope by declaring "Later, that evening..." and night falls.
** During a fight, Haley is shot by a spell that [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0518.html blasts out of the comic's box]]. In the first panel of [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0519.html the next]] says 'At least I landed back in the panel.'
** A couple times they've done some LampshadeHanging on this, with characters saying it's okay to use NoFourthWall terms like "[[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0297.html +5 sword]]" or "[[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0584.html red-and-black speech balloon]]" to newer characters awkwardly trying to avoid breaking the wall.
** In the collected edition, ''Dungeon Crawlin' Fools'', one of the bonus strips has Roy siccing a dangerous monster on the Narrator (a guy with a microphone who'd been standing 'just out of the frame') to get them both out of their way.
** In the volume, ''War and [[=XPs=]]'', a book-exclusive extra strip shows Julio Scoundrel's daring escape from Cliffport; Elan comments that it was pretty exciting "for a bonus comic!"
** And in [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0602.html this strip]], one of the characters realises that they're about to be attacked due to a sudden cutaway panel.
** And then there's [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0649.html the time]] Haley ''climbed the sidebar of the strip's Web page'' so she could make her way to the illustrated cast biography and steal the diamond she she was holding in her profile, which has since been replaced with a note reading "I.O. Me One big-ass diamond".
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0458.html In this strip]], Sabine needs to explain to Thog how time can pass in comic strip panels.
** And there's also the time when they needed to feed the monster in the darkness, and Belkar complained that he couldn't do it because "I told you that in one of the Dragon comics, so I'm not even sure if that's the same continuity..."
** Don't spell Xykon's name wrong in your speech bubble. He can tell if you do.
** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0788.html Thog]] will always treasure thog's adventure with talky-man. it featured non-traditional panel layout.
--> '''Roy Greenhilt''': What about the dozens of civilians you killed to lure them there?
--> '''Thog''': actually, thog hazy on that. did thog kill them off-panel?
** And [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0882.html the time]] that Tarquin realizes that that since he's talking openly about Malack being a vampire, that must mean it was already revealed to the heroes (and thus the readers); otherwise he would've been restricted to vaguely alluding to it even though everyone actually in the scene already knew.
* ''Webcomic/SchlockMercenary'' used to go way over the top with this, to the point of a character pulling aside an orange narration box to get a good look at a grisly wound, or a commander calling out an underling for her use of italics in the previous panel. The use has gradually reduced over time, though the narrator is still occasionally treated as a separate character.
** The cartoonist also likes to show characters holding on to the panel borders when leaning into frame.
* ''Webcomic/BobAndGeorge''
** [[http://www.bobandgeorge.com/archives/000407 Megaman feels himself being changed to 8-bit.]] [[http://www.bobandgeorge.com/archives/000408c Protoman deduces it means an origin story.]]
** [[http://www.bobandgeorge.com/archives/000414c The newly created Protoman can't recognize the fridge, because it's just a gray rectangle.]]
** The "Attack of Bob" arc begins with George noticing the changed background color, realizing that it means the start of a new StoryArc, and panicking.
** Also, it's an explicit law of the comic's universe that neither of the titular characters can die, solely because their names are in the title. So, when the omnipotent Fistandantilus attacks George, he circumvents this rule by changing the title to ''Bob: The Comic Strip'' beforehand.
* In the ''Webcomic/BobAndGeorge'' hosted ''Webcomic/MetroidThirdDerivative'', Samus comments on the specific background music that accompanies fights with space pirates in all three ''VideoGame/MetroidPrime'' games (when you defeat all the pirates in the room, the music changes back to normal). Ie, "Music is fading, I got the last one".
* On [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=326 this page]] of ''WebComic/GunnerkriggCourt'', Antimony ({{narrat|or}}ing from some point in the future), tells the readers that the skipped scene would have made a very amusing MakeoverMontage.
* Scene changes are commented on in [[http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_457.php this strip]] of ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures''.
* [[http://galactanet.com/comic/view.php?strip=6 This strip]] of ''Webcomic/CaseyAndAndy'' has the titular characters treat the borders of the comic panels as visible edges of the space-time continuum, with disastrous results.
* The narrator starts messing with T-Rex in [[http://www.qwantz.com/archive/001192.html this strip]] of ''WebComic/DinosaurComics''.
* Played hilariously in one strip of ''WebComic/EightBitTheater'', where Sarda demonstrates his omnipotent powers by rewriting Black Mage's speech bubbles.
** In an [[http://www.nuklearpower.com/2005/03/24/episode-531-time-for-a-new-space/ earlier strip]], the Light Warriors were trapped in a place where causality and space-time were twisted in on themselves, and could actually see alternate-time versions of themselves above, below, and to either side in other comic panels, and were commenting on each other's comments.
* ''Webcomic/{{Warmage}}'' has built up a plot point around characters who gain "webcomic awareness". It's played as a serious dramatic point without any exploration of the nature of the medium, or the nature of fiction, not even a light-hearted LampshadeHanging. The people who realize they're in a webcomic are still {{Genre Blind|ness}} fools carrying the VillainBall.
* Fancomic ''Pokémon Yellow Comics'' has the main character pointing out whenever the color changes in different areas.
* Occasionally in ''WebComic/SluggyFreelance''
** As one example from the many in the normal strips, in "Sluggy of the Living Freelance", there's a "MOOOO" sound effect after someone saying "WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong" The characters wonder what it was and comment that it was probably supposed to be an ominous sound of thunder, and that the comic needs a new sound-guy.
** Sometimes the characters look at a script as if they were the comic version of AnimatedActors.
** A one-shot guest strip had Riff discover that time was separated by "panels," and invent a device to travel between them. He accidentally hits Sasha with it and is very worried when she falls through the ground, but everything turns out fine when she falls from the sky thirty seconds later on the next row. Coincidentally, another guest strip on the [[http://sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/020407 same page]] also has the characters talking about and interacting with the panels, this time in terms of using a time machine to make them run backwards.
** Debatably EpilepticTrees, there's a theory that Torg has a mild Medium Awareness - he's always the one to realise it's a guest week or the art style has changed, possibly tying in with the fact that he's stated to be unusually psychically sensitive within the strip's setting.
** Riff also has some Medium Awareness going on in the early strips, like when he comments that "[[http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=970922 This strip needs women]]" or [[http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=971201 complains about the poor choice of sound effects]].
* In the ''Webcomic/{{Insecticomics}}'', the panel lines seem to be akin to dimensional barriers. Sideways (by virtue of being a sentient chaos virus), can just walk out of the panel onto the rest of the webpage, Kickback fishes for Vok with a fishing line extending past the bottom panel, and Override's cannon is so powerful that it blasts Dreadmoon and Thrust out of the comic entirely.
* On [[http://www.rice-boy.com/see/index.php?c=034 this page]] of ''Webcomic/RiceBoy'', Golgo's robot eye was able to see the speech bubbles from Rice Boy and T-O-E's conversation. One ''could'' interpret this as a way to show that the robot eye made an audio recording, but WordOfGod confirms the Medium Awareness interpretation.
* ''Webcomic/OneOverZero'' [[NoFourthWall never really had a fourth wall to begin with]] (except when certain characters were given a fourth wall), but one moment that stands out as Medium Awareness is when they're messing with the camera angles due to the rule about not showing the jar and Marcus complains that nobody even knows he's there because of how short he is. Ghanny replies that they would if they've memorized the characters' text UsefulNotes/{{Fonts}} by now.
* ''Webcomic/DungeonsAndDenizens'' did this a fair number of times, but my favorite has got to be [[http://dungeonsanddenizens.com/d/20090115.html this strip]], in which Zerelda complains that Seidistika has planned out her TrainingMontage in advance.
* The first book of ''Webcomic/{{Erfworld}}'' was built around this trope in a sense. The main character Parson was pulled in from reality and is aware that it's a wargame, though while everyone else is aware of the rules, they don't get the context. If Parson understands that Erfworld has game-like rules, he still hasn't gotten the fact that [[spoiler:he's in a ''webcomic'']].
* K, the [[VillainProtagonist protagonist]] of ''[[http://antagonist.swimtrunkstudio.com/ Antagonist]]'' is GenreSavvy and very medium aware, typically looking straight at the fourth wall and talking to an audience that no one else can see. Another character even references his [[http://antagonist.swimtrunkstudio.com/archive_page.php?comicID=77 speech bubbles]] at one point, though he seems to regard them as a delusion or mental image. K's sarcastic response? [[ThisIsReality "This isn't a comic book."]]
* ''WebComic/{{Precocious}}'':
** Ms. Monster [[http://www.precociouscomic.com/archive/comic/2009/06/24 apparently has a rule against students saying her name in Chiller font]].
** Ivy Pingo [[http://www.precociouscomic.com/archive/comic/2010/04/09 can also hear when her daughter uses an asterik in her speech.* ]]
** There's also a gag involving the script in [[http://www.precociouscomic.com/archive/comic/2011/01/23 this guest strip]].
* In ''WebComic/TheWayOfTheMetagamer'', the characters can [[http://wayofthemetagamer.thecomicseries.com/comics/pl/18673 read each other's]] [[http://wayofthemetagamer.thecomicseries.com/comics/pl/21467 speech bubbles.]]
* The Fey in ''Webcomic/KeychainOfCreation'' are explicitly aware that they live in a webcomic based around the rules of ''TabletopGame/{{Exalted}}''. This befuddles most of the other characters, who 'know' that they live directly in ''TabletopGame/{{Exalted}}''. In this case, it is because the Fey in the aforementioned game have an utterly alien mindset, and this was an easy way to represent that. The Sidereals seem to have a little bit of this too, with moves that rely upon breaking perspective and knocking people through the box boundaries - which is kind of what Sidereal Martial Arts normally do.
