* ComicBook/{{Artemis}} can do some pretty neat things with a bow and arrow. In ''ComicBook/{{Wonder Woman|1987}}'': "ComicBook/TheContest" (her introductory arc) alone she [[SplittingTheArrow split an arrow]], nonchalantly loosed an arrow into a gun barrel in the middle of fight against enhanced foes, and [[PinnedToTheWall pined a man to the wall]] [[KnifeOutline using his suit without harming him]].
* ComicBook/{{Deadshot}}, a gun-wielding assassin and sometimes AntiHero from Franchise/TheDCU, has a long-standing reputation for never missing his shot (unless he happens to be [[PlotArmor aiming at Batman]]). In a ''ComicBook/SuicideSquad'' miniseries, he took out six targets scattered around a room ''while blindfolded''. Not only this, but he has ricocheted his bullets off poles, while turned around, and hit each target with perfect accuracy.
** Earlier in the same series, he failed to shoot a target in the bullseye while blindfolded...because Captain Boomerang Jr. had hit all his bullets in mid-air, using bent paperclips. (Admittedly using SuperSpeed, but still.). In ''[[ComicBook/BatmanAndTheOutsiders The Outsiders]]'', while in a prison riot, Captain Boomerang Jr. had grabbed and thrown something, bouncing it off the walls, to hit and knock out a fellow prisoner.
** One of the only times Deadshot ''did'' miss, it was in his youth, a tree branch he was standing on snapped under him, and what should have been a disarming shot became a kill shot. [[spoiler:The person he unintentionally killed was his beloved older brother.]]
* There's an {{Elseworlds}} comic in which Franchise/TheFlash (Wally West) has lost his legs. His contribution to battles is now as a gunslinger, since he has all the time in the world to aim every shot. (For some inexplicable reason he's shown using ordinary handguns. He could probably aim every shot with a machinegun on full-auto.)
* The [[ComicBook/FiftyTwo Great Ten's]] Celestial Archer is capable of freaking ridiculous feats with this. He can shoot out the sun and hit a target on the other side of the world. In his defense, his bow is a weapon of the gods and thus is inherently capable of doing that kind of thing.
* From both Franchise/TheDCU and Franchise/MarvelUniverse, [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower self-trained]] superhero archers ComicBook/GreenArrow and ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}}, and their families of characters, can ''ricochet'' arrows off walls and into targets. And that's not even getting into [[TrickArrow "boxing glove arrows", "bomb arrows", "net arrows" or "cat arrows"]] (don't ask). They have, at times, been depicted as so implausibly good, some people [[EpilepticTrees theorize]] that they actually have psychokinesis and are simply using it to show off by making it look like they're the world's greatest archers. The fact that the artists and writers of their titles usually don't do very much research into how archers actually even ''hold'' their bows drives it home for a lot of people.
** In ''Comicbook/BatmanTheDarkKnightReturns'', Green Arrow has lost an arm and still manages to be a crackshot. Green Arrow once lost ''both'' arms (he got better) and still managed to pull off a shot by bracing the bow with his feet and pulling the arrow back with his teeth.
* Former Comicbook/GreenArrow sidekick Roy Harper, [[IHaveManyNames aka Speedy aka Arsenal aka Red Arrow aka Arsenal again]], boasts that he never misses -- boasts that he can back up. During the ''Rise of Arsenal'' storyline, Roy, in a fit of rage, stricken with grief, addled with drugs, and handicapped by his unfamiliar cybernetic arm, breaks his bow, throws it at a bullseye -- ''and hits it dead center''. Even when doped up, handicapped, and mentally unbalanced, he never misses. Note that right before this he ''had'' missed every actual shot he took with the bow. The point at the time was to recast Roy back into his non-archer gun/knife nut phase. Or to show that he was so messed up he was overthinking his shots.
* Franchise/GreenLantern: Bedovian, a Yellow Lantern and John Stewart, a Green Lantern. The two of them are capable of [[ColdSniper sniping]] each other from ''three space sectors away''. Just to give you an idea of how big a sector is, the entire universe is divided into 3600 sectors by the Green Lantern Corps. A conservative estimate would put the size of a sector in the several hundreds of thousands of lightyears.
** Stewart and Bedovian weren't necessarily hundreds of thousands of light years away from each other in that instance. The space sectors into which the universe is divided are wedges, with each wedge narrowing as one approaches Oa, the center of the universe. Thus, the closer one gets to Oa, the less distance one has to travel to cross any three sectors. At the time of the sniping incident, Stewart was on or very close to Oa and, if Bedovian was also fairly close to Oa, they may have been shooting across three sectors without being all that far from each other (while not ''quite'' as incredible, the distance would still be pretty impressive).
* In his first appearance in the pages of ''Franchise/{{J|usticeLeagueOfAmerica}}LA'', the villain Prometheus fired a bullet at Catwoman from one of his gauntlet-guns. The ComicBook/{{Huntress}} shot the bullet out of midair with a crossbow bolt. This is a woman who, when introduced, was just a schoolteacher who worked out a lot.
* In ''[[ComicBook/RobinSeries Robin Vol 1]]'', Tim manages to cork the gun barrel of Dorrance's right hand man by throwing a screw into it from a couple of floors up which caused the gun to backfire somehow.
* Thanks to her telescopic vision, Comicbook/{{Supergirl}} has literal super-aim. In a Silver Age comic she hits her target from ''space''.
* ComicBook/SteveTrevor is a crack shot with his service weapon, and has been shooting chains off of imprisoned allies and similar feats since the early days of ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1942''.
* Franchise/{{Superman}}, in one comic, pretends to be a villain named the [[SuperDickery Golden Dart]], kidnaps Lois Lane, and throws darts at her. His Improbable Aiming Skills allow him to keep himself from hitting Lois, instead missing her by "scant inches".
* Arrowette of ''ComicBook/YoungJustice'', who is probably not a member of the Comicbook/GreenArrow Clan, was once shown having a conversation with her mother (the [[LegacyCharacter first Arrowette]]) while playing darts. The camera pans back to show a line of darts driven into each other point to tail, Myth/RobinHood style, from the first, dead center on the target. The ladies decide they really need to find a different game to compete with.
