Added DiffLines:

* ''Webcomic/MobPsycho100'': The protagonist Mob in his [[SuperpoweredEvilSide ???%]] incarnation. ???% can generate psychic approximations of natural disasters [[spoiler: that level much of the surrounding area he walks through, leading public officials to call for evacuations ''and'' government intervention]]. Mob himself is powerful enough to qualify if carrying sufficient emotional charge, but he lacks the destructive impulse common to other characters on this page. ???% has [[TheUnfettered no such qualms]].
** [[BigBad Honorable mention]] goes to [[SuperpowerLottery Tōichirō]] [[PsychopathicManchild Suzuki]], who [[SuperEmpowering shares his psychic power with hundreds of lackeys]], enabling them to decimate a city on his behalf with intent to TakeOverTheWorld. He would have succeeded [[spoiler: had Mob not intervened.]]
* ''Webcomic/OnePunchMan'': The Heroes Association naturally has more than a few, like Tatsumaki, who can lift an entire city's worth of rubble to throw at a metropolis-sized mothership, or Genos, who can incinerate entire city blocks easy. But the epitome is the protagonist, Saitama, who ''split the goddamn atmosphere'' when he actually threw a somewhat serious punch at someone.

Asskicking Equals Authority has been renamed.


* In ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod'', probably anyone with a Rank anywhere near the top would qualify for this. Perhaps all Rankers.[[note]]When you reach the top of the Tower, you're given a rank that's adjusted based on your achievements, largely meaning AsskickingEqualsAuthority.[[/note]] Even Hoaqin with a fraction of his power, when he's exceptionally powerful compared to the people he's dealing with but still not as powerful as a Ranker, is able to eradicate a courtyard full of people with little effort. One example of High Rankers showing power that could serve as a means of mass destruction is [[http://www.webtoons.com/en/fantasy/tower-of-god/season-2-ep-223/viewer?title_no=95&episode_no=304 the fight between Yuri Jahad and Karaka]], where a huge space is filled with the energies of their respective magical attacks, which would instantly kill a lesser being.

* One of the main themes in ''Webcomic/{{Erfworld}}''. Parson doesn't want to be one of these, but he's damn good at it. Incredible resourcefulness + magical compulsion to try and win battles = lots of dead enemies.

Incredible resourcefulness + magical compulsion to try and win battles = lots of dead enemies. He himself doesn't actually have the power, but he figures out the rules of the world so fast and well he knows ''exactly'' how to crack the earth open and delegate it to those with the power but without the knowledge or ability to object. And ''has''.

* In ''WebComic/KillSixBillionDemons'', the mere arrival of Jagganoth at the end of "King of Swords" turns everyone in the huge amphitheatre he lands in (save those with godlike protection) into charred husks. Subsequently, a missed sword swing of his devastates part of the adjacent city.

to:

* In ''WebComic/KillSixBillionDemons'', the mere arrival Demiurges are all implied to be able to use their Key of Kings to do cosmic-scale alterations like moving stars around, making them this by default. Several of the current Demiurges also exhibit this through their personal power: Mottom is capable of holding a FloatingContinent up in the air with her will alone and could presumably lift and throw similar-sized objects if she wanted to, Solomon David's SupernaturalMartialArts cannot be used at full power inside a planet's atmosphere because the shock waves from his blows can damage the population, Gog-Agog has enough bodies to form asteroid-sized objects out of her own flesh and could therefore personally ColonyDrop a planet, and Jagganoth at is powerful enough that he can create small nuclear explosions just through teleporting and can depopulate the end side of "King of Swords" turns everyone in a planet through conscious effort. According to the huge amphitheatre he lands in (save those with godlike protection) into charred husks. Subsequently, a missed sword swing of his devastates part of the adjacent city.author Jagganoth and Zoss are both 'Goku-level threats', meaning (at least from ''Dragonball Z'' onwards) they're powerful enough to blow up planets fairly casually.

* ''Webcomic/{{XRS}}'': Although much of its capabilities are unknown/untested, what is clear is that in the right (or wrong) hands the XRS is capable of causing tremendous damage to any person,object, or environment it is targeting.

* Black Mage in ''WebComic/EightBitTheater''. The [[KameHameHadoken Hadoken's]] effects were explicitly referred to as similar to a nuclear explosion when it was first used.

* Black Mage in ''WebComic/EightBitTheater''. The [[KameHameHadoken Hadoken's]] effects were explicitly referred to as similar to a nuclear explosion when it was first used.
-->'''Thief''': The Thief's Almanac didn't say anything about atomic detonations either...
** It is explained early on that Black Mage is actually a nexus of magical energy in human form, which may explain his vast power.
** It probably helps that the Hadoken is literally fueled by ThePowerOfLove as well. As in, it drains some love from the universe, enough to up the divorce rate slightly with each blast. Good thing it usually has a once-per-day limit.
* In ''Webcomic/BasketsOfGuts'' any powerful battle mage is this, though the protagonist (being an old-school BlackMage) is the most notable example.
* One of the main themes in ''Webcomic/{{Erfworld}}''. Parson doesn't want to be one of these, but he's damn good at it. Incredible resourcefulness + magical compulsion to try and win battles = lots of dead enemies.
* Keres in ''Webcomic/FeyWinds'' is a {{golem}} [[spoiler:housing the magic and death-rattle of a dead world]]. She's a borderline {{omnicidal maniac}}, willing to kill anything in her way to get to the gate to her home dimension.
* The ''Webcomic/FreakAngels'' are a bunch of powerful psychics. While individually they are capable of great destructive force (they can telekinetically tear a man apart), their powers increase greatly when working in concert. A few of them at a time can demolish buildings, cause explosions, and tear through small armies. [[spoiler:All twelve of them can strike the Earth with enough force to cause catastrophic earthquakes, tidal waves and geomagnetic disturbances]].
* Given the things that the most powerful [[MadScientist Sparks]] in ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' are capable of creating with minimal resources, they probably qualify.
** Agatha once converted a travelling circus into a mechanised army capable of destroying a whole regiment of Baron Wulfenbach's troops, and regularly builds death rays with little time and effort (one was capable of blowing a huge hole in a wall of Castle Heterodyne, one of its other turrets, and a distant mountain; she constructed it in her sleep).
** Gilgamesh was able to create an array of electrical conductors which directed energy into a small rod he carries, which allowed him to destroy an army of battle clanks. At one point, he threatens to reduce Britain to molten slag and set the surrounding seas boiling for the next thousand years. And the person he's making that threat to considers it entirely credible.
** It is implied that Klaus Wulfenbach started alone -- he now rules most of Europa.
* Jack Noir of ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' becomes one [[spoiler:after taking the Black Queen's ring. Shows off his power by devastating two planets.]]
** And after his fourth and final prototyping, [[spoiler:he enters the Trolls' session and obliterates fourteen more planets. But first he kills the amassed army of robo-Aradias.]]
*** As of Cascade, [[spoiler:he has ''killed a universe''.]]
** The God Tiers are mentioned to provide much more power than would actually be needed to win the session (which can be shortened to "You vs. The World, literally"); ANY God Tier is capable of unholy amounts of destruction.
** [[spoiler:Jade Harley]] in the newer updates. She has all the powers of [[spoiler:a First Guardian]] ''and'' [[spoiler:a God Tier Witch of Space]]. She can shrink entire planets down to the size of tennis balls, and [[spoiler:punches a hole through the Fourth Wall with a ship that she's levitating herself. A ship that she's moving to 'almost the speed of light']].
** John drilled a hole into the centre of a ''planet'' using his wind powers, so he could be pretty damn destructive if he wanted to. He also has [[InfinityPlusOneSword one awesome hammer]].
*** Then there was the point in which he teleported an entire planet and generated enough wind to knock over the Homestuck game cartridge.
** While we're on the subject of God Tiers, [[spoiler:Vriska Serket]], to the point where according to [[TheOmniscient Doc Scratch]], she actually had a decent chance against Jack.
** Not actually demonstrated as yet, but mentioned: [[spoiler:God-Tier Dave]] apparently won the SuperpowerLottery in terms of class, as he's a heavy-combat role with an eminently abusable element. [[spoiler:Aradia could freeze Jack in place with her powers over time. Combine that with Dave's badassery, habit of [[MesACrowd having more than one of himself in the same place at the same time]], and an InfinityPlusOneSword, and you have a recipe for ''absolute destruction'']].
** [[BigBad Lord English]] manages to outdo [[BigBadWannabe Jack Noir]] [[spoiler:destroying large portions of ''the afterlife'' and causing massive cracks in reality to appear in the otherwise unchanging empty space between universes.]]
* "Gosh", the Butterfly of Iron in ''Webcomic/TheInexplicableAdventuresOfBob'', is a SpaceMaster whose feats include sending a whole attacking starfleet tumbling out of his way, making a huge alien LivingShip and its passengers seemingly blink out of existence for a moment by "flattening" their constituent de Broglie waves, and threatening to cause the Sun to go nova by altering its gravity. He's an alien race's artificial [[LivingWeapon living]] [[NuclearOption weapon of last resort.]]
* ''Webcomic/KarinDou4koma'': Seren is a infamous magician of immense power, with a "Spell Booster" predisposition that automatically, drastically boosts any spells she casts unless she's wearing her PowerLimiter. Her nicknames include "The Human Solar Cannon" and "The Bomb Princess".
* Radd, in ''Webcomic/KidRadd'', can charge his attack to whatever is the maximum value on the system he's in. In the 8-bit game he's from it's 255. In 12-bit games he becomes a GameBreaker. [[spoiler:Outside of the games, his attack could potentially crash the whole Internet.]]
%%* ''Webcomic/LastRes0rt'' has Veled in this role, and if the concept doesn't scare you already... she's the one in CHARGE.
* High-level magic users in ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'' - such as Vaarsuvius and Xykon - are repeatedly stated to be these.
-->'''Hinjo''': ''[[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0422.html A sorcerer that powerful doesn't engage opponents, he alters the course of entire battles.]]''
%%* Noor and all the outsiders really in ''Webcomic/{{Project 0}}''. Probably the reason for the FantasticRacism.
* Riff from ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance'' tends to view Aylee this way, thinking her species' instincts could make her try to take over the world. This belief turns out to be more justified than he knows in the sense that we eventually find out that the normal pattern of behaviour for someone of her species would be to [[spoiler:breed a whole HordeOfAlienLocusts to consume everything on the planet and then bury into the centre of it and explode.]]
** Riff himself is one, given his abilities to build highly weaponizable technology. His Dimensional Flux Agitator turns out to have the potential to destroy ''the entire universe'' if used carelessly.
* In ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod'', probably anyone with a Rank anywhere near the top would qualify for this. Perhaps all Rankers.[[note]]When you reach the top of the Tower, you're given a rank that's adjusted based on your achievements, largely meaning AsskickingEqualsAuthority.[[/note]] Even Hoaqin with a fraction of his power, when he's exceptionally powerful compared to the people he's dealing with but still not as powerful as a Ranker, is able to eradicate a courtyard full of people with little effort.
