Line 30:
* One ''DC Comics Holiday Special'' features a strip in which Santa Claus breaks through the formidable defences of the [[Polluted Wasteland]] Apokalips in order to deliver to its ruler, the evil god [[Darkseid]], a lump of coal for being naughty. It's implied he does this every year. And then he escapes to do it again next year. And what makes this especially badass is that the Santa who does this is just the traditionally jolly, friendly old man version.
** [[Complete Monster|Knowing Darkseid]], that coal was very well deserved.

** The British ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' comics continuity had a similar case happen to Dr Robotnik, combined with elements of ''A Christmas Carol''.
Line 65:
* ''[[The French Connection]]'' features a brief scene in which the main character, Detective Popeye Doyle, is dressed as a mall santa while on the job.
* In the upcoming movie ''[[The Guardians of Childhood|Rise of the Guardians]]'' Santa dual-wields sabres, apparently associates with yetis, has Naughty and Nice tattooed on his forearms and by his accent in the trailer is probably a [[Husky Russkie]].

* [http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/santa-fu/ Santa-Fu]. [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|As the name suggests]], Santa knows kung-fu, enemies include gingerbread men, elves, and naughty children, and bosses include [[Jingle All the Way|Turbo Man]], Rudolph, and [[Kung Fu Jesus|Jesus himself]].
* ''[[Killing Floor]]'' has Bill "Baddest Santa" Weeks.
{{quote| ''Bill Weeks didn't think he could stoop any lower than a part-time job as the Mall Santa. But the little girl weeing on him screaming "He's the Baddest Santa Evuh!", followed by being fired, took it down yet another notch, so Bill went down the pub to drown his sorrows. Coming out to the next morning he had no job, a filthy headache and a truly evil temper. And the world was full of monsters. Bill picked up a handy shottie and waded in. "I'll show you the Baddest Santa, you BEEEEEEEEP"''}}
* In ''[[Secret of Mana]]'', Santa Claus is the true form of the boss Frost Gigas. See, Santa was frustrated by children no longer believing in the true meaning of Christmas, so he tried to create an amazing Christmas tree by planting the Mana Seed of Fire. This doesn't exactly work out, and the Seed's power turns the jolly old elf into an insane hulking giant with amazing snow and ice magic. Yes. This is a thing that actually happens.
* In a ''Team Fortress 2'' update's backstory, they explain the origin of Australian Christmas being started by Nicholas "Old Nick" Crowder. He was sailing to Australia, got disgusted at the sight of it, and sailed away on a personal mission to conquer the South Pole instead. Every December he comes to Australia to judge if children have been naughty or nice. The nice ones get the greatest gift of all: not being kidnapped and enslaved by Old Nick and being forced to build hats for him. He sells the duplicate hats online "practically giving them away."
