* In ''Film/TheCrow'', Eric Draven's return from the grave gifts him with a healing factor that prevents him from gaining any new scars -- but the scars from the bullets that killed him remain clearly visible on his chest when shirtless.

** Oubliette, the daughter of villain Doctor Midas in Creator/GrantMorrison's ''Marvel Boy'', wears a mask to hide her facial scarring; the Evil Scar trope is subverted after [[spoiler:she rebels against Midas, at which point it's revealed that her face is normal, except for a rather clean fencing scar her father gave her]].

*** In the ''Ultimate Doomsday Trilogy'', [[spoiler:Johnny Storm burns off half of Reed Richard's face when he turns evil, though it does eventually begin to heal. By the time of ''ComicBook/SecretWars2015'' it's been reduced to a few small scars]].
*** ''ComicBook/UltimateXMen'': John Wraith leads Weapon X, which basically amounts to a mutant concentration camp. Wolverine once slashed him in the face.

* ''[[Frabchise/MonsterVerse Godzilla x Kong: The Hunted]]'': [[Characters/MonsterVerseHumans Raymond Martin]], the main antagonist of the comic, has glaring scars almost like claw marks running from his mouth down to his throat, and he's a truly vile and evil piece of work who commits atrocious VanHelsingHateCrimes against all the monsters that are living preacefully in Kong's kingdom -- even ''[[WouldHurtAChilds babies]]''.

* ''[[VideoGame/FamicomDetectiveClub Famicom Detective Club:The Missing Heir]]'' manages to both have a subversion and an inversion. [[spoiler:The protagonist is identified as the child of the missing Yuri Ayashiro, due to sporting a nasty-looking burn mark on his right shoulder that he received while she was rescuing him from a fire, as a baby. The game's culprit, Kyonosuke Kanda, has a more subtle but no less noteworthy set of scratch marks on his left cheek, when he had a scuffle with Azusa Kasuga. Noteworthy, because he was "known" as Amachi up to that point.]]

'''NOT''' TruthInTelevision, as how an individual scars is the result of age, genetics, and how the wound is cared for, while artificial limbs are much more likely to be the result of a transportation accident than an evil deed.

* ''Fanfic/ThrowAwayYourMask'': Akechi gets a scar on his cheek from [[spoiler: Jin throwing a knife at him in an attempt to stop his escape]]. Good guy scar or not, it doesn't stop the RuggedScar rumor mill at school, and Akechi hardly wants to tell the true story.

* ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'' and ''TabletopGame/WarhammerFantasy'' has a ton of scarred individuals though how disfiguring their scars indicates how evil they are. If a character is a member of the generally noble albeit fanatical Adepta Sororitas or loyalist Space Marine, then expect a scar over the eye and at most a few small scars around the mouth. If they are something like the ultra-fanatical Flagellants of the Old World Empire, except them to have disease scars and hideous mutilations that reflect their ambiguous morality.

* ''TabletopGame/MutantChronicles'': Bauhaus heroine Valerie Duvall of the Etoiles Mordants and formerly of the Doom Troopers, has a scar over one eye which fails to diminish her good looks. Interestingly the comic book set in the Mutant Chronicles mentions that the person scarring her is the Capitol hero Mitch Hunter of the Sea Lions and also ex-Doom Trooper.

* ''Series/MidnightDiner'' has the Master, who's a kind and empathetic man who is seldom judgemental and glad to offer advice to a troubled patron. So he's got a long scar over his left eye to indicate he's lived past some kind of trouble from long ago (the show never mentions what happened, but it involved a former patron).
