* Remember the [[{{MegaMan}} Ruby-Spears Megaman]] cartoon? ''Every single character'' (who wasn't a [[{{BrotherChuck}} one-off]], that is) was appointed Pungeon Master. Better yet, some Masters were themed (Cutman made scissor- and cut-related puns, for one). And of course, [[{{HaveAGayOldTime}} they didn't always check Urban Dictionary.]]

* The entire world of Australian comic ''Snake''. The eponymous reptile is particularly bad about it, but everyone else gets the opportunity to say something groanworthy; it's just that Snake, being TheChewToy, is the one most likely to end up smashed under his own rock or thrown into the river tied to a brick as a result.

* In the english dubs of all three YuGiOh series, most enemy duelists make puns based on their deck theme and/or gimmick. For example: Arkana made magician and show business puns, Seeker made hunting puns, Aster Phoenix made time and destiny puns, Johnson made courtroom puns, etc.
* Kan from ''{{BioMeat}}'' always has to make at least one bad pun each arc. His first one was especially bad, as in areference to making homemade flamethrowers, he remarked that it was "like lighting fire to a bicycle." The other perty members went off without him.

''The Case of the Toxic Spell Dump'' he once described as the fastest book he ever wrote, because all he had to do was keep coming up with increasingly worse puns. Forget Nick Castle--HT is the ''real'' Punnisher!
