There is even a badassNANNY. Who wears black leather.
Oh, she's no nanny ... she's a killing machine whom Klaus Wulfenbach repurposed into a babysitter. Threaten her kids and she will rip you to shreds.
Even the Baron's secretary and Gil's valet get in on it. (Okay, the former is a Sparkishly-altered minion with enhanced strength and dexterity, and an extra set of hands, while the later is actually a British spy posing as a valet, but still. Bad. Ass.)
Kevyn kills shielded tanks and shoots down warships from time to time with antimatter grenades. That he wears on his shoulders. And explosives are "Justahobby."
All of Tagon's Toughs earn their name. And then there's Petey...
Take a look at what the paladin O-Chul does in ThisThe Order of the Stick strip and tell me that he's not badass. This is apparently a regular occurrence for him, and yes, that is an acid-breathing shark. Based on the number of attacks/round he gets in a strip, he is at least level 16, a higher level than at least one of the PCs. Word of God claims he has a constitution score in the mid 20s, when most characters would be lucky to get their primary stats into the low 20s without falling into Crippling Over Specialization .
O-Chul does not have a Constitution score, Constitution has an O-Chul score!
The titular character of The Adventures of Dr. McNinja, who took out evil Ronald McDonald with a mime ninja rocket launcher, punched out a giant crazed lumberjack, captured and now rides a trained velociraptor, beat up Death himself, and recently punched Dracula in the face.
Gordito, Dr. McNinja's sidekick, as well. A tween who grew a massive mustache through sheer force of will, he killed a clone of Ben Franklin's Zombie, killed several flying magical sharks of doom summoned by a ghost wizard, and proved he was more cunning and quick-thinking than the woman who trained both the Good Doctor and Gordito himself when he saved her son from Dracula's last minute cheap shot aimed at him. Oh, and when he was first informed of his new status as sidekick, this is what he had to say:
Gordito:"I don't kick. I shoot people. That makes them die."
And Dan McNinja, the hero's father- The moment that his mustache was revealed, hordes of ninjas bowed down to him in homage, crowning him their leader. He escaped an attack of ninja drug abusing teenagers — he lit himself on fire. Because if you're on fire, ninjas cannot catch you.
Do not mess with The Mother McNinja. Trust us. Just don't.
Miranda Deegan is an archmage with a nigh-infinite knowledge of arcane magic; Donovan Deegan is an awesome musician and master swordsman; Dominic has incredible intellect, an amazing ability to think several steps ahead, and has never thrown a single punch throughout the length of the comic; the Deegan family is turning into a Badass Family... And Luna is marrying in to the family!
The MS Paint Adventures series Problem Sleuth has the titular hard-boiled detective, who is unique from his teammates in that he does all of his own asskicking throughout the story instead of creating replicas of himself. His fighting technique, "Sleuth Diplomacy" runsontheBadasseryofthecharacter. This is the guy who saves the entire imaginary world and defeats the Final Boss DMK once and for all through sheer virtue of his charisma alone. He's the series' version of Kamina.
Sorry, Dave, but until you can cut a meteor in half (while riding it, no less) and fight post-prototyping Jack Noir to a draw, Bro's got the edge over you on this one.
It's implied in one conversation that future John is much, much stronger than future Dave.
The Midnight Crew from the Intermission. They take on a rival gang of Time Masters that outnumbers them four to one on their home turf and nearly succeed in killing them all with nothing but an arsenal of relatively mundane weapons and prior knowledge of their foes' powers.
Richard is an all-powerful warlock who performs henious acts of evil out of nothing more than boredom. If he doesn't have acess to his magic he can still kick your ass with his bare hands, because he drained the soul of a monk once (it tasted like chocolate).
Iceland also banishes demons and houses the gate to Hell!
Dexter. He scaled the enemy base, fought the Big Bad with giant robot hands, and ,just because he's that awesome, slapped the Big Bad across his face after he broke the nearly unbreakable glass tube his girlfriend was in.
Arguably every male on Manly men doing Manly things (except Jared)[1]

Tex from Red vs. Blue The ULTIMATE female Bad Ass.
Especially apparent after her glorious reappearance in Revelation, where she utterly decimates Tucker and the Reds at the same time without getting hit once or breaking a sweat. A 7-minute beatdown.
F.I.L.S.S.: Agent Tex is a bit of a badass.
Agent Washington became badass around the time he took down a Hornet solo in less than a minute. Nothing he has done since then has changed this, only added to it. Notable points are taking on the Meta with a chain gun and everything he does from episode 15 onward.
Also South,The Meta/Maine, North- it's a requirement if you want to be a freelancer.
Both characters in Draw With Me. The boy tries to break through the unbreakable glass, and succeeds, but he loses his hand as a result. What does the girl do? She cuts her own arm off for him to use to draw!
Mecha Sonic, the Big Bad of Super Mario Bros. Z, definitely qualifies as this, especially in Episode 6 where he singlehandedly gives the Mario crew, the Axem Rangers and the Koopa Bros one of the most epic fights of the series so far.
Captain Basilisx, the first truly original character in the series, who hands Mario his ass in record time. And he does so in a pitch-black armored spiky shell with Wolverine Claws on his hands after petrifying the rest of the team just by looking at them.
The Shadow, a teenager who fights crime on the streets of LA. His natural healing factor allows for such badass stunts as diving through the windshield of an oncoming car, forcing it to crash, and sending himself and the driver 20 feet through the air, and then standing back up to threaten the driver with more grievous bodily harm.
Firestorm, the Brat Pack's Lancer, during a fight with Gauss, one of the <3-Verse's top villains, found his body trapped in an oxygenless environment. He cut himself open, and used the oxygen in his blood to melt through his bindings, before throwing a fireball at Gauss. All to prove he was ten times the hero his dad was. No mean feat, considering his dad was a 'Nam vet, and was a founding member of the <3-Verse's Avengers equivalent. And His alter ego, the Pumpkin King, who teams up with the Shadow on a regular basis.
Oran is the best representative from Broken Saints for this bill, although Kamimura has his moments.
There Will Be Brawl features a few examples, but Mario stands well above the rest. He starts by subduing a rabid attack Yoshi with his bare hands, and finishes by single-handedly defeating about half of Ganondorf's army (with a Super Star) and then beating a Smash Ball out of the sandbag and using his own Final Smash to bring down the Kaiju-sized Octupus form of the Game and Watches. Mario is so utterly Badass in the series that he made putting down a liquor bottle a Crowning Moment of Awesome.
Zeke Strahm of The Slender Man Mythos. He's one of the few characters who decides to face Slender Man with human awareness; his first reaction is to get a handgun and start shooting at him, even if he's ineffectual. He later decides to find the facts on Slendy, and work out a weakness.
GASP! The Chief?! I heard that guy drinks tiger blood milkshakes for breakfast and can only orgasm when he wins at Russian Roulette! (The bullets bounce off of his head.)
Sarge counts his pushups using the names of dictators he's defeated, smokes cigars made of the rolled up constitutions of nations he's overthrown, and will pluck eyeballs out places you didn't even know you saw out of.
Squidington, the squid that lives in Gamechap's pond outside his house, is completely invincible. He not only scared a creeper into running away and knocked Gamechap into the air when he fell in the pond, but also survived a Herobrine Biome Buster, something that completely decimated everything within an enormous radius.
The assorted cast of That Guy With The Glasses have proven themselves Badass on several occasions, including:
Linkara has on numerous occassions saved the world from destruction and enslavement.
Spoony has on several ocassions fought and defeated superior foes such as Squall, Tidus, and Yuna.
When united, several of the reviewers managed to defeat an immortal wizard.
Marble Hornets gives us Jay, who in entry #52 flying tackles and then fights with The Operator. Yes, Jay gets his ass kicked, and he has a killer case of amnesia afterwards, but he's the only one who's been willing to go mano a mano with everyones favorite Eldritch Abomination.
