Line 71:
** Topped by Lono, whose presence is often defined by his grin. There are many times throughout the comic where all you can see his smile, shining in the darkness.
* The Joker. King of this trope.
* In a ''[[Garfield]]''
** In one early strip, Garfield tormented Jon by Cheshire cat grinning in the dark.
** In another early strip, Jon wakes up to see Garfield grinning widely at him. "Oh, great," he says to himself. "Garfield ate my toothpaste again..."
* One ''[[Beetle Bailey]]'' Sunday strip had Beetle torment Sarge by periodically giving him one of these smiles. Sarge tore his living quarters and office apart trying to find whatever [[Practical Joke]] Beetle had set up (in fact, there wasn't one).
* In one ''[[Calvin and Hobbes]]'' arc, when Calvin notices Susie left her dolls outside while she had lunch, Calvin makes one and says "That gives me a ''brilliant'' idea!"
Line 82 ⟶ 84:
* Trolls in the Franco-Belgian comic ''[[Lanfeust]]'' often make those, usually when they are about to brutally slaughter people or cause heavy property damage (which is most of the time).
* From ''[[X-Factor (comics)|X-Factor]]'', the anti-mutant militant hate group [[Politically-Incorrect Villain|The Right]] had mooks with [[Powered Armor]] with big grins painted on the faces of the helmets, presumably intended as psychological warfare.
* Very literal example in one series of ''[[Peanuts]]'' strips: Snoopy is listening to Linus read the chapter of ''[[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]]'' where Alice meets the Cat, and then Snoopy grins widely. Linus is shocked when Snoopy disappears, leaving only his grin. Then he reappears, and says, "I've been able to do that for years!"
