== Literature ==
* The Osteomechs from ''[[Dark World Detective]]''. They use advanced computers stored in their skulls and micro tractor/pressor beams as muscles. Strong as hell, but very light.
* There's a "very old zombie" in [[Terry Pratchett]]'s ''[[Discworld]]'' book ''[[
** And now there's Charlie, the Department of Necr- Post-Mortem Communications' resident skeleton, who's been there "forever".
* The [[Andre Norton]] novel ''Quag Keep'', which was based on [[Dungeons & Dragons]].
Line 282:
* One episode of [[Aladdin (Disney film)|Disney's Aladdin]] TV show featured a big bad with skeleton minions. Aladdin and crew pulled off the standard "knock the minions together" knockout, only for the skeletons to [[Pulling Themselves Together|pull themselves]] [[Invincible Minor Minion|back together]] into ''new shapes''. Two got [[Grievous Harm with a Body|smashed together]] to form a centaur with four arms and two heads.
* In the ''[[G.I. Joe]]'' episode "The Phantom Brigade" a skeleton rises up from the floor to threaten Cobra Commander into giving up control of three spirits. The Commander is resonably freaked out and even the Joes who walk in on the scene can't believe what they're seeing.
* ''[[The Real Ghostbusters]]'' fought an army of skeletons in "Bustman's Holiday" and a crew of skeletal [[Ghost Pirate]]s in "Sea Fright". In both cases, these skeletons seemed to be incorporeal spirits rather than animated bones.
