* ''[[Guardians of the Galaxy]]'' once had the entire population of a planet teleported to a safer solar system.
* In ''Cavewoman'', the entire town of Marshville is transported back to the prehistoric past.
* In [[Phil Foglio]]'s ''[[Buck Godot]]'', the titular character convinces the only life-form in the galaxy capable of true teleportation (known simply as "The Teleporter") to help out with a small problem: the star around which a heavily-populated planet orbits is about to go nova. Buck suggests that the population could be distributed to several convenient planets elsewhere, but the Teleporter [https://web.archive.org/web/20150409232950/http://www.airshipentertainment.com/buckcomic.php?date=20070426 offers a rather simpler solution] that simultaneously resolves one of Buck's personal problems.
** Actually that's two problems with separate solutions (both involving teleporting). Teleporting X-Tel to Kooblen solves Buck's (and everyone else's) problem with them. On the next page we learn that the Teleporter saved the doomed planet by moving the whole planet to a different system.
* ''[[Watchmen]]'' has Doctor Manhattan using this to disperse a large scale riot by teleporting every rioter back to their home. As per the [[Crapsack World]] nature of Watchmen, [[Finagle's Law|multiple teleportees die of heart attacks on arrival]].
