* According to [[Depending on the Writer|some versions]] of the character (particularly the [[Darker and Edgier|MAX universe]]), if [[The Punisher]] were given enough time and ammo he would literally kill every person on earth.

== Fan Works ==

** Demons are played differently in ''[[Pathfinder]]''—while they love wanton murder and destruction, they ''don't'' want to destroy everything because then they'd have no more fun. Instead, the cessation of all life is the goal of the [[Neutral Evil]] daemons, who know nothing but hatred for everything, themselves included, and derive pleasure from nothing. To compare the two, whereas a demon would rape you to death for its own enjoyment, a daemon would quickly and efficiently kill you just to snuff you out.

*** The Asuras are a minor type of [[Lawful Evil]] fiends who want to destroy all of divine creation as they are "errors" of the gods, while the [[Eldritch Abomination|Qlippoth]] want to eradicate [[Kill All Humans|all sentient live]] so no sinful souls arrive in the Abyss to form Demons, so the Qlippoth can reclaim it for them again.

*** And finally, there are the [[Chaotic Neutral|not actually evil]] Proteans, [[Blue and Orange Morality|who want to destroy everything so they can build it anew.]]

* In the [[New World of Darkness]], while many beings are malevolent and highly destructive, the most noteworthy are from ''[[Mage: The Awakening]]'': the Scelesti (mages who serve the abhorrent [[Cosmic Horror|Abyss]], and seek to allow its anti-reality to seep into this world in order to bring it to an end) and the Cult of the Doomsday Clock (a group of mages who believe that the best way to free the souls of humanity is to destroy all of time and history, using their evil clocks, and by becoming living time paradoxes. They also (unknowingly) serve the Abyss).

{{quote|'''Necron Pariah:''' There is an alternative (to life). There exists a state in which all conflict is resolved and all is cold and silent. There are no wants, no wars, no squabbles. You may call this state death if you wish, but that is a misnomer. Death is but the ending of life, and that is only a means to an end. That end is purity, the time when all is still and unchanging.}}

* This is the true nature of the Army of the Expeditionary Force, from the aptly named ''3:16 Carnage Amongst the Stars''.

 

== Video Games ==

* [[Darkseid]] from the ''[[DCAU]]'' has the ultimate goal of obtaining the anti-life equation and using it to undo the current existence, so he can rebuild it in a manner more to his liking. Unfortunately it tends to be overshadowed by his 'torment Superman' schemes.

** Brainiac, also from the [[DCAU]], acts to destroy all of creation, but this is due to his programming rather than any genuine malicious wish to do so.

* {{spoiler|Owlman}} in ''[[Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths]]'' wants to kill "Everyone who ever existed or will ever exist" and destroy all reality {{spoiler|because he feels it is the only "real choice" one could make, as for every choice one made, all other possibilities played out in another universe.}}

* ''[[The Fairly OddParents]]'' has two. First, Dark Laser really wants to blow up the Earth because...well, it's there. A more serious example is [[Big Bad|The Darkness]], a powerful and ancient entity who has destroyed countless worlds, including {{spoiler|Wonder World and Yugopotamia}}.

** Or [[For Science!]] for that matter.

* Trigon of ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' had the explicit goal of destroying "the world of mortals", though he did plan on remaking it in his own image afterwards. As this would mean a ''literal'' [[Hell on Earth]], it doesn't make him any less evil than the others on this list.

* In the ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' crossover movie ''[[Turtles Forever]]'', the [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2003|2k3 Shredder]], after being freed from his confinement in an asteroid, decides that in order to destroy all the turtles in the universe, {{spoiler|he must destroy reality itself, and sets out to do just that}}.

** {{spoiler|1=Utrom Shredder wasn't so into the destruction of reality at first. He just realized that the Ninja Turtles would persist in every reality so winning in one really meant nothing in the grand scheme of things. What he wanted to do was eliminate the TMNTs from existence, by destroying them on Turtle Prime (the original Mirage comic). Reality was shattering but only after he had left the 2003 dimension (which he didn't know was happening). Once he saw that the destruction of the 1984 Turtles would in fact break reality fully, ''that's'' when he threw down the gauntlet and decided reality would have to end if it meant he could win.}}
