{{examples|Osama bin Laden in documentaries and fiction:}}
== Anime and Manga ==
* ''[[Family Guy]]'': Osama bin Laden is beaten up by [[Enfante Terrible|Stewie Griffin]] in the opening sequence of the episode "PTV", after being prevented from sending a hostile message to the United States.▼
* Osama is the only guy the H-[[Doujinshi]] ''Viva Freedom'' who doesn't get to have sex. (And serve him right!) Specifically, his men kill him for interrupting their orgy.▼
* ''[[South Park]]'': Osama bin Laden Has Farty Pants.▼
* An absolutely bizarre book entitled ''Where's Bin Laden?'' parodies the ''[[Where's Waldo?]]'' series with bin Laden and his minions hiding around the globe, in the midst of their own terrorist plots.▼
== Film ==
* Mentioned in [[Planet Terror]] as having been found and killed by [[Bruce Willis]]' character.▼
* ''[[James Bond (film)|James Bond]]'': A [[Captain Ersatz]] version of Bin Laden turns up in ''The Living Daylights'' as one of the good guys. This was before [[The Great Politics Mess-Up]] when Bin Laden was one of our stalwart allies whose band of brave freedom fighters were nobly trying to get the evil Soviet occupiers out of their countries.▼
* The movie ''[[Osama]]'' -- the first film to come out of Afghanistan since the Taliban banned films in 1996--is actually not about ''that'' Osama. Well, not ''explicitly'' about him.▼
* The 2008 Morgan Spurlock documentary ''[[Where In The World Is Osama Bin Laden]]''.
* ''Sore Thumbs'': He appears in an out-of-freakin'-nowhere context as the villain of a storyline in the webcomic.▼
== Live-Action TV ==
* [[Eminem]] plays him in the video for the [[D 12]] song "Without Me".▼
* Appeared in ''[[Dead Ringers (TV series)|Dead Ringers]]'', particularly in one memorable sketch where he went on a Blind Date-style show.▼
* He appears in a ''[[Bob the Angry Flower]]'' - ''[[Space Cat]]'' crossover strip from way back in 1998 {{spoiler|or rather someone else with the same name as it turns out.}}▼
== Literature ==
▲* An absolutely bizarre book entitled ''Where's Bin Laden?'' parodies the ''[[Where's Waldo?]]'' series with bin Laden and his minions hiding around the globe, in the midst of their own terrorist plots.
== Newspaper Comics ==
* ''[[Pearls Before Swine]]'': A controversial series had Osama hiding out in ''[[The Family Circus]]'' universe. Since it's a 50's type universe, they have no idea who he is.▼
== Video Games ==
* ''Fugitive Hunter,'' a [[PlayStation 2]] first-person shooter/fighting game, has Osama bin Laden as the final boss. You kickbox him to a gangsta rap about...beating up Osama bin Laden.
* There was a "Bin Laden in a Blender" web site on ''[[The Simpsons]]''. Implied in one episode (where Homer and Marge met each other as kids) that he was Homer's pen pal.▼
== Web Comics ==

== Web Original ==
* [[Homage]]: ''[[Broken Saints]]'' features an aging, bearded middle-eastern man of a fearsome disposition who speaks in quotations from the Qu'ran. His name is Osama. Coincidence? The character's first involvement in the series occurred ''before'' 9/11, his identity (as father of Iraqi [[Anti-Hero]] Oran) was revealed well afterwards, and his canon name is never mentioned in the series itself at all. Make of that what you will.
* A Brazilian comedy website, Charges.com.br, have Osama (and sidekick "Zuanta", pun on "sua [[wikipedia:Tapir|anta]]", "you ass") as frequent characters.▼
