Santa Claus, also known as Father Christmas, Saint Nicholas, and Kris Kringle, is a mythological figure who has appeared in several Hanna-Barbera and Warner Bros. Animation-produced cartoons.

Santa is noted for his jolly, good-hearted nature that he uses to spread to all over the world on December 25th, bringing to gifts to all the good little boys and girls.

To profit from the story, there will be mall Santas around this time, where men will dress up like the big guy and get kids to sit on their laps and tell them what they want for Christmas, while their parents stand in the background making a mental note, as to fool their child. Although in most cases, Santa is a real living person in the cartoons he appears in.

Santa Claus has been around as far back as Bedrock, B.C., which further adds to the anachronism of the "Before Christ" joke since the fairy tale story of Santa's existence has been placed in conjunction with the birth of Jesus Christ, who or some might say Santa is placed in a more important light than Jesus.
