Can be from any kind of media.

For me it's Margot from The Magicians (which is interesting because in the books she is anything but) and Jesse Faden from Control.

I rewatch that series every few years, it's awesome, in no small part thanks to Sam.

Lieutenant Ellen Ripley.

Trillian from hitchhikers guide to the galaxy. People see the book as satire but she really knew where her towel was.

Couldn't tell you why, but my mind went straight to Wonder Woman.

Aloy from the Horizon games was my first thought.

Zoe from Firefly, Tiffany Aching from Discworld are two that come to mind

Agnes Nutter, Good Omens.

Clobberella from Futurama.

But I rather prefer to read about real strong women. Like scientists, nobel prize winners, political figures and people of (contemporary) history. Or I just consume their content if they're an author, comedian or content creator.

Lara Croft from the first "Tomb Raider" movie, played by Angelina Jolie.

Nobody in particular stands out, but a thought I had a while back is that Game of Thrones was one of the rare pieces of modern cinema with a host of great female characters who, for the most part, actually had to put in effort to earn their status rather than just being born with it.

The first one I thought of was Mara Jade.

Fuck you Disney!

Margot was so awesome. Really loved that show.

Edit: Well, I loved the first three seasons, anyway. 😑

I'm really liking the evolution of Shallan Davar in the Stormlight Archives at the moment.

[-] Tekkip20@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Mirko from the popular My Hero Academia anime/manga series.

She doesn't take crap from anyone and fearlessly goes into battle.

Cate Blanchett's portrail of Elizabeth I (who I know was real, but I'm sure there was some creative license with the character).

Diana Taverner from Slow Horses.

Veronica Palmer from Better Off Ted.
