Top 10 Female Comic Book Anti-Heroes


they’ll double-cross you any chance they
get and they look good doing it
brilliant a dumped inability to hide one
super identity welcome to watchmojo.com
and today we’re counting down our picks
for the top ten female comic book
anti-heroes no no it’s impossible
before we begin we publish new videos
every day so be sure to subscribe for
more great content for this list we’ll
be looking at female characters in comic
books that blur the lines between hero
and villain however we won’t be
including the likes of The Scarlet Witch
and Black Widow who despite their
violent tendencies still lean towards
the side of good
number 10 Cassandra Cain many have worn
the mantle of Batgirl over the years but
few of them have been as deadly as the
daughter of David Kane and Lady Shiva
trained from birth to become a lethal
assassin
Cassandra’s cold upbringing essentially
left her mute however after seeing the
good in her she was approached by both
Batman and Oracle and allowed to join
the bat family of course when you’re
raised by two of the world’s most
ruthless killers showing mercy is bound
to be a learning curve number nine
Vampirella
don’t let the lack of clothing fool you
this Dame is deadly then again what else
would you expect from a vampire right
especially one that initially came from
outer space hailing from the planet
Dracul on Vampirella found herself
fleeing her dying world and landing on
earth various revisions have changed
aspects of her origins like Dracula on
now being a place in Hell Vampirella
being the daughter of the demon Lilith
and so on
what remains consistent though is her
determination to save the populace from
corrupted versions of her own race which
you can’t really do without tearing out
a few throats number eight Amanda Waller
who are you people that’s a national
security matter and if I were you I
wouldn’t probe the situation too closely
rich boy she’s made Batman flinch and
has a team of super villains on a leash
as you might expect Amanda Waller is not
a woman you wanna mess with as the
brains behind the Suicide Squad she’s
certainly not afraid of bending the
rules or risking civilian casualties if
she believes it’s for the greater good
in the world of flying men and monsters
this is the only way to protect our
country this has caused friction between
her and both villains and the Justice
League making it hard to tell which side
she’s on at any given moment unafraid to
make the tough calls
sooner or later anyone who crosses her
learns that nobody screws the whole wall
number seven Emma Frost excellent
question
though I wouldn’t call it a war exactly
that suggests both sides stand an equal
chance of winning from Hellfire Club to
member of the x-men this powerful
psychic is as beautiful as she is lethal
in the eyes of those who have come to
feel her icy touch aside from her vast
telekinetic abilities she also has the
power to transform her body into a near
unbreakable diamond form allowing her to
do damage on nearly all fronts her butt
rails across comics and other mediums
are numerous though she seems to always
find a way to get back into the x-men’s
good graces that might have something to
do with her getting frisky with Cyclops
in the wake of Jean Grey’s death but who
are we to judge right number six black
cat while these days she’s happily
thrown herself into the role of straight
villain this gorgeous thief was once one
of the few who could earn the heart of
everyone’s favorite wall-crawler alas
while they had more than their fair
share of moonlit kisses and confessions
of love ultimately they were quite
incompatible
Felicia Hardy’s yearning for the
criminal life and disinterest in
spider-man’s alter-ego ensured that the
two were doomed from the start that’s
not to say she isn’t a clingy one and as
Spidey has found out firsthand a
heartbroken Kitty like her can make for
a fierce adversary I had no idea you
felt that way
cat here kitty kitty kitty number five
x-23 and you thought Wolverine was a
beast
straight out of the Weapon X program
x-23 possesses all of the abilities that
her quote father has only with somehow
less humanity at least to start with
time with the x-men has managed to
mellow her to the point where she even
took over as the new Wolverine and while
she doesn’t quite have the bub down
quite as well as Logan her sheer
ferocity makes her more than worthy of
the name in terms of being able to take
a man apart like a bloodthirsty animal
though she is most certainly daddy’s
little girl
before mystique what’s the matter baby
you don’t think I look pretty like this
given the years of oppression and
Prejudice she suffered at the hands of
humans it’s easy to sympathize and
understand why this shapeshifter took up
arms alongside magneto in the name of
mutant supremacy from that point onwards
she has served as one of the x-men’s
most consistent and dangerous enemies
and in some cases an invaluable Ally
able to produce an infinite number of
disguises as well as lay down quite a
kickin
she has wiped the floor with both humans
and mutants several times over but hey
at least she’s trying to be a good
mother to Rogen Nightcrawler right I’m
afraid it’s too late for answers far too
late number three Hit Girl
[Music]
she’s cute she’s pint-sized and she
hasn’t even graduated from high school
and yet she’s killed a lot of people
trained by her vigilante father Hit Girl
is practically a living weapon whose
ideas of justice often involve leaving a
mountain of bodies in her wake
swords diamonds martial arts there’s
nothing that she can’t use to kill a
dude oh but don’t worry she’s totally
one of the good guys those people that
she left riddled with bullets and cut to
pieces were total douche bags anyway
number two Elektra now her exotic appeal
and choice of clothing during combat
have led many a marvel character to fall
head over heels for this elite assassin
just ask daredevil and the Punisher alas
she’s just as good at figuratively
breaking hearts says she is literally
breaking hearts by stabbing him her
mercenary lifestyle means she’s never
far from death and with a rather notable
disposition toward the living has made
it kind of impossible for her to form
any sort of stable relationship she’s
not a total lost cause however as
frequent team ups with other heroes have
at least allowed her to turn her
death-dealing ways towards the people
who mostly deserve it before we reveal
our number one pick here a few honorable
mentions
number one Catwoman perfect my laughs
let’s go home the princess of plunder
has been walking the tightrope between
common crook and defender of the
downtrodden for her entire life and
result has earned her the love of a
certain Dark Knight while her constant
need to break the rules and steal all
things shiny has often led her to burn
bridges but those she’s cared about she
just seems unable to resist the brooding
nature of Batman
good night mr. Wayne it’s hard to say if
the temptation of stealing will claim
her once again but considering that the
Caped Crusader recently proposed to her
maybe she’ll be fallen off of that
tightrope sooner than expected something
