Tank Girl
Few characters burst onto the comics scene with the anarchic, unhinged energy of Tank Girl, who roared into existence in 1991 courtesy of the brilliantly deranged imagination of Jamie Hewlett. A Copper/Modern Age original published across an impressive 24 years, she's the kind of chaotic, irreverent icon who feels like a genuine product of her era — loud, confrontational, and utterly unforgettable. Her pages are populated by a wild cast including Booga, Rebecca Buck, and even the legendary Judge Dredd himself, and her adventures sprawl across titles like Judge Dredd Megazine and Tank Girl: Visions of Booga under Rebellion's banner. If you're looking for a character who embodies the spirit of comics as pure, gleeful subversion, Tank Girl is absolutely worth your time.
