Medea (from Medea) is one of the characters of all time, in the literal sense. One of the templates for Evil Witches, and *the* Wronged Woman, how could I do anything but love? I have deep appreciation for many versions (e.g. Hot Euripides Takes, the sheer feat of the opera) but she is just neat!!

Cassandra Igarashi (from The Wicked + The Divine) is such a brilliant, incisive character. From the get-go, she's one of the funniest and toughest people in the comic, and the angle on art and criticism that she brings to the text adds so much depth.
