10 Best Female Characters In The Marvel Cinematic Universe

2. Jessica Jones

This may be jumping the gun a little given that Jessica Jones' show isn't out for another few days but I'm pretty confident that she'll be deserving of being so high on this list when it does. So far we've only glimpsed Krysten Ritter's Jones in trailers and teasers, yet already we've seen her throw a man through a window, destroy a bar, smash her alarm clock with one hand, drink on the job and seduce Power Man. Not bad. Jessica Jones will be the first MCU property lead by a female superhero (as Peggy Carter is just a regular human hero). Jones is extremely strong, can jump very high and has advanced healing abilities. She's also dealing with PTSD and running her own PI agency, all while perpetually slightly buzzed on whisky. And she rocks a hoody and fingerless gloves like nobody's business.
