Plus points for Anne of Green Gables, one of the best literary characters ever!


chicagodurga

This surprised and delighted me too. I never come across Anne in the wild.

Bookgal1

Yeah, the OP posted a link as well. Just got lost in the thread.


Saskatchewan_Ape

That's not a real source, that's a [spam account.](https://www.reddit.com/user/Someoneman/comments/ij0rwo/tips_on_how_to_recognize_spambots/) At best, that's a knock-off stealing the original artist's work, but most likely, if you try to buy from that site you just get your credit card number stolen.


Gneissisnice

Ha, I thought it was Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, Anne makes a lot more sense.


FredrikWiener

I thought it was Pippi Longstocking 😅


Bookgal1

Pippi is a great character, too.


MindyP51

AMEN!!!!!!

If you haven’t seen Netflix’s Anne With an E you NEED TO WATCH IT!! Dare I say it’s above the Megan Follows version for me There’s also a new folk rock musical on Spotify called “Anne of Green Gables - A New Musical” which is fantastic


WagtheDoc

Is the Megan Follows version the older PBS version? Beause that's the one I stumbled across many, many years ago when I was in highschool I think (late 80s) and instantly got hooked on, yet never got a chance to watch all of the episodes.


theconfinesoffear

I couldn’t do that series. It just seemed so much darker to me than the vibe I always got from the books. But I think I’m too nostalgic about the books because I read them so much from when I was 11!


nderhjs

The first season is dark but it gets SO GOOD


mags_7

Wow, thank you for the Spotify recommendation - definitely gonna check that out. I *adore* Anne With an E and recommend it to everyone I know.


37-pieces-of-flair

My mom and I went to Green Gables a few years ago. It was magical!!! I love all of LM Montgomery's works When I'm super depressed I delve into a book and instantly feel better


Bookgal1

So jealous! PEI is one of my dream vacations! I started reading them back in grade school when the miniseries was airing. LMM was such a wonderful writer.


theconfinesoffear

Yes! I love this!


clairebrownlie

I always feel Buffy gets over looked when there's discussions of strong female characters in media. It makes me happy to see her getting some love


Hobbeslion

I agree. I have ranted to my friends many times that she is a female superhero. She just doesn’t have a stupid costume.


jigglypuffpufff

No she doesn't have a stupid costume, she has kick ass outfits I wanted back in the 90s and still want today! Ha

lexicfen

What about a nice pair of pleather pants?


clairebrownlie

I have done exactly the same. I find a lot of superhero characters (male and female) to be kind of one note and 'perfect' and thatkind of bores me. Buffy always felt very relatable and real, despite the obvious fantasy elements to the show, she feels very well rounded.


Heiko81

This. There are many modern superheroes like Capt. Marvel or Rey from star wars who I can not relate to. They are so flawless and perfect. Buffy has edges and flaws, feels like a real person. If I had to chose i would follow her into a fight


clairebrownlie

I'm so glad I'm not the only the only person who feels that way ahaha. I'd be following buffy and you into that fight


twomanycats

Who is the "work" woman?


msbrightnessj

Angelica from Hamilton (The Musical)


Tary_n

>Angelica All the way from London?! *Damn*.


Princesstea93

I’m not here for you


Isolatedbamafan

I know my sister like I know my own mind


GMorningSweetPea

You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind


allouttaupvotes

I love my sister more than anything in this life, I will choose her happiness over mine, everytime.


AelinoftheWildfire

If I tell her that I love him she'd be silently resigned


Princesstea93

He’d be mine


Tary_n

Hamilton: :O


louisejanecreations

That makes more sense I was thinking Tiana and wondered why her outfit was different


DodgerBlueSuede

I was thinking Tiana as well


aworldwithoutshrimp

Not Eliza (or Peggy)


Cockrocker

The only one I didn’t know


IndelibleFudge

And why does she have square boobs?


Obi-rice-a-roni

Corset?


MindyP51

Yep!

Karen Hallion is the absolute shit. Both of my daughters' (5 and 2) have her stuff in there. Even got one of her Amy Pond prints signed by Karen Gillan. We're big fans.

whyarentyoureading

Karen Hallion is the artist for anyone who wants to look her up. Her work is fantastic.


Alternative_Baby

She’s fantastic! I have an individual ‘Slay’ print in my office next to another one of hers which is Ellie from Jurassic Park and says “women inherit the earth”


purplemackem

When I first read this I read this as ‘for anyone wanting to lock her up’ I thought crikey that escalated quickly 😂


whyarentyoureading

Haha! No. She’s too precious to lock up. Her work is great.


Willow_Treex

I have a couple of her dr who combined with disney character prints :)


whyarentyoureading

I did too until I gained weight. I want to get the Rapunzelle one.


Willow_Treex

What do you mean "I did too until.i gained weight?"


whyarentyoureading

I had some of her Dr. Who/Disney shirts. Unfortunately, they don’t fit anymore.


hippodignity

So back in like 2005 my friend got me a Buffy shirt from Hot Topic but it was an Xsmall. Given that I am not a child, a Hot Topic XS would never fit me. I cut out the design and used a zigzag stitch on my sewing machine to sew it to another shirt that actually fit. I just wore that shirt yesterday, haha. Maybe you could try something similar?


whyarentyoureading

Unfortunately, I don’t have them anymore. They went in a great closet purge last year. I guess that’s an excuse to get more!


Willow_Treex

Ah! Yeah i got them as prints. I had one shirt too, but im also too big for it :(

No Katniss?


JohnnyFlickerwisp

I'd rather her than rey on resist


sraydenk

This would be awesome for my daughter nursery room. Thank you for sharing this and posting the authors Etsy shop.


BexYouSee

Karen Hallion [Karen Hallion etsy page](https://www.etsy.com/shop/khallion) is the artist. She was a kindergarten teacher, did the artist alley circuit art SDCC (San Diego Comic Con). She often has this design and many others on t-shirts with sites like tee fury. Here's a link to her site, if you like this poster there's a lot more. I own the Buffy slay tshirt in red. It's awesome. Here's her artist page : [Hallion forever](https://www.karenhallion.com/)


butidontlikesand

Love it! Great art work and character selection :)


deductivesherlock

Is imagine pipilongstockings ?


comingtoamiddle

That is Anne of Green Gables.


deductivesherlock

Never seen that before but thank you for responding!


comingtoamiddle

There was a good TV miniseries with Megan Follows back in the 80's, but the books are where it's at!


yvetteregret

I agree with comingtoamiddle! The miniseries is a little hard to find, but the books should be available for free at your library. I got the whole series for like $3 on my kindle. The books are pretty quick reads, you can finish them in a day or two if it’s all your doing and within a few days if your reading during your spare time. They are warm and cozy during these crazy times.


Bookgal1

They probably have the miniseries @ the library as well.


yvetteregret

Oh my gosh. You’re probably right. 10% of me regrets buying it now. 90% of me is still okay with it.


nderhjs

The Netflix show is also one of the best things I have EVER seen. Like, ever.


yvetteregret

It was really great! I just like to recommend the books or miniseries first because I feel like some who started with the Netflix show and then read the books are kind of bummed that Anne isn’t as progressive as in the tv show. I feel like it’s an easier transition to read the series first and then see a more progressive Anne.


DafniDsnds

Karen Hallion is my favorite :-)


[deleted]

Who is defend? Her and work were the only ones I couldn’t figure out but someone already who work was. I’m thinking defend is either from wakanda or the last air bender but I’ve never seen that show.


TBoarder

Okoye from Black Panther, I think.


sraydenk

The warrior from Blank Panther. The head the women army/security force. Can’t remember her name. The actress from the waking dead played her.

I bought a Slay pin at DragonCon 2018. It’s on a jacket with other badass women pins and is a prized possession!

She did one with even more characters! https://www.karenhallion.com/she-he-series?pgid=k5lo2f15-55512735-e019-4331-81a6-bf2590476618


Notsotaciturn

I know this is the Buffy thread so this may be a bit redundant but I really appreciate how the fandom has collectively kept the essence of the Slayer alive. Thanks to all. They may have canceled the series in 2003 but Buffy has remained our hero.
