Both Harley Quinn and X-23 were conceived for animated TV adaptations, jumped to comics, and now movie adaptations...

Harley Quinn is a female...The Joker? Who is X-23? Does Lying Cat count for having male counterparts to her in Saga? Because if so, I vote Lying Cat.

I put it on the comics board so comics people would read it...
Harley Quinn is essentially a female Joker. She first appeared on Batman: The Animated Series in the 900s, then was in comics, then was featured in last year's Suicide Squad. X-23 is an opposite-sex clone of Wolverine who first appeared on X-Men: Evolution in the 2000s, then was in comics, and is about to be featured in Logan.

Actually, The Bat Man: The Animated Series aired hundreds of years after the 900s; it actually aired in the 1990s CE. The Bat Man superhero character hadn't even been invented yet in the 900s. |

I still haven't seen Suicide Squad, but I just saw Logan and there's no way X-23 isn't superior.

I can't speak to the movies (yet, in the case of X-23; no plans to ever voluntarily watch Suicide Squad) but in terms of comics I think Captain Marvel (the Marvel one, not the D.C. one that everybody calls Shazam anyway) would be a strong contender. That's a little different though, isn't it? That was more a female character picking up a male characters mantle, than creating a character to be a female equivalent. |

Also, it seems wrong to have this conversation without including Supergirl and Batgirl. The Barbara Gordon Batgirl, especially, has a multiple decade jump on Harley Quinn on the whole "character created for TV adaptation proves wildly popular and gets added to the comics" routine. |

Hawkwoman.
Not Hawkgirl, but the Shayera Thal from the late 80s/early 90s Hawkworld series.
