* Subverted by ''[[El Goonish Shive]]''; Diane fits the stereotype perfectly, but the setup turns it inside out. First, we see her as a "Mooching Tease Pimp" and Nanase keeps brushing off ''her'' attempts to get her into the [[Girl Posse]]. Then, Diane [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2007-06-19 does] one [[Sherlock Scan]] and [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2008-02-01 is shown] to be caring, implying that it's [[Jerkass Facade]]. She
** When she does not put an effort in posturing, well... [http://www.egscomics.com/index.php?id=1840 Diane rants], [[Tsundere|not that she's interested in Elliot or anything]]! [http://www.egscomics.com/index.php?id=2059 Diane is hiding] her fangirl-ishness (and maybe a little envy?) toward Nanase... poorly.
* Subverted by ''[[Footloose (webcomic)|Footloose]]''; Sparkle is very intelligent and somewhat [[Genre Savvy]]. {{spoiler|She still gets her comeuppance though.}}
* Subversion: In ''[[Penny and Aggie]]'', Penny is a popular girl, and seems like an Alpha Bitch at first (in contrast to the independent-minded Aggie). As the story progresses, however, Penny turns out to be a decent, observant, intelligent person, with most of the conflicts between her and Aggie being initiated by the latter.
Line 360 ⟶ 361:
* Though a minor character, Julia Greenhilt is clearly the Alpha Bitch of her magic school in ''[[The Order of the Stick]]'', complete with two tagalong friends with whom she gossips about other students' clothing choices.
* ''[[Eerie Cuties]]''

** The ''[[Spin-Off]]'' comic ''[[Magick Chicks]]'' starts turning Cerise into the Alpha Bitch, much to Melissa's chagrin. And their new school already has an Alpha Bitch that they want overthrow. Faith is a [[Schoolgirl Lesbian]] and [[Telepath]] who uses [[Emotion Control]] to make herself queen of a neglected and poorly used harem at their all-girl school. She seriously dates a boy from outside and treats girls as disposable conquests. The main plot of ''Magick Chicks'' is transfer Alpha Bitch v. current Alpha Bitch v. wannabe Alpha Bitch.
* In the ''[[Scary Go Round]]'' [[Spin-Off]] ''Giant Days'', where Esther de Groot goes to university, she meets three former head girls, each of whom was probably the Alpha Bitch back at their respective schools. Although instead of (or perhaps "in addition to") cheerleading, each of them knows a specific style of [[Dark Action Girl|martial arts]].
Line 369 ⟶ 370:
* ''[[Zodiac Blues]]'' gives us Lia, who calls even her boyfriend a 'loser'.
* ''[[Homestuck]]'' has Vriska, who uses violence, intimidation and ''actual mind control'' to secure her status as a high-ranking and powerful SGRUB player.
