* The Joker has had himself quite a few:
* The Joker's topless female Nazi bodyguard Bruno in ''[[All Star DC Comics|All Star Batman]]'' and ''[[The Dark Knight Returns]].'' Yes, you read that right. She wears ''swastika pasties.''▼
** [[Harley Quinn]] is a classic example.
** Bruno's an independent operative in DKR. [[Those Two Bad Guys|Rob and Don]] work for her after the mutant leader's takedown.
▲** Then The Jokerthere's topless female Nazi bodyguard Bruno in ''[[All Star DC Comics|All Star Batman]]'', andwho appears later chronologically in ''[[The Dark Knight Returns]].''. Yes, you read that right. She- she wears ''swastika pasties.''. In the latter series, [[Those Two Bad Guys|Rob and Don]] work for her after the Mutant leader's takedown.
** Harley Quinn
* [[Black Panther]] has a highly trained group of female bodyguards called the Dora Milaje, who are technically speaking wives-in-waiting - but since he never ever sleeps with any of them, you can't really call them a harem. They call him 'husband', however. They're almost certainly inspired by the "Dahomey Amazons" - see the Real Life section below.
* In the [[Superman]] comics, Lex Luthor has a pair of female bodyguards named Mercy (a [[Canon Immigrant]] from ''[[Superman: The Animated Series]]'') and Hope. It has been hinted that they might be a pair of renegade Amazons.
* ''[[Transmetropolitan|]]'' has Spider Jerusalem]]'s "filthy assistants".
* [[Darkseid]] has the Female Furies, though they are only rarely used as bodyguards per se.
* In ''[[Strangers in Paradise]]'', [[The Mafia|Darcy]] [[Psycho Lesbian|Parker]] has the bleached-blonde amazonian twins [[Bastard Understudy|Tambi]] and [[Dumb Muscle|Bambi]] as her bodyguards and main thugs. {{spoiler|They are eventually revealed as heroine Katchoo's half-sisters.}}
* [[Wonder Woman]]'s mother, Queen Hippolyta, named Alkyone, Myrto, Charis, and Philomela as her personal guards. While they were indeed fanatically devoted to their queen, it... didn't work out that well, particularly since they didn't transfer that loyalty to the queen's ''daughter''.
* ''[[Batman|]]'': The Riddler]] had Echo and Query towards the end of his criminal career. They have yet to reappear since he became a reformed detective.
* Miho often acts as a bodyguard to Dwight in ''[[Sin City]]''.
* ''[[Nains (comics)|Nains]]'' got Kardum of the Talion served by half-elves Scili and Layss. They may dress like harlots, but when some of the guests act up, they quickly demonstrate that neither them nor their swords are decorative. He found them waiting to be sacrificed by the orcs who caught them after losing an absurd number of warriors to "those two harpies", ransomed for absurd money, and then got that Orc clan exterminated by the others' hands, just so that these two didn't have an "unfinished business" behind.
* Overlapping with [[Bodyguarding a Badass]], there's [[Darkseid]]'s Female Furies, a squad of [[Dark Action Girl]]s trained from birth by [[Evil Old Folks|Granny Goodness]] to be remorseless killing machines.
