Blondie is a minor character in xkcd, but has had several appearances without ever being named in general.  
  
'''Blondie''' is a [[stick figure]] character in [[xkcd]]. She is distinguished by her long blonde hair. Like most other xkcd characters, she does not necessarily represent the same character from comic to comic.
+
One of the reasons for this is that there are already three [[:Category:Comics by minor characters| minor characters]] that has the same appearance as Blondie,  and  is thus subcategories of her, just like [[Rob]] is for [[Cueball]]. Those three are the teacher [[Miss Lenhart]], the hacker [[Mrs. Roberts]] and the adult version of her [[:Category:1337|leet]] daughter  [[Elaine Roberts]].  The Roberts are always mentioned by name, and Mrs. Roberts has so far only been used six times, and Elaine has only been drawn like Blondie in the last four comics in the [[:Category:1337|1337]] series. Miss Lenhart has only been named and drawn twice, but her name has been used three more times, and she has been drawn like Blondie nine times at the time Blondie was created as a character (after comic [[1731]] was released).

The reason she is finally recognized as a "new" character was that with [[1699: Local News]] she had been used three time in less than 100 comics as a {{w|news anchor}}. It turned out that she is by far the most used character for presenting news reports. After this was realized there was a [[explain_xkcd:Community_portal/Proposals#New_character_category_for_blonde_woman_news_reporter_.28from_1699.29|community portal discussion]] regarding this character and no one objected to the name Blondie with the other three as sub characters under her name, just like [[Rob]] is a sub category for [[Cueball]].
Blondie is a minor character in xkcd, but has had several appearances without ever being named in general.
 
  
She is mainly just another woman that [[Randall]] can use when he wishes to give a woman a specific characteristic so to set her aside from the more commonly used women [[Megan]] and [[Ponytail]].
+
She is not the same character from comic to comic. She is mainly just another woman that [[Randall]] can use when he wishes to give a woman a specific characteristic so to set her aside from the more commonly used women [[Megan]] and [[Ponytail]]. Note that if Ponytail took her hair out she would look like Blondie, but the same would go with [[White Hat]] and [[Black Hat]] vs. Cueball if they took of their hats.
  
There are 2 other [[:Category:Minor characters|minor characters]] who have the same appearance as Blondie, and are thus subcategories of her, just like [[Rob]] is for [[Cueball]]. Those two are the teacher [[Miss Lenhart]], and the hacker [[Mrs. Roberts]].
+
She is rarely depicted with other women like Megan and Ponytail, but in her first appearances she talks with Megan in [[59: Graduation]]. But when she take on her most reprized role as a news anchor she is typically alone on screen.
  
She, together with [[Cueball]], is one of the most used character for presenting news reports. She is occasionally also portrayed as a mathematician, possibly meant to represent Miss Lenhart. However, since she is not actually teaching, she is still referred to as Blondie. For more information, see to the [[Miss_Lenhart#Math teacher|Math teacher section]] on Miss Lenhart's page. Blondie appears to be the wife of a Cueball-like in [[275: Thoughts]]. In [[416: Zealous Autoconfig]] and [[342: 1337: Part 2]], both Miss Lenhart and Mrs. Roberts are portrayed as mothers with at least two children. Blondie is also depicted as a mother in a few other comics, such as:
