In much the same way that many insist the James Bond franchise of films has run out space in which to turn, driving its Aston Martin series persona into a cul-de-sac of revenge and suggested toxic masculinity, so too does the character created by Stieg Larsson, Lisbeth Salander, facing her own accusations of misandry and brutality. An eye for an eye perhaps, a reflection of modern times and a heroine in which punches back harder than those who seek domination by sheer size and brute strength.
