Carrie Fisher Named Biggest Nerd Crush

Carrie Fisher's portrayal of Princess Leia topped a recent Maxim.com Hit List for Hottest Comic Book/Sci Fi Character.

The poll conducted by the men's magazine in February, named Fisher above Gillian Anderson's "Dana Scully" character as well as The Matrix's Carrie Ann Moss (Trinity).

The list rounded out with Grace Park (Battlestar Galactica) in fourth, Lara Croft (Tomb Raider), fifth; Famke Janssen (X-Men), sixth; Jeri Ryan (Star Trek: Voyager), seventh; Aeon Flux, eighth; Jennifer Garner (Alias), ninth; and Natasha Henstridge (Species).

Obviously, none of the voters were “Doctor Who” fans in the mid-80s otherwise Nicola Bryant’s Peri would’ve surely come out tops! ;)

No mention at all of Erin Grey as Wilma Deering ! :(

Ah Col. Wilma Deering - my God did she fuel my fantasies when I was a teen! Princess Leia in a metal bikini was still prime bodily-abuse fodder though...

Arlene Martel gets my vote. She appeared in The Twilight Zone (notably episodes called "What You Need" and "Twenty Two") and in The Outer Limits ("Demon with a Glass Hand") and most notably as Spock's bride to be, T'Pring in Star Trek (original series, season 2, episode 1) among many other appearances (Mission Impossible, The Monkees, The Man From U.N.C.L.E, Gunsmoke, The Untouchables etc etc etc).
