Harry Bosch series by Michael Connelly. Lucas Davenport and/or Virgil Flowers by John Sandford are pretty badass as well.

Check out The Survivalist Series

The main character is John Rourke.

ETA: the Wiki description of him:

Doctor, survival and weapons expert, and ex-CIA paramilitary operations officer. He has keen sight, but is consequently sensitive to bright light and is usually wearing sunglasses, even at night. He is always armed with a pair of Detonics Combat Master .45 pistols in Alessi shoulder holsters, Colt Python and Colt Lawman revolvers, an A.G. Russell Sting 1A boot knife, and a shoulder sling with either a CAR-15 assault rifle or a Steyr-Mannlicher SSG sniper rifle.

Elric of Melnibone - I could tell you stories, but they would be spoilers.

A dark, gritty, kind of emo/gothy (but before that was fashionable), hippie, rebel badass.

Of course, he wasn't really the badass. It was that freakin' black sword, Stormbringer.

Eudora Welty. When she's on the prowl for an ice cream sandwich, no force can stop her.
