favorite comic antihero

I like ghost rider and deadpool

Jotaro Kujo, Wolverine, and Daredevil (does he count)

Hard one. I will just do my top five.

Wolverine

Punisher

Grifter

Catman

Midnighter/Red Hood tie

Batman

@extremis: uh you know Bats is a superhero right?

Wolverine.

@kingmark14: the same guy who beats up or tortures people for information? The same guy who works outside the law as a vigilante?

Not exactly ethical. So yeah, he's an anti hero.

Spider-Man works outside the law too as a vigilante, and he isn't an anti hero. While Batman does beat up and torture people for information, he's still highly (almost obsessively) moralistic with things such as his no kill code. Ultimately, I'd call Batman a dark hero, not an anit hero.

If Batman doesn't count, then WOLVERINE.

@wolverine08: you can call him a "dark hero" if that terminolgy suits you but youve already admitted what I said. You're either a hero or you're not. Everything in between would fall under the umbrella of anti hero or anti villain depending.

Yeah he's not as hardcore as punisher or others but he's still unethical at times. Thusly, an anti hero. The end.

Suicide Squad & Secret Six.

Thinking outside the box.

If were thinking vigilantes who act outside of traditional moralistic ideals, then I'll throw my boy Luther Strode into the mix. But truth be told, when he plays the role of Anti-Hero, its hard to think of anyone who plays it better than Magneto.

deadpool, taskmaster.

The Secret Six, yes, all of them.

If Batman doesn't count, I'll say Deathstroke. If Deathstroke doesn't count, maybe Catwoman?

Hit-Girl

Batman, deadpool 2nd.....though I did just find out my favorite all time hero (from a Novel) recently got turned into a comic book (40 years after the novel, but still) so if that counts... ELRIC of Melnebone all the way....

@rulerofthisuniverse

A main character in a dramatic or narrative work who is characterized by a lack of traditional heroic qualities, examples (not all inclusive) such as idealism, courage, morality, nobility, or possessing fortitude, or therein blurring the lines of one or more of these heroic character traits, sometimes therefore the lines between hero and villain.

an Anithero, is also sometimes called a Flawed Character, or a Flawed Hero.

so by this definition, Superman is the epitamy of what a Antihero is not, and Batman definitely falls in place in the antihero definition. As well, are their any cowardly superheroes out there? they are antiheroes too.

Deadpool, Punisher, Boba Fett

Magneto and Hulk are my favorites. Then Venom and Wolverine are next in line.

Aquaman, goes to a diner and eats all the ocean life he's suppose to be protecting. Talk about walking that line of Hero and Villain!

@bierschneeman: thank you. Exactly my point. Batman is definitely an anti hero.

And there's not enough cowardly anti heroes. I can't even think of one.

Deadpool and Punisher.

Cliche as it may be I've gotta go with the Punisher. First comic I ever bought was a Punisher book.

*points to your back* "I got it"

OHH I just thought of a cowardly Superhero, That mothman, or whatever his name is, the flying guy from Watchmen, and subsequently Before Watchmen. He was scared to death everytime he took to the air, because he half killed himself several times during the testing phase, he was than described as a jittery jumpy fellow, not quite there, and I want to say he's the one who ended up insane because of it (his fear won out, eventually if this is the case)

@longbowhunter: not cliche at all!

There's only so many good anti heroes out there really IMO. And Punisher is arguably the quintessential anti hero.

Not in order:

• V
• The Corinthian (not sure if he counts)
• Magneto
• X-23
• Fantomex
• Hawkeye (Ultimate)
• The Secret Six (under Gail Simone)
• The Doom Patrol

my favorite antihero of all time, Is Indiana Jones, and I know they made Indiana Jones Comics, after the fact, Does that count? or do they have to originate in comic form.

if they have to originate in comic book form, i'll go with New52 Batgirl, mostly because they took a character who is decidedly heroic and forceful of will, and made her an anti-hero, suddenly she is unsure of herself, and afraid, as everything a villain does makes her reel back in memory to when she was shot. that kind of dynamic change I think is amazing. ohh Hal Jordon would be my second from comic book antihero

someone listed Venom?? decidely NOT an Anithero, an antihero has to be a Hero, Venom NEVER plays the hero.

@extremis: Frank really is the template for an anti-hero.

@husk: the Flash Thompson version is a antihero

Frank Castle

Hulk

@kgb725: how is hulk an anti hero?

Deathstroke.

@bob808: yo I like that art

Punisher , Deadpool & Hitman
