Best Comic Book Anti-Heroes
Deadpool is a fictional antihero created by Marvel who appears in their comics. Deadpool's first appearance was in New Mutants #98 by Rob Liefeld and Fabian Nicieza in February of 1991. His powers include self-healing and super strength. He is regarded as one of the funniest characters in comics due to his tendency to break the fourth wall. Catwoman? Really? The amount of jokes Deadpool could make about a villain who acts like a cat is infinite.
Ill indulge you people for not voting deadpool due to the certainty that most of you don't know him or know little of him.
Highly trained mercenary that sustains some crazy experiments to get cured from cancer. Thou these experiments work, granting him Wolverines regeneration (which is improved to insane levels in further experiments), something goes wrong and the cancer expands while he continues to regenerate constantly. This leads to some brain tissue issues that make him mad (and funny, FUNNY AS HELL) and totally emaciated. But, it also makes him dangerous as hell as he becomes chaotically random and practically invulnerable to mind control (his brain is constantly regenerating new cells that die due to his cancer), plus stronger and faster than any human (due to his regenerating, just like wolverine).
He is also the top of the noch of mercenaries, which ...more
BADASS should be at the top of anyone's favorite comic book characters list!
Deadpool is the best. He can teleport, he is imortal and has guns. Enough. Deadpool behind the punisher? I don't think so!
Deadpool is by far the best anti hero on this list. He is a wise cracking badass assassin who has no mercy. He can decapitate catwomen with his own hands. Catwomen is a joke
Catwoman is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics, commonly in association with the superhero Batman. ...read more. One of the most unique and intriguing anti-heroes, not to mention hot!
The Punisher is a fictional antihero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character was created by writer Gerry Conway and artist John Romita, Sr., with publisher Stan Lee green-lighting the name. I can't blame the Punisher's vengeance on the criminals and the villains who wronged the good sinless people and I like the Punisher from the Spider-Man animated series, Iron Man: Rise of Technovore and Avengers Confidential: Black Widow & Punisher on Marvel Animation better than the Live-Action version of the Punisher on Marvel Live-Action movies.
I only want two dark knights named the Punisher from the Spider-Man animated series, Iron Man: Rise of Technovore and Avengers Confidential: Black Widow & Punisher and Spawn from the 1997 HBO Series of the same name.
He is more of an anti hero then any other of them. He is unstoppable. He just kills in anger and never struggles when he is determined to do something. You automatically feel bad for him because his family death. He's a badass nonstop killing machine.
If he has an unstoppable goal that he will do anything to finish then he is an anti hero more than Catwoman. She just messes with people on the streets and steals stuff. She's not an anti hero, just a pitiful villain. Punisher is badass.
Rorschach is a fictional anti-hero who appears in American comic books published by DC Comics. He first debuted in the graphic novel Watchmen, published from 1986-1987. Rorschach was created by writer Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. What?!?!?! How is he not number 1. He is dark, and violent but he believes in what's right and he believes in the greater good. It's such a shame he gets killed in the comic but its sadder in the movie.
Rorschach is the ultimate anti hero. He is the step up of batman, proving he will stop at nothing to save the world and stop crime in New York. By far the best of this list.
He's literally the only true badass and real hero of Watchmen despite his violent and crazy behavior.
The true definition of "Anti-hero" and the best by large margin.
Wolverine is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, commonly associated with the X-Men. His powers and abilities include a healing factor and his signature adamantium claws and adamantium skeleton. Our favorite ass-kicker in the marvel comics! Plus, who the heck is Spider Jerusalem on this list? Is he a Jewish Spider-Man or what?
The best he is at what he does!
Wolverine is the best!
Venom, or the Venom Symbiote, is an alias used by several fictional characters appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, commonly in association with Spider-Man. All I can say is when Venom cleans house...he cleans the whole house!
This guy should be at either number 1 or 2 along with deadpool.
The Red Hood is an alias used by multiple fictional characters and a criminal organization appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. Red Hood shows the dangers of letting vigilantism go too far. In a way, he represents what Batman could have been without the no-kill rule. Red Hood's kicks butt with brutal efficiency...and looks pretty good while doing it!
Definitely deserves top 10
19? Jason Todd a.k.a. Red Hood is the best antihero, a Batman version without morals...
He has a sad childhood
Ghost Rider is the name of several fictional supernatural antiheroes appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. I can't blame the Ghost Rider's vengeance on the criminals and the villains who wronged the good sinless people and I like the Ghost Rider and I prefer Ghost Rider from "The Final Decision", "When Calls Galactus" and "Innocent Blood" the three episodes of X-Men (TV Series), Fantastic Four (TV Series) and The Incredible Hulk (TV Series) and Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. instead of the live action movie version of the Ghost Rider.
Flaming chain. Penance stare. Need I say more?
Most badass anti-hero with style!
Deathstroke is a fictional supervillain appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character was created by Marv Wolfman and George Perez. He is a mercenary and assassin who first appeared in The New Teen Titans #2. He is the man that went up against batman, the teen titans,superman, wonder woman, the JLA and won most of these fights. He is slade wilson otherwise known as deathstroke. He has a long history raining from when he was premiered as a hired gun to take out the teen titans after his son had failed. He has had a hard and tough life from the military to his family to losing his wife and two sons. He is able to have a plan that will work and will help him win. If you though batman was master of prep then you haven't met deathstroke
A complete bmf, he's smart strong quick, inhuman in power yet crushingly human in his life experience. He is just a simple man making his way through the universe.
Batman aka Bruce Wayne is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics.

In film, he has been portrayed by Lewis Wilson, Robert Lowery, Adam West, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Christian Bale and Ben Affleck. He has been voiced by a variety of voice actors, including Olan Soule, Kevin Conroy, Rino Romano, Diedrich Bader, and Jason O'Mara.
Spawn is a fictional character, an antihero and hellish Superhero that appears in a monthly comic book of the same name published by American company Image Comics. Spawn (HBO Series) could be a team Hell member to Scorpion (Mortal Kombat Legends) and Ghost Rider from Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H., the 90s Fantastic Four series and the 90s Incredible Hulk series.
The most bad-ass one on this list! Todd Mcfarlane's Spawn stays true to the word: anti-hero. A story for a mature audiance, He's got tons of powers (and guns) and ends up killing Satan AND God!
The dude became a GOD! (temporarily though). Still --> End of discussion.
Harley Quinn is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics, commonly as a sidekick of the Joker.
Hit-Girl is a fictional character appearing in the Kick-Ass series, published by Marvel Comics under the company's imprint Icon Comics.
Moon Knight is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by Doug Moench and Don Perlin, the character first appeared in Werewolf by Night #32. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he is portrayed by Oscar Isaac.
Definitely better than rorschach, since he is based off of The Question.
Morbius the Living Vampire, a.k.a. Dr. Michael Morbius, Ph.D., M.D., is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. He should have his own movie. He's awesome!
Judge Joseph Dredd is a fictional character created by writer John Wagner and artist Carlos Ezquerra. He first appeared in the second issue of 2000 AD, which is a British weekly anthology comic.
Wanda Maximoff, also known as the Scarlet Witch, is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. She is portrayed by Elizabeth Olsen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. She is thought to be one of the most powerful people in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and can control things with her mind. Her powers are a result of experiments by Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker, who used Loki’s scepter to give her and her brother Pietro Maximoff AKA Quicksilver, their powers. Her first appearance was against the Avengers during Avengers: Age Of Ultron. She then started serving Ultron before switching teams with her brother and joining the Avengers. She was part of the 50% ...read more.
Criminally underrated character. He's very cool
Robert Bruce Banner, also known as The Hulk or Bruce Banner, is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby and was portrayed by Edward Norton and Mark Ruffalo in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It's basically two heroes in one. Two heroes who are constantly fighting each other for control and at times working together to save the world. It's a tragic monster story of the Hulk which makes him so relatable and loved even though he is so ridiculously powerful.
