List of fictional antiheroes explained

This list is for characters in fictional works who exemplify the qualities of an antihero—a protagonist or supporting character whose characteristics include the following:

• imperfections that separate them from typically heroic characters (such as selfishness, cynicism, ignorance, and bigotry);^[1]
• lack of positive qualities such as "courage, physical prowess, and fortitude", and "generally feel helpless in a world over which they have no control";^[2]
• qualities considered dark traits, usually belonging to villains, (amorality, greed, violent tendencies, etc.)^[3] that may be tempered with more human, identifiable traits that blur the moral lines between the protagonist and antagonist.^[4]

Each of these examples has been identified by a critic as an antihero, although the classification remains fairly subjective. Some of the entries may be disputed by other sources and some may contradict all established definitions of antihero.
